A supersaturation of nitrogen atoms is found in the surface layer of microstructured silicon after femtosecond (fs) laser irradiation in NF3. The average nitrogen concentration in the uppermost 50 nm is about 0.5 ± 0.2 at. %, several orders of magnitude higher than the solid solubility of nitrogen atoms in silicon. Th…

Surfactant induced ordering of 2D and 3D colloidal crystal photonic crystals is possible on metallic substrates by dip-coating at fast rates (≈1 mm/min). Ordered monolayer opals on conductive gold-coated silicon substrates behave as a 2D diffraction grating. The method allows high throughput, ordered colloidal crystal…

The structures of the strontium polyhydrides, SrH n with n > 2, under pressure are studied using evolutionary algorithms coupled with density functional theory calculations. A number of phases with even n are found to be thermodynamically stable below 150 GPa. Particularly interesting is the SrH 4 stoichiometry, which…

Thin-film solar cells based on silicon have emerged as an alternative to standard thick wafers technology, but they are less efficient, because of incomplete absorption of sunlight, and non-radiative recombinations. In this paper, we focus on the case of crystalline silicon (c-Si) devices, and we present a full analyt…
