Self‐Trapped Hole Migration and Defect‐Mediated Thermal Quenching of Luminescence in α‐ and β‐Ga2O3

Advanced Functional Materials, Volume 36, Issue 13, 12 February 2026.
Temperature‐dependent photoluminescence and first‐principles calculations reveal self‐trapped hole migration as the microscopic origin of thermal quenching in α‐ and β‐Ga2O3. The low migration barrier in α‐Ga2O3 enables defect trapping and enhances blue luminescence, while the higher barrier in β‐Ga2O3 preserves ultraviolet emission at elevated ...

High temperature thermoelectric efficiency in Ba8Ga16Ge30 [PDF]

, 2008
The high thermoelectric figure of merit (zT) of Ba8Ga16Ge30 makes it one of the best n-type materials for thermoelectric power generation. Here, we describe the synthesis and characterization of a Czochralski pulled single crystal of Ba8Ga16Ge30 and ...

Successive Orthorhombic Distortions in Kagome Metals by Molecular Orbital Formation

Advanced Materials, Volume 38, Issue 8, 6 February 2026.
Orthorhombic distortions in kagome metals break the symmetry required for exotic charge order. Synchrotron X‐ray diffraction of NdRu3Si2 reveals successive orthorhombic transitions driven by molecular orbital formation between kagome layers. The frustrated kagome lattice hosts degenerate patterns of kagome dimers whose short‐range correlations produce ...

Investigating the Structural Factors Influencing the Magnetic Interaction between Individual Copper Spins in the CuCu4 Metallacrown Complex, from Its Bulk Form to Its Adsorption on Au(111)

Advanced Materials Interfaces, Volume 13, Issue 4, 17 February 2026.
The Cu(II)[12‐MCCu(II)N(Shi)‐4] metallacrown complex (CuCu4) is studied to examine how geometric transformations affect magnetic coupling between copper spins by using ultraviolet photoemission spectroscopy and DFT calculations for the bulk phase and CuCu4 adsorbed on Au(111). While adsorption minimally affects tDOS, exchange coupling constants between

Pr9.33(SiO4)6O2 Crystals: Czochralski Growth and Near UV-Visible FR Performance

Crystals, 2017
Pr9.33(SiO4)6O2 crystals have been grown by the Cz-method for the first time for near UV–visible Faraday rotation applications. Rietveld refinement of XRD data demonstrates that the compound crystallizes in the oxyapatite structure with space group P63/m,

Terahertz generation in Czochralski grown periodically poled Mg:Y:LiNbO3 via optical rectification

, 2005
Using a canonical pump-probe experimental technique, we studied the terahertz (THz) waves generation and detection via optical rectification and mixing in Czochralski-grown periodically poled Mg:Y:LiNbO3 (PPLN) crystals.

Anomalous optical surface absorption in nominally pure silicon samples at 1550 nm [PDF]

, 2017
The announcement of the direct detection of Gravitational Waves (GW) by the LIGO and Virgo collaboration in February 2016 has removed any uncertainty around the possibility of GW astronomy. It has demonstrated that future detectors with sensitivities ten

Tandem Takeoff: Powering Tomorrow with Industrial‐Grade Perovskite/Silicon Solar Cells

Advanced Energy Materials, Volume 16, Issue 5, 4 February 2026.
Perovskite/silicon tandem solar cells have recently achieved certified power conversion efficiencies of 34.85%, far exceeding the Shockley‐Queisser limit for single‐junction silicon and standalone perovskite cells. This review highlights the latest advances in the design, integration, and optimization of perovskite top cells for monolithic tandem ...
