Thin film transistors (TFTs) with In and Ga-free multicomponent Zn–Sn–Zr–O (ZTZO) channel layers were fabricated using the cosputtering approach. The incorporation of ZrO2 into the Zn–Sn–O (ZTO) films increased the contact resistance, which led to the degradation of the transport properties. In contrast, the threshold…

A series of fluorenyl-substituted carbazole linear triads and starbursts were synthesized by the Suzuki and Sonogashira coupling reactions. In these compounds, a fluorene unit is connected to the 1,8; 2,7; or 3,6 positions of the central carbazole ring to form linear triads or linked to the 1,3,6,8 positions to form s…

From analysis of the in-plane resistivity ρ(ab)(T) of La(2-x)Sr(x)CuO(4), we show that normal state transport in overdoped cuprates can be delineated into two regimes in which the electrical resistivity varies approximately linearly with temperature. In the low-temperature limit, the T-linear resistivity extends over…

A method is proposed to determine the fraction of the tautomeric forms of the imidazole ring of histidine in proteins as a function of pH, provided that the observed and chemical shifts and the protein structure, or the fraction of H(+) form, are known. This method is based on the use of quantum chemical methods to co…

We have demonstrated few-electron quantum dots in Si/SiGe and InGaAs, with occupation number controllable from N=0. These display a high degree of spatial symmetry and identifiable shell structure. Magnetospectroscopy measurements show that two Si-based devices possess a singlet N=2 ground state at low magnetic field,…
