Status of the commissioning of the CMS GE1/1 station [PDF]
This article describes the results obtained from a test on GE1/1 GEM detectors in magnetic field. The motivation of the test was driven by the need of defining a safe operation procedure for GE1/1 detectors installed in CMS, after many instabilities were

GeSn on Insulators (GeSnOI) Toward Mid-infrared Integrated Photonics
In recent years, Ge and Ge1−xSnx materials and devices have achieved rapid progress in integrated photonics. However, conventional heteroepitaxy of active photonic devices compromises the area on Si for CMOS electronics, limiting the scale of integration.

Comparative Advances in Sulfide and Halide Electrolytes for Commercialization of All-Solid-State Lithium Batteries. [PDF]
This review compares sulfide‐ and halide‐based solid electrolytes for all‐solid‐state lithium batteries (ASSBs), highlighting their ionic conductivity, chemical stability, manufacturability, and compatibility with lithium metal. Sulfides offer higher conductivity, while halides provide enhanced stability and scalability.

Huge thermal noise owing to the narrow energy bandgap is one of the critical issues for group IV-based photonics in the mid-infrared regime. With this motivation, we examined to form Ge1−xSnx/Ge1−x−ySixSny quantum heterostructures (QHs) by molecular beam

N-Heterocyclic Carbene Stabilized Bisacylgermylenes. [PDF]
We developed a metal‐free strategy for acyl group abstraction, enabling access to novel germenolates 2a,b, or NHC‐stabilized bisacylgermylenes 4a,b. This novel class of germylenes exhibit nucleophilic reactivity toward iron and boron electrophiles, and can alternatively be prepared by the reaction of dichlorobisacylgermane and geminal bisgermenolate at

Sn diffusion during Ni germanide growth on Ge1-xSnx [PDF]
We report on the redistribution of Sn during Ni germanide formation on Ge1– x Sn x /〈Ge(100)〉 and its influence on the thin film growth and properties. These results show that the reaction involves the formation of Ni5Ge3 and NiGe.

Effects of Intermixing in Sb2Te3/Ge1+xTe Multilayers on the Thermoelectric Power Factor [PDF]
Over the past few decades, telluride-based chalcogenide multilayers, such as PbSeTe/PbTe, Bi2Te3/Sb2Te3, and Bi2Te3/Bi2Se3, were shown to be promising high-performance thermoelectric films. However, the stability of performance in operating environments,

Ni ohmic contacts to n-type Ge1−x−ySixSny using phosphorous implant and segregation
N-type Ge1−x−ySixSny ternary alloy was successfully grown by the Sb in situ doping technique through sputter epitaxy method. A study comparing the electrical contact characteristic of n- Ge1−x−ySixSny with and without phosphorous implantation was ...
