Synchrotron Radiation from Outer Space and the Chandra X-Ray Observatory [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2006
The universe provides numerous extremely interesting astrophysical sources of synchrotron X radiation. The Chandra X-ray Observatory and other X-ray missions provide powerful probes of these and other cosmic X-ray sources. Chandra is the X-ray component of NASA's Great Observatory Program which also includes the Hubble Space telescope, the Spitzer ...

Self‐Organized Growth of Catalyst‐Free Single Crystal WnO3n‐2 (n = 25) Nanowire Bundles on Si (111) via Selective He+ Ion Irradiation

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
A novel and efficient method is explored to synthesize 1D single‐crystal sub‐stoichiometric WnO3n‐2 (n = 25) nanowire bundles. The approach utilizes selective low‐energy He+ ion irradiation (27 eV) on Mo‐Ni doped WOx surface, achieving efficient catalyst‐free self‐organized growth of high aspect ratio nanowires at the temperature of 700 °C.

Investigating Dopant Effects in ZnO as an Electron Transport Layer for Enhanced Efficiency in Organic Photovoltaics

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
By doping the elements with different numbers of valence electrons (Al3+ and Sn4+ ions) into the ZnO matrix, device conversion efficiencies of 8.69% and 9.21%, respectively, are achieved. The ultrafast time‐resolved studies show that the elevated carrier concentration in Sn‐doped ZnO, in comparison with Al‐doped ZnO and un‐doped ZnO, plays a ...

Beta‐Lactoglobulin for Water‐Based and Tunable Nanostructure Templating of Printed Titania Thin Films: The Influence of pH Value and Protein Concentration

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
The synthesis route for the fabrication of nanostructured titania thin films focuses on water‐based solutions, abundant, nontoxic materials, and a highly scalable deposition technique. Using beta‐lactoglobulin enables tunable titania thin film templating and allows for different domain sizes, porosities, and morphologies.

X‐Ray and Electron Spectroscopy of the CdS/(Ag,Cu)(In,Ga)Se2 Interface With RbF Treatment

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
The chemical and electronic structure of the CdS/(Ag,Cu)(In,Ga)(S,Se)2 interface with RbF treatment is investigated using a combination of synchrotron‐ and laboratory‐based soft and hard X‐ray spectroscopies. A Rb–In–Se species is found at the absorber surface, with a band gap of 2.8 eV, in contrast to comparable Ag‐free Cu(In,Ga)Se2 absorbers with RbF‐

A‐Site Cationic Variation to Expand the Sacrificial Layer AVO3 Family Dissolving in Water

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
The visual art depicts atoms dissolving in water, symbolizing the etching of Sr1‐xCaxVO3 thin films. This study demonstrates a new family of water‐soluble materials, expanding the lattice parameter range available for epitaxial growth on sacrificial layers.

Coherent emission of $γ$ quanta by synchrotron radiation excited nuclei: geometry of nearly backward scattering [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2013
A possibility of further development of Synchrotron M\"{o}ssbauer Source (SMS) of $^{57}$Fe 14.4 keV radiation is considered. The principles and detailed description of the SMS device is given in Refs. Phys. Rev. A 84, 053851 (2011) G. V. Smirnov et al, J. Synchrotron Rad., v. 19, 559 (2012) V. Potapkin et al.
