Modelling of Optical Damage in Nanorippled ZnO Produced by Ion Irradiation

open access: yesCrystals, 2019
Here, we report on the production of nanoripples on the surface of ZnO bulk substrates by ion beam erosion with 20 keV Ar+ ions at an oblique incidence (60°).

Keggin‐Type Aluminum Polyoxometalate‐Mediated Oxidation of Amorphous Carbon for Engineered Electrochemical Interfaces

open access: yesCarbon Energy, EarlyView.
Keggin‐type Al‐POM‐coated silica achieves selective surface oxidation of amorphous carbon through electrostatic attraction and proton‐coupled oxidation, tailoring interfacial properties for lithium‐ion batteries and semiconductor processes. ABSTRACT Amorphous carbon is widely used in energy storage and semiconductor technologies, where surface ...

Carbon‐Doped Amorphous Gallium Oxide Forms a Heterojunction With Water to Improve the Electrocatalytic Oxygen Evolution Reaction

open access: yesCarbon Energy, EarlyView.
A dynamic catalyst–H2O heterojunction (CWH) forms on ACG during OER, with periodic bubble evolution modulating band bending and interfacial charge transfer. Electron–radical coupling drives the generation of •OH/•O2− species, converting Ga2O3 into GaOOH, whereas surface CO32− from C doping stabilizes the interface, suppressing catalyst dissolution and ...

S‐Doped Carbon Nitride Thin Films From a Triazole Precursor

open access: yesCarbon Innovation, EarlyView.
Sulfur‐functionalized carbon nitride thin films are synthesized via low‐temperature chemical vapor deposition using a triazole‐derived precursor. Tunable sulfur incorporation modulates electronic and optical properties and enables efficient visible‐light photocatalysis with high conversion and selectivity.

Transition Metal Compounds as Thermochromic Materials: Classification, Properties, Limitations, and Applications

open access: yesEcoEnergy, EarlyView.
This review systematically examines how different transition metal compounds—such as binary and multinary metal oxides, halides, sulfides, and salts—exhibit thermochromism based on the d‐electron configurations of their transition metal cations. It focuses on three main mechanisms of thermochromism: phase transition, charge transfer, and bandgap change.

Epitaxial Integration of III–V Membrane Photodetectors With Lateral p–i–n Junctions on the Silicon‐On‐Insulator Waveguide Platform

open access: yesLaser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.
Epitaxial growth forms III–V membranes directly atop the silicon waveguide layer on SOI, while in‐plane in situ doping defines lateral p–i–n InP/InGaAs junctions in a single growth step. The membrane photodetectors achieve 50 Gb/s NRZ‐OOK operation.

Applications of spectroscopic ellipsometry to microelectronics

open access: yesThin Solid Films, 1993
Ellipsometry has been applied to problems in the microelectronics industry from the beginning in the 1960's. More recently spectroscopic ellipsometry has been introduced. In-situ during process ellipsometry offers great promise for monitoring and control of a wide variety of microeletrcnics processes.

Correlating Mid‐Infrared Absorption With Radiative Efficiency in Passive Daytime Radiative Cooling Systems

open access: yesMacromolecular Rapid Communications, EarlyView.
We establish a correlation between the mid‐IR photonic response of Passive Daytime Radiative Cooling systems and their thermal radiation performances, characterized within a dedicated setup that simulates the irradiance toward outer space under controlled and reproducible conditions.
