Inelastic Electron Tunneling Spectroscopy at High-Temperatures. [PDF]
AbstractIon conducting materials are critical components of batteries, fuel cells, and devices such as memristive switches. Analytical tools are therefore sought that allow the behavior of ions in solids to be monitored and analyzed with high spatial resolution and in real time.

Simplified inelastic electron tunneling spectroscopy based on low-noise derivatives. [PDF]
A standard experimental setup for Inelastic Electron Tunneling Spectroscopy (IETS) performs the measurement of the second derivative of the current with respect to the voltage ( $$d^2I/dV^2$$ d 2 I / d V 2 ) using a small AC signal and a lock-in based ...

Inelastic electron-tunneling spectroscopy of nanoporous gold films [PDF]
We investigated the localized electronic properties of nanoporous gold films by using an ultra-high vacuum scanning tunneling microscope at low temperature (4.2 K). Second derivative scanning tunneling spectroscopy shows the plasmon peaks of the nanoporous gold films, which are excited by inelastic tunneling electrons. We propose that the nanorod model

Inelastic Electron Tunneling Spectroscopy for Topological Insulators
Inelastic Electron Tuneling Spectroscopy (IETS) is a powerful spectroscopy that allows one to investigate the nature of local excitations and energy transfer in the system of interest. We study IETS for Topological Insulators (TI) and investigate the role of inelastic scattering on the Dirac node states on the surface of TIs. Local inelastic scattering

Manipulating single excess electrons in monolayer transition metal dihalide
Polarons are entities of excess electrons dressed with local response of lattices, whose atomic-scale characterization is essential for understanding the many body physics arising from the electron-lattice entanglement, yet difficult to achieve.

Effects of anisotropy and disorder on the superconducting properties of niobium
We report results for the superconducting transition temperature and anisotropic energy gap for pure niobium based on Eliashberg’s equations and electron and phonon band structures computed from density functional theory. The electronic band structure is
