We analyzed the protective ability of chemical vapor deposition (CVD) graphene domains against corrosion Cu surfaces. Fresh various shapes were ideal corrosion-inhibiting layers. However, obvious was found within exposed to air for over a week. Our work demonstrates that opportunities CVD provided by wrinkles but not others, such as grain boundaries and domain boundaries, which are always believed primary factor inferior quality at present.
Small-size, high-density, and vertical-ordering Ge quantum dots are observed in strained Si/Ge short-period superlattices grown on Si(001) at low growth temperature by molecular-beam epitaxy. The photoluminescence (PL) peak position, the strong PL room temperature, high exciton binding energy suggest an indirect-to-direct conversion of dots. This is good agreement with theoretical prediction. characteristic absorption directly indicates this conversion. tunneling carriers between these also observed.

Combining suppression thermal effect, high output power 3.8 W...
In the cathode luminescence spectroscopic study of AlN thin films grown on c-plane sapphire, we found that 3–4 eV is correlated with O impurities, and it first enhanced then weakened increase in temperature. The results an SIMS test show concentration impurities samples weakly growth conditions but strongly surface roughness at time growth. rougher exposes more crystalline plane to environment different planes have absorption capacities for leading inhomogeneous distribution AlN. This a...
The optical properties of aluminum nitride (AlN) materials were investigated using cathodoluminescence (CL), revealing two deep-level related emission peaks located at 340 nm and 380 nm. These are similar to the "yellow luminescence peak" observed in GaN materials. By increasing acceleration voltage, it was found that intensity these remained unchanged initially then increased. Additionally, an increase injected current led emergence a new peak 320 tests indicated emissions oxygen atoms...
Relaxed GexSi1−x epilayers with high Ge fractions but low threading dislocation densities have been successfully grown on Si (001) substrate by employing a stepped-up strategy and set of low-temperature GeySi1−y buffers. We show that even if the fraction rises up to 90%, density can be kept lower than 5×106 cm−2 in top layers, while total thickness structure is no more 1.7 μm.

Tunable symmetry breaking plays a crucial role for the manipulation of topological phases quantum matter. Here, through combined high-pressure magnetotransport measurements, Raman spectroscopy, and x-ray diffraction, we demonstrate pressure-induced phase transition in nodal-line semimetal ZrSiS. Symmetry analysis first-principles calculations suggest that this may be attributed to weak lattice distortions by nonhydrostatic compression, which breaks some crystal symmetries, such as mirror...
Temperature characteristics of GaN-based laser diodes are investigated. It is noted that the characteristic temperature threshold current ( T 0 ) decreases with decreasing lasing wavelength for LDs. The performance deteriorates seriously UV LDs at high temperature. ascribed to increase carriers escaping from quantum wells due lower potential barrier height. In this Letter, AlGaN used as layer in instead GaN improve and slope efficiency by increasing height wells. Based on structure, a output...
A Sb-mediated growth technique is developed to deposit Ge quantum dots (QDs) of small size, high density, and free dislocations. These QDs were grown at low temperature by molecular beam epitaxy. The photoluminescence absorption properties these suggest an indirect-to-direct conversion, which in good agreement with a theoretical calculation.
The performance of ultraviolet (UV) laser diodes (LDs) with a low Al mole fraction AlGaN cladding layer was investigated by varying the thicknesses waveguide layer. It is found that (1) loss carriers in much larger than blue or green LDs due to shallower quantum well and consequently weaker carrier confinement UV lasers. (2) Carrier can be suppressed using thinner Therefore, threshold current reduced. (3) GaN/AlGaN single lasing at 366 nm are fabricated relatively thin layers layers.
The reaction between gallium (Ga) and silicon (Si), termed melt-back etching, greatly deteriorates the quality of GaN grown on a Si substrate. In this paper, mechanism etching was investigated layer-by-layer in GaN/AlN/Si system. It is found that environment reactor plays critical role which may happen as early during baking process. Drawing experimental evidence analyses, two-step model proposed. Finally, optimized pretreatments including an AlN precoating process reduction temperature were...
Here, we demonstrate the Altshuler-Aronov-Spivak (AAS) interference of topological surface states on exfoliated Bi2Te3 microflakes by a flux period h/2e in their magnetoresistance oscillations and its weak field character. Both with h/e are observed. The h/2e-period AAS oscillation gradually dominates increasing sample widths temperatures. This reveals transition Dirac Fermions’ transport to diffusive regime.

Indium antisite defect InP-related photoluminescence has been observed in Fe-diffused semi-insulating (SI) InP. Compared to annealed undoped or Fe-predoped SI InP, there are fewer defects InP obtained by long-duration, high-temperature Fe diffusion. The suppression of the formation point can be explained terms complete occupation at indium vacancy. is enhanced interstitial that caused kick out In and substitution site diffusion process. Through these Fe-diffusion results, nature better understood.
