Record Performance in Vertically Stacked, Solution‐Processed ZTO Schottky Diodes

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Schottky diodes based on solution processed sustainable zinc—tin–oxide thin films present an eco‐friendly and versatile alternative to conventional CMOS based technologies. Beyond state‐of‐the‐art performance for vertically stacked solution‐based oxide diodes was achieved, including rectification ratios exceeding nine orders of magnitude, and intrinsic

Non-adiabatic instability in coupled dark sectors

, 2009
It has been recently pointed out that coupled dark matter-dark energy systems suffer from non-adiabatic instabilities at early times and large scales. We show how coupled models free from non-adiabatic instabilities can be identified as a function of a generic coupling Q and of the dark energy equation of state w.

Towards Designing Sector-Coupled Energy Systems Within Planetary Boundaries

Systems and Control Transactions
The transition to net-zero greenhouse gas emissions requires a rapid redesign of energy systems. However, the redesign may shift environmental impacts to other categories than climate change. To assess the sustainability of the resulting impacts, the planetary boundaries framework provides absolute limits for environmental sustainability.

Micromachined Double‐Membrane Mechanically Tunable Metamaterial for Thermal Infrared Filtering

Advanced Photonics Research, Volume 6, Issue 5, May 2025.
Herein, a mechanically tunable double‐layer plasmonic metamaterial leveraging the extraordinary optical transmission effect observed in subwavelength arrays of openings within thin metal layers is presented. The concept is experimentally validated by integrating the proposed metamaterial structure into an electrostatic parallel‐plate actuator to create
