Nanostructured silicon has generated significant excitement for use as the anode material
for lithium-ion batteries; however, more effort is needed to produce nanostructured silicon in …

We report on advanced insights into the fluxing of Pd–Si–Cu bulk metallic glasses. Flux-
induced boron alloying and trapping of oxides are found to be associated with the employed …

Films of a poly (fluorene-bisthiophene) derivative, named PFBT, were electrodeposited onto
indium tin oxide (ITO) electrodes and their electrochromic and fluorescence properties were …

In this paper, we present a silicon on dust substrate (SDS) process, a new method for the
growth of silicon ribbons. As a demonstration of the concept, we also present results on solar …

The sprayed boric acid (SBA) method for bulk doping of silicon ribbons is investigated.
Experimental procedures and main results are reviewed. Computational fluid dynamics and …

The Silicon on Dust Substrate (SDS) is a gas-to-wafer process that produces multicrystalline
silicon ribbons directly from gaseous feedstock (silane), avoiding the standard industry steps …

Transparent conductive oxides (TCOs) with high mobility and low carrier density exhibit
simultaneously high conductivity and high transparency in the visible and near infrared …

A method to dope silicon ribbons is presented. The method consists on the spraying of the
ribbons with a phosphoric acid solution followed by a recrystallization in an optical heating …

This paper presents the results achieved with an inline optical chemical vapor deposition
(CVD) system operating at atmospheric pressure and at low temperatures (< 600° C). Using …

This paper describes a method for measuring the dopant concentration in a semiconductor
using the Seebeck effect at a given point of a sample using a transient thermal gradient. The …
