Hard x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (HAXPES) is establishing itself as an essential
technique for the characterisation of materials. The number of specialised photoelectron …

Infrared (IR) sensors based on epitaxially grown semiconductors face two main challenges
which are their prohibitive cost and the difficulty to rise the operating temperature. The quest …

We demonstrated an ultrahigh-performance and self-powered β-Ga2O3 thin film solar-blind
photodetector fabricated on a cost-effective Si substrate using a high-temperature seed layer …

Photocatalytic activity is determined by the transport property of photoexcited carriers from
the interior to the surface of photocatalysts. Because the carrier dynamics is influenced by a …

Nanocrystal integration into focal plane arrays requires the development of new photodiode
designs combining an efficient charge dissociation with a low dark current. Previously …

We investigate the electronic and transport properties of HgTe 2D colloidal quantum wells.
We demonstrate that the material can be made p-or n-type depending on the capping …

Abstract High-performance, low-cost, self-powered deep-ultraviolet photodetectors (DUV-
PDs) are essential for military and civil applications. β-Ga 2 O 3 stands alone among all the …

Visible luminescence from ZnO nanorods (NRs) is attracting large scientific interest for light
emission and sensing applications. We study visible luminescent defects in ZnO NRs as a …

X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) is one of the most powerful techniques to
quantitatively analyze the chemical composition and electronic structure of surfaces and …

Black phosphorous (BP) is a layered semiconductor with high carrier mobility, anisotropic
optical response and wide bandgap tunability. In view of its application in optoelectronic …
