Air-stable n-type field effect transistors were fabricated with an axially oxygen substituted metal phthalocyanine, tin (IV) phthalocyanine oxide (SnOPc), as active layers. The SnOPc thin films showed highly crystallinity on modified dielectric layer, and the electron field-effect mobility reached 0.44cm2V−1s−1. After…

The improvement in the phase change characteristics of Ge2Sb2Te5 (GST) films for phase change random access memory applications was investigated by doping the GST films with SiO2 using cosputtering at room temperature. As the sputtering power of SiO2 increased from 0to150W, the activation energy for crystallization in…

The unique geometry of multilayer thin films, with layer thicknesses on the nanoscale, gives rise to a wide range of novel properties and behavior that are not observed in the bulk. The novel behavior is critically dependent on the microstructure of the films. This paper reviews the use of a range of transmission elec…

Epitaxial ZnO thin films were grown on c-plane sapphire substrates by rf magnetron sputtering at room temperature followed by a rapid thermal annealing process. We found that crystallinity of the films was strongly affected by the partial oxygen pressure during deposition. Both x-ray diffraction and transmission elect…

Abstract Poly(phenylene sulfide) (PPS)/multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs) conductive composites were prepared through the simple mixing of PPS granules with MWNT powder and subsequent compression. The electrical properties as a function of MWNT loading clearly showed a low percolation threshold of about 0.22 vol % a…

We analyze cloaking of transverse electric (TE) fields through homogenization of radially symmetric metallic structures. The two-dimensional circular cloak consists of concentric layers cut into a large number of small infinitely conducting sectors which is equivalent to a highly anisotropic permittivity. We find that…

We report the results of spectral, structural and electrical investigations on plasticized polyaniline/polymethylmethacrylate blend films (PAni/PMMA), obtained by the co-dissolution method using three different molecular weights of the PMMA matrix. The use of dibuthylphtalate as a plasticizer allowed us to obtain free…

Strain is generally known to increase the coercive field of a ferroelectric thin film as compared to a stress-free single crystal or a strain-relaxed film. We studied the coercive fields and remanent polarizations of (001)-oriented epitaxial barium titanate thin films using the phase-field approach. It is demonstrated…

A novel Eu 2+ ion doped triple phosphate Ca 8 MgGd(PO 4 ) 7 was synthesized by a general high-temperature solid-state reaction in a reductive atmosphere. X-ray powder diffraction analysis confirmed the formation of single phase Ca 8 MgGd(PO 4 ) 7 . Scanning electron microscopy indicated that the microstructure of the…

This paper describes the optical responses and memory effects of poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT)/CdSe quantum dot (QD) thin-film transistors (TFTs). TFTs incorporating P3HT/CdSe QD blends as the active layer exhibited higher photocurrents than did the corresponding P3HT-only devices because the heterojunction between P3…

ZnO nanoparticles were synthesized and conjugated to the porphyrin derivative, meso-tetra (o-amino phenyl) porphyrin (MTAP). Energy transfer from the ZnO nanoparticles to MTAP was investigated and the energy transfer rate was measured to be as high as 83%. Compared with MTAP and ZnO alone, ZnO-MTAP conjugates have low…

A new approach for the realization of highly dispersive dielectric transmission gratings is presented, which enables the suppression of any reflection losses and, thus, 100% diffraction efficiency. By applying a simple two-mode-model a comprehensible explanation as well as a theoretical design of such a reflection-fre…

We examine the plastic deformation of a model polymeric glass under tension. Local plastic events are found at extremely small strains, well below the yielding point, in a regime where the material is traditionally described as perfectly elastic. A distinct relationship is identified between these irreversible displac…
