We determine the role that a two-dimensional electron gas, formed at a ZnMgO/ZnO heterojunction, plays in shaping the corresponding temperature dependence of the low-field electron Hall mobility. This analysis is cast within the framework of the model of Shur et al. [M. Shur et al., J. Electron. Mater. 25, 777 (1996)]…

The advance of lithographic resolution has made it necessary to adopt extremely thin photoresist films for the fabrication of “2× nm” structures in order to mitigate problems such as resist collapse during development but limiting achievable etch depths at the same time. By using multilayer hardmask stacks, a consider…

Au was deposited on ultrastable Y (USY) zeolites using an ion-exchange method. Up to 5.5 wt% Au was introduced into the NH4-form of USY zeolites. In contrast, deposition of Au hardly took place on the H- and Na-forms of Y-type zeolites, NH4-forms of mordenite, and ZSM-5. Treatment of the Au-loaded USY zeolite in a H2…

The phase behavior of block copolymer based supramolecular complexes polystyrene-block-poly(4-vinylpyridine) (PS-b-P4VP) and amphiphilic pentadecylphenol (PDP) molecules resembles the phase behavior of conventional block copolymers. Several PS-b-P4VP(PDP) complexes are found to self-assemble into gyroid nanostructures…
