Enhanced photoelectrochemical behavior of H-TiO2 nanorods hydrogenated by controlled and local rapid thermal annealing
Recently, colored H-doped TiO2 (H-TiO2) has demonstrated enhanced photoelectrochemical (PEC) performance due to its unique crystalline core disordered shell nanostructures and consequent enhanced conduction behaviors between ...
Tailoring the surface density of silicon nanocrystals embedded in SiOx single layers
In this article, we explore the possibility of modifying the silicon nanocrystal areal density in SiOx single layers, while keeping constant their size. For this purpose, a set of SiOx monolayers with controlled thickness ...
Polarized Raman scattering study of kesterite type Cu2ZnSnS4 single crystals
A non-destructive Raman spectroscopy has been widely used as a complimentary method to X-ray diffraction characterization of Cu2ZnSnS4 (CZTS) thin films, yet our knowledge of the Raman active fundamental modes in this ...
Statistical analysis of coding for molecular properties in the olfactory bulb
The relationship between molecular properties of odorants and neural activities is arguably one of the most important issues in olfaction and the rules governing this relationship are still not clear. In the olfactory bulb ...
Impedance field and transition from thermal to shot noise in Cd1-xZnxTe semi-insulating Ohmic detectors
Within a drift-diffusion model we investigate the role of the self-consistent electric field in determining the impedance field of a macroscopic Ohmic (linear) resistor made by a compensated semi-insulating semiconductor ...
Biosensors Integration in blood-brain barrier-on-a-chip: emerging platform for monitoring neurodegenerative diseases
Over the most recent decades, the development of new biological platforms to study disease progression and drug efficacy has been of great interest due to the high increase in the rate of neurodegenerative diseases (NDDs). ...
Residual thermomechanical stresses in thinned-chip assemblies
A new technology for the three-dimensional (3-D) stacking of very thin chips on a substrate is currently under development within the ultrathin chip stacking (UTCS) Esprit Project 24910. In this work, we present the ...
A study of carbon nanofibers and active carbon as symmetric supercapacitor in aqueous electrolyte: a comparative study
Symmetric supercapacitors are fabricated by carbon nanofibers (CNF) and activated carbon (AC) using similar proportions of 7 wt% polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) polymer binder in an aqueous electrolyte. In this study, a ...
The magnetic drivers of campfires seen by the Polarimetric and Helioseismic Imager (PHI) on Solar Orbiter
The Extreme Ultraviolet Imager (EUI) on board the Solar Orbiter (SO) spacecraft observed small extreme ultraviolet (EUV) bursts, termed campfires, that have been proposed to be brightenings near the apexes of low-lying ...
Electrochemical Instrumentation of an Embedded Potentiostat System (EPS) for a Programmable-System-On-a-Chip
Under the main features required on portable devices in electrochemical instrumentation is to have a small size, low power consumption, economically affordable and precision in the measurements. This paper describes the ...
Low-cost 3D printed inertial flow microfluidic devices for cellular isolation in liquid biopsies
Microfluidic devices for biomedical applications manufactured by conventional lithography often lack flexibility in design integration. Limitations in aspect ratio or in the ability to integrate microfluidic elements located ...
The importance of back contact modification in Cu2ZnSnSe4 solar cells: The role of a thin MoO2 layer
Cu2ZnSn(SxSe1−x)4 (CZTSSe) photovoltaic absorbers could be the earth-abundant and low toxicity replacement for the already commercialized CuIn1−xGaxSe2 (CIGS) thin film technology. In order to make this possible, specific ...
Strain-induced quenching of optical transitions in capped self-assembled quantum dot structures
Strain-induced quenching of optical transitions has been found in capped self-assembled quantum dot structures. Light absorption at the E 1 and E 1 + Δ 1 critical points of InSb islands buried in InP disappears ...
The Ariel payload design post-PDR
The Ariel space mission will characterize spectroscopically the atmospheres of a large and diverse sample of hundreds of exoplanets. Through the study of targets with a wide range of planetary parameters (mass, density, ...
Nucleation and growth of GaN nanorods on Si (111) surfaces by plasma-assisted molecular beam epitaxy - The influence of Si- and Mg-doping
The self-assembled growth of GaN nanorods on Si (111) substrates by plasma-assisted molecular beam epitaxy under nitrogen-rich conditions is investigated. An amorphous silicon nitride layer is formed in the initial stage ...
Majority carrier capture cross section determination in the large deep trap concentration cases
A method to determine the thermal cross section of a deep level from capacitance measurements is reported. The results enable us to explain the nonexponential behavior of the capacitance versus capture time when the trap ...
Distinct magnetism in ultrathin epitaxial NiFe2O4 films on MgAl2O4 and SrTiO3single crystalline substrates
Spinel ferrites are being considered for advanced spintronic applications. Here, we report on the magnetic properties of ultrathin (3-37 nm) epitaxial films of NiFe2O4 (NFO) on MgAl2O4 (MAO) and SrTiO3 (STO) single crystalline ...
Determination of the direct band-gap energy of InAlAs matched to InP by photoluminescence excitation spectroscopy
A series of InxAl12xAs samples (0.51,x,0.55) coherently grown on InP was studied in order to measure the band-gap energy of the lattice matched composition. As the substrate is opaque to the relevant photon energies, a ...
Microinductive signal conditioning with resonant differential filters: high-sensitivity biodetection applications
Inductive-based devices integrated with Si technology for biodetection applications are characterized, using simple resonant differential filter configurations. This has allowed the corroboration of the viability of the ...
Back-compatible Color QR Codes for colorimetric applications
Color correction techniques in digital photography often rely on the use of color correction charts, which require including this relatively large object in the field of view. We propose here to use QR Codes to pack these ...
