Tailoring p-Type Behavior in ZnO Quantum Dots through Enhanced Sol–Gel Synthesis: Mechanistic Insights into Zinc Vacancies

Jacques-Edouard Moser, Andrea Cannizzo, Etienne Christophe Socie, Camila Bacellar Cases Da Silveira, Victoria Kabanova

The synthesis and control of properties of p-type ZnO is crucial for a variety of optoelectronic and spintronic applications; however, it remains challenging due to the control of intrinsic midgap (defect) states. In this study, we demonstrate a synthetic ...

Ultrafast carrier dynamics and insights in defect mechanism of p-type colloidal ZnO QDs

Jacques-Edouard Moser, Andrea Cannizzo, Etienne Christophe Socie, Camila Bacellar Cases Da Silveira, Victoria Kabanova

In this study, we place a strong emphasis on understanding the ultrafast dynamics of carrier recombination pathways in p-type ZnO, especially in the midgap region. Synthesizing and controlling the properties of p-type ZnO remains a pivotal yet challenging ...

Nanopillars Enabling III-V Integration on Si (100) and (111)

Lucas Güniat

The majority of current semiconductor technologies are built on Si (100), such as the CMOS technology, or conventional solar cell devices. III-V semiconductors offer great perspectives given their high carrier mobility and direct band gap. However their in ...

Modeling the Shape Evolution of Selective Area Grown Zn3P2 Nanoislands

Anna Fontcuberta i Morral, Elias Zsolt Stutz, Jean-Baptiste Leran, Mahdi Zamani, Simon Robert Escobar Steinvall, Vladimir Dubrovskii, Rajrupa Paul

Selective area growth of zinc phosphide (Zn3P2) on InP provides a pathway to high-quality semiconductor nanostructures and textured thin films made of earth-abundant elements. In the precoalescence stage, Zn3P2 emerges in the form of nanoislands undergoing ...

Shape retaining self-healing metal-coordinated hydrogels

Esther Amstad, Alvaro Lino Boris Charlet, Raffaele Mezzenga

Metal-coordinated hydrogels are physical hydrogels entirely crosslinked by complexes between ligand decorated polymers and metal ions. The mechanical properties of these hydrogels strongly depend on the density and dynamics of metal-coordinated interaction ...

Measuring the Optical Absorption of Single Nanowires

Anna Fontcuberta i Morral, Wonjong Kim, Simon Robert Escobar Steinvall

In this work we present a method to quantitatively measure the optical absorption of single nanowires that can be applied over a wide range of temperatures and with a high enough sensitivity to enable the measurement of below-band-gap absorption (as well a ...

Crystal Phase Tuning in Planar Films of III-V Semiconductors

Anna Fontcuberta i Morral, Kirsten Emilie Moselund, Nicolas Tappy

We report on the control of the crystal phase of micron-sized planar III-V semiconductor films grown on top of standard (001) oriented substrates. We achieve this by confining the MOCVD process using SiO2 templates and selecting specific growth planes. We ...
