The temperature dependence of the conductivity is investigated as a function of boron doping in large-grained, degenerate polycrystalline ZnO films prepared by low-pressure chemical vapor deposition. Carrier transport in undoped and lightly doped films is ...
Flash memories based on nanoparticles (NPs) offer an attractive alternative for performance enhancement and size downscaling of non-volatile memory cells. In these devices, Coulomb blockade and quantized charging effects can be exploited at room temperatur ...
The strain distribution in a new generation nickel-based single crystal superalloy has been determined in the temperature range 293K–1598K. Measurements have been performed using diffraction of high energy synchrotron radiation (150keV, λ = 0.008 nm) to de ...
To investigate the mechanism of structural changes of a peptide nanotube and water confined inside the channel, the helical peptide tryptophylglycine monohydrate (WG-H2O) was studied by molecular dynamics (MD) simulations using the three-dimension parallel ...
The optical absorption coefficient of amorphous and microcrystalline silicon was determined in a spectral range 400-3100 nm and a temperature range 77-350 K. Transmittance measurement and Fourier transform photocurrent spectroscopy were used. The measured ...
The Laboratory of Industrial Energy systems has evaluated a series of high performance air-water heat pump concepts with the aim to retrofit existing fuel fired boilers for residential hydronic heating systems. The results are published within the framewor ...
Quasicrystals exhibit low thermal and moderate electrical conductivity, accompanied by a relatively high absolute magnitude of thermopower, which makes them suitable candidates for use as thermoelectric devices. Theoretical explanations of electrical and t ...
The structure of Cs3Bi2I9 has been refined to R = 0.0165 on the basis of X-ray diffraction measurements at T = 290 K (STOE IPDS diffractometer; MoKalpha-radiation; 296 nonequivalent reflection with I > 2 sigma(I)). The absorption correction was accounted f ...
Direct evidence for freezing in two relaxer ferroelectrics, PbMg1/3Nb2/3O3 and PbSc1/2Ta1/2O3, at a certain temperature T-f not equal 0K was obtained from the temperature dependence of the maximum relaxation time, tau(max), It was shown that tau(max)(T) fo ...
The Late Glacial and Holocene vegetation history of northern Kazakhstan is reconstructed using a well dated continuous pollen record from Ozerki swamp (50 degrees 24'N, 80 degrees 28'E, altitude 210 m), near Semipalatinsk. A montane steppe-taiga community ...
