Optoelectronics based on the spin-valley physics of 2D materials

Juan Francisco Gonzalez Marin

Two-dimensional (2D) materials are atomically thin crystals with exceptional mechanical, electrical and optical properties. Their unique characteristics originating from quantum confinement in the vertical dimension have attracted a strong interest for sci ...

Ferroelectric Self-Poling in GeTe Films and Crystals

Jan Hugo Dil

Ferroelectric materials are used in actuators or sensors because of their non-volatile macroscopic electric polarization. GeTe is the simplest known diatomic ferroelectric endowed with exceedingly complex physics related to its crystalline, amorphous, ther ...

GaN surface as the source of non-radiative defects in InGaN/GaN quantum wells

Nicolas Grandjean, Jean-François Carlin, Raphaël Butté, Denis Martin, Gwénolé Jean Jacopin, Wei Liu, Camille Haller

Blue light-emitting diodes based on III-nitride semiconductors are nowadays widely used for solid-state lighting. They exhibit impressive figures of merit like an internal quantum efficiency close to 100%. This value is intriguing when considering the high ...

Enhancement of Auger recombination induced by carrier localization in InGaN/GaN quantum wells

Nicolas Grandjean, Benoît Marie Joseph Deveaud, Raphaël Butté, Gwénolé Jean Jacopin, Wei Liu, Georg Rossbach, Mehran Shahmohammadi, Lise Lahourcade

The origin of efficiency droop in state-of-the-art quality In GaN/GaN and GaN/AlGaN quantum wells (QWs) grown on various crystal planes is studied by means of time-resolved photoluminescence spectroscopy associated with a precise determination of the QW ca ...

Strain-induced polar discontinuities in two-dimensional materials from combined first-principles and Schrodinger-Poisson simulations

Giovanni Pizzi, Marco Gibertini, Augustin Bussy

The local application of mechanical stress in piezoelectric materials gives rise to boundaries across which the electric polarization changes. Polarization charges appear along such polar discontinuities and the ensuing electric fields drive a charge recon ...

Characterization methodology for lead zirconate titanate thin films with interdigitated electrode structures

Paul Muralt, Robin Nigon, Trygve Magnus Raeder

The accurate evaluation of ferroelectric thin films operated with interdigitated electrodes is quite a complex task. In this article, we show how to correct the electric field and the capacitance in order to obtain identical polarization and CV loops for a ...
