Surface texturing by solution deposition has been developed for antireflection in solar cells. The surface texture is formed by a monolayer of microscale silica particles partially immersed into a spin-on-glass film with a thickness less than the height of the particles. When the silica particles have a spherical shap…

An unusual and rather large transient lateral photovoltage (LPV) has been observed in La0.9Sr0.1MnO3∕SrNb0.01Ti0.99O3 and La0.7Sr0.3MnO3∕Si heterojunctions under the nonuniform irradiation of pulsed laser. The irreversible LPVs on both sides of a p-n junction challenge the well established model for LPV in conventiona…

Phosphors with ultraviolet (UV) mechanoluminescence (ML) SrAl2O4:Ce (SAOCe) and SrAl2O4:Ce,Ho (SAOHoCe) were reported in this letter. The results reveal that the ML emission band is located at 375nm similar to photoluminescent (PL) peak, which indicates that ML is emitted from the same center of Ce3+ ions as PL. Furth…

First-principles calculations are employed to study the structural and magnetic properties of SrC and BaC in four different phases: rocksalt, CsCl, zinc blende, and NiAs. The obtained results indicate that both compounds show half-metallic behavior in all phases except the CsCl-type structure. Among them the rocksalt…

The authors prepared Yb-doped bismuth iron oxide ceramics (Bi1−xYbxFeO3, with 0⩽x⩽0.20) by rapid liquid phase sintering method and investigated the material’s structures and electrical properties. The x-ray diffraction measurements showed that the doping of Yb has induced noticeable lattice distortion in the ceramics,…

A property associated with a vortex structure becomes evident from an analysis of confinement phenomena of magnetic oscillations in a quasi-2D ferrite disk with a dominating role of magnetic-dipolar (non-exchange-interaction) spectra. The vortices are guaranteed by the chiral edge states of magnetic-dipolar modes whic…

We propose a double channel mechanism for the formation of charged excitons (trions); they are formed through bi- and tri-molecular processes. This directly implies that both negatively and positively charged excitons coexist in a quantum well, even in the absence of excess carriers. The model is applied to a time-res…

The authors report high-density carrier accumulation and a gate-induced insulator-to-metal transition in ZnO single-crystalline thin-film field effect transistors by adopting electric double layers as gate dielectrics. Hall effect measurements showed that a sheet carrier density of 4.2×1013cm−2 was achieved. The highe…

Recently, there have been dramatic advances in the miniaturization of electromechanical devices. Most of the micro- and nanoelectromechanical systems (MEMS-NEMS) operate in the resonant modes1. The micron-, and, the more, the submicron-sizes devices, are driven usually by electrostatic forces, as piezoelectric and ele…

We calculate the ground and excited electron and hole levels in spherical Si quantum dots inside $\mathrm{Si}{\mathrm{O}}_{2}$ in a multiband effective mass approximation. The Luttinger Hamiltonian is used for holes, and the strong anisotropy of the conduction electron effective mass in Si is taken into account. As th…

Size- and shape-dependent property modifications of semiconductor nanocrystals have been a subject of intense interest because of their potential for future engineering devices. The bandgap and related optical-property tuning of these materials are mainly governed by the nature of their band edges. In addition, fusing…

Magnetic strings: Single-molecule-magnet-like [Mn3IIIO] units are strung into two chain compounds along the magnetic easy axis with formate and azide anions, respectively, as bridges (see picture). The enhanced uniaxial anisotropy and intrachain coupling of these two chain compounds mean that they act as single-chain…

The charge transport in spin-coated poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene):poly(styrenesulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS) has been investigated as a function of temperature and electric field. Both the magnitude and the transport mechanism are found to be strongly anisotropic. This striking behavior is quantitatively explained in terms…
