Electron transport through an interacting region: The case of a nonorthogonal basis set

open access: yes, 2005
The formula derived by Meir and Wingreen [Phys. Rev. Lett. {\bf 68}, 2512 (1992)] for the electron current through a confined, central region containing interactions is generalized to the case of a nonorthogonal basis set.

Low energy electron attachment to condensed formic acid [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Dissociative electron attachment to formic acid in the condensed phase is studied using improved mass spectrometric detection of the negative ion fragments. The desorbed yields are measured as a function of incident electron energy in the range between 3

Effect of Grain Boundaries on the Electron Work Function of Ultrafine Grained Aluminum

open access: yesReviews on Advanced Materials Science, 2018
The electron work function (EWF) of ultrafine grained (UFG) aluminum structured by high pressure torsion (HPT) has been investigated. For the first time, the dependence of the EWF on the specific length of grain boundaries (or the grain size) for UFG Al ...

Sub-Kelvin Lateral Thermal Transport in Diffusive Graphene

open access: yes, 2019
In this work, we report on hot carrier diffusion in graphene across large enough length scales that the carriers are not thermalized across the crystal.

Tailoring low energy electron absorption via surface nano-engineering of cesiated chromium films [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
In this letter, we demonstrate that improved low energy electron absorption is achieved by suppressing the crystallinity of chromium thin-films grown on W[110], which points to a promising route for achieving highly efficient thermionic energy converters.

Atomic structure and electronic properties of Ce + O films co-adsorbed on Mo(112)

open access: yesResults in Surfaces and Interfaces, 2023
The atomic structure, stoichiometry and electron work function of Ce + O films co-adsorbed on Mo(112) were studied by low-energy electron diffraction (LEED), Auger electron spectroscopy (AES) and contact potential difference (CPD) methods. The films with

Edge reconstruction in the fractional quantum Hall regime

open access: yes, 2003
The interplay of electron-electron interaction and confining potential can lead to the reconstruction of fractional quantum Hall edges. We have performed exact diagonalization studies on microscopic models of fractional quantum Hall liquids, in finite ...

A polymer electrolyte design enables ultralow-work-function electrode for high-performance optoelectronics

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
Ambient-stable solution-processed conductive materials with a low work function are essential to facilitate electron injection. Here, the authors design and synthesise polymer electrolyte with work function down to 2.2 eV for applications in high ...

Femtosecond single-electron pulses generated by two-photon photoemission close to the work function

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2015
Diffraction and microscopy with ultrashort electron pulses can reveal atomic-scale motion during matter transformations. However, the spatiotemporal resolution is significantly limited by the achievable quality of the electron source.

Vibrationally promoted electron emission from low work-function metal surfaces [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Chemical Physics, 2006
We observe electron emission when vibrationally excited NO molecules with vibrational state v, in the range of 9⩽v⩽18, are scattered from a Cs-dosed Au surface. The quantum efficiency increases strongly with v, increasing up to 10−2 electrons per NO (v) collision, a value several orders of magnitude larger than that observed in experiments with similar
