Strategy for One‐Step Optimization of Metal Oxide Passivating Contact Materials for Si Heterojunction Solar Cells through Growth Angle Variation

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
A one‐step oblique angle reactive sputtering approach enables simultaneous tuning of bulk and interfacial stoichiometry in a metal oxide/ silicon heterojunction. In case of vanadium oxides, growth angle variation controls the formation of stoichiometric SiO2, ternary SiOx(V) interlayer, and phase purity of vanadium oxide, considerably simplifying the ...

A Hybrid Solid‐State Battery with a Panoramic‐Scale Stack of Bulk Electrodes and a Thin‐Film Electrolyte

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
A hybrid all‐solid‐state battery (ASSB) is implemented by integrating a thin‐film electrolyte on a bulk anode, and a thick cathode sheet. A densified anode substrate with suppressed porosity is prepared by cold pressing. Thin‐film electrolyte is fabricated onto the bulk substrate via co‐sputtering and infrared‐based rapid annealing.

High‐Efficiency Generation of Vectorial Terahertz Beams via Surface‐Wave‐Excited Dielectric Metasurfaces

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Generating pre‐designed vectorial beams via on‐chip devices can yield many fascinating applications, but traditional diffraction‐based devices are bulky and inefficient. While plasmonic metasurfaces exhibit ultra‐compact sizes and deep‐subwavelength resolutions, their working efficiencies are limited by metallic losses.

Unlocking Nanoscale Microstructural Detail in Aluminum Alloys Through Differential Phase Contrast Segmentation in STEM

open access: yesSmall Methods, EarlyView.
Differential phase contrast (DPC) imaging in STEM is demonstrated as a rapid, versatile segmentation tool for advanced aluminum alloys. Decomposition of false‐color DPC micrographs resolves nanoclusters, precipitate variants, dislocation strain fields, nanostructures, and grain boundaries ‐ all within a single and fast acquisition.

Alteration of X‐Ray Emission Band Spectrum Under Bragg Diffraction

open access: yesX-Ray Spectrometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We use a Zr/Si multilayer presenting a gradient of period to probe the shape of the Si L2,3 emission band (maximum around 92 eV) in and out of Bragg conditions. The sample was prepared by magnetron sputtering and its reflectance measured in the photon energy range of interest with synchrotron radiation.

Delipidisation of wool fibres and the subsequent beneficial properties of delipidised wool fibres

open access: yesColoration Technology, EarlyView.
Abstract Wool fibres are complex matrices of proteins and fatty acids/lipids found both internally and externally. 18‐methyleicosanoic acid (18‐MEA) is covalently bound to the surface of the fibre via a thio‐ester link, and is considered one of the most important lipids as it is responsible for the hydrophobic properties of wool fibres.
