We present a theoretical study of the physical characteristics of metal/semiconductor junctions. Using first principle pseudopotential calculations, we have investigated the nature of electronic states with energies within the semiconductor band gap of rep ...
A new simulation technique (three-dimensional dislocation dynamics) enabling the capture of a hardening effect in metals due to irradiation is reported. When bombarded with high-energy particles, metals accrue internal damage. In irradiated Pd, for example ...
A review with 80 refs. Permanent modification is an important recent development in chem. modification techniques which is promising in view of increasing sample throughput with 'fast' programs, reducing reagent blanks, preliminary elimination of unwanted ...
Time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry (ToF-SIMS) imaging is employed to characterize the surface of patterned noble metal (Pt) and titania (TiO2) thin films deposited on oxidized silicon wafers. ToF-SIMS is used to follow the different process ste ...
We present a technique for the computation of the Green's tensor in three-dimensional stratified media composed of an arbitrary number of layers with different permittivities and permeabilities (including metals with a complex permittivity). The practical ...
We have studied by high resolution angle resolved photoelectron spectroscopy the spectral properties of two metallic and one insulating Bechgaard salts, quasi-1D organic materials. The spectra of the metals show no dispersing quasiparticle peak crossing th ...
We generalize density-functional perturbation theory for lattice dynamics to Vanderbilt's ultrasoft pseudopotential scheme. This formulation accounts for the nonorthogonality of the orbitals, the augmentation of the electron density, and the dependence of ...
Several bottom electrode systems for ferroelectric thin film deposition onto reactive substrates or reactive metal films have been investigated with respect to chemical barrier properties and contact resistivity. Such electrode systems should not deteriora ...
Piezoelectric thin films of PbZrxTi1-xO3 (PZT) on membranes are the subject of keen interest for the fabrication of micro-sensors and actuators. Piezoelectric activity of the PZT on Si-based membranes has been shown, and a micromotor has been demonstrated. ...
The electrons of the surface states on the (I 11) surfaces of the noble metals An, Ag, and Cu form a quasi-two-dimensional (2D) free electron gas which is confined to the first few atomic layers at the crystal surface. They are scattered by the potential a ...
