Strain-engineered inverse charge-funnelling in layered semiconductors

open access: yesNature Communications, 2018
The application of strain to semiconducting materials can be used to engineer electric fields through a varying energy gap. Here, the authors observe an inverse charge-funnel effect in atomically thin HfS2, enabled by strain-induced electric fields.

A Model for Multilevel Phase-Change Memories Incorporating Resistance Drift Effects

open access: yesIEEE Journal of the Electron Devices Society, 2015
Phase change memories are emerging as a most promising technology for future nonvolatile, solid-state, electrical storage. However, to compete effectively in mainstream storage applications, a multilevel cell capability is most desirable.

Using social media to measure impacts of named storm events in the United Kingdom and Ireland

open access: yesMeteorological Applications, 2020
Despite increasing use of impact‐based weather warnings, the social impacts of extreme weather events lie beyond the reach of conventional meteorological observations and remain difficult to quantify.

Single‐Crystalline Lateral p‐SnS/n‐SnSe van der Waals Heterostructures by Vapor Transport Growth with In Situ Bi Doping

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
In‐situ doping during growth of SnSe and subsequent attachment of SnS produces high‐quality lateral pn‐heterojunctions between van der Waals semiconductors. Electron beam induced current measurements demonstrate electrically active pn‐junctions, paving the way for devices that harness charge separation at lateral interfaces in layered heterostructures.

Contact Lens with Moiré Patterns for High‐Precision Eye Tracking

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This work presents a passive contact lens for high‐precision eye tracking, integrating a microscopic moiré grating label. The parallax‐induced shift of macroscopic moiré patterns enables angle measurement with 0.28° precision using a standard camera under ambient light.
