The electrical activity of nitrogen as an acceptor in ZnO has been investigated two ways. First, was introduced by means diallylamine during metalorganic vapor phase epitaxy (MOVPE) yielding incorporation the range 1016–1021 cm−3. This led to significant compensation natural donors with a minimum electron concentration 5×1014 Second, diffusion carried out on undoped MOVPE layers under high pressure conditions stemming from decomposition NH4NO3. Conversion p-type conductivity observed...
Unintentionally doped ZnO layers grown epitaxially on a sapphire substrate have been exposed either to hydrogen or deuterium plasma. Secondary ion mass spectroscopy measurements performed subsequently showed rapid diffusion of in these layers. Furthermore, the presence samples is found be responsible for nearly factor 3 increase free electron concentration. This effect attributed passivation compensating acceptor impurities present as-grown
Chromia layers are formed on many industrial alloys and act as a protective barrier against the corrosion of materials by limiting diffusion oxygen cations. Most these contain manganese an impurity, oxides often found at outer surface oxide films. In order to clarify oxidation mechanism check if chromia acts barrier, in was studied both polycrystals films Ni–30Cr alloy temperature range 700–1100°C pressure 10−4 atm. After deposition Mn diffusing treatment, penetration profiles were...

Among wide bandgap semiconductors, diamond presents physical properties particularly suited for high performance power electronic devices. Growth and doping of chemical vapor deposited (CVD) have been mainly optimized in the conventional (100) crystal orientation, highly studied on (111) surfaces recently initiated (113). This last orientation seems very promising, as is shown intrinsic p-type doped diamonds. In this work, we report growth CVD phosphorus films (113)-oriented substrates. The...
Ultra-wide bandgap gallium oxide (∼5 eV) has emerged as a novel semiconductor platform for extending the current limits of power electronics and deep ultraviolet optoelectronics at predicted fraction cost. Finding effective acceptor dopant is hot issue. One element that quite often considered potential candidate zinc. A number experimental works have reported signature Zn-acceptor, but direct evidence hole conductivity was missing. In this work, p-type Zn-doped Ga2O3 thin films were grown by...
Abstract Homoepitaxial boron‐doped diamond layers grown by chemical vapor deposition on (100)‐oriented substrates are studied Hall effect and resistivity measurements as a function of the temperature. In range 140–600 K, hole concentration is well described neutrality equation in regime very low compensation, with characteristic E i /2 activation energy, where ionization energy boron acceptors. It indicates that residual donor extremely (<10 13 cm −3 ).

For high power electronics, diamond is a promising semiconductor with phosphorus being the current substitutional donor. However, up to now, in (100) oriented grown diamond, only small fraction of atoms incorporated sites (&lt;30%) and epilayer surface exhibits macrosteps. In this work, we present phosphorus-doped where ∼100% are sites. The film low roughness (RMS = 0.5 nm). Our conductive (ρ 5.0 × 106 Ω · cm at 300 K) neutral detected infrared absorption.

We present the first study of thermal conductivity in superconducting SrTi$_{1-x}$Nb$_{x}$O$_{3}$, sufficiently doped to be near its maximum critical temperature. The bulk temperature, determined by jump specific heat, occurs at a significantly lower temperature than resistive T$_{c}$. Thermal conductivity, dominated electron contribution, deviates from normal-state magnitude T$_{c}$, following Bardeen-Rickayzen-Tewordt (BRT) behavior, expected for transport Bogoliubov excitations. Absence...
