Revealing and Accelerating Slow Electron Transport in Amorphous Molybdenum Sulphide Particles for Hydrogen Evolution Reaction

Michael Graetzel, Xile Hu, Thomas Moehl, Heron Vrubel

Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy is used to identify a slow electron transport process in hydrogen evolution catalysed by amorphous molybdenum sulphides on glassy carbon. A new chemical synthesis leads to an amorphous molybdenum sulfide catalyst with ...

Correlations and renormalization of the electron-phonon coupling in the honeycomb Hubbard ladder and superconductivity in polyacene

Ronny Thomale

We have performed extensive density matrix renormalization group (DMRG) studies of the Hubbard model on a honeycomb ladder. The band structure (with Hubbard U = 0) exhibits an unusual quadratic band touching at half-filling, which is associated with a quan ...

Mobility engineering and a metal–insulator transition in monolayer MoS2

Andras Kis, Branimir Radisavljevic

Two-dimensional (2D) materials are a new class of materials with interesting physical properties and applications ranging from nanoelectronics to sensing and photonics. In addition to graphene, the most studied 2D material, monolayers of other layered mate ...

An innovative band-to-band tunneling analytical model and implications in compact modeling of tunneling-based devices

Mihai Adrian Ionescu, Luca De Michielis, Livio Lattanzio, Arnab Biswas, Nilay Dagtekin, Luca Selmi, Heike Riel

In this paper, an analytical band-to-band tunneling model is proposed, validated by means of drift-diffusion simulation and comparison with experimental data, implemented in Verilog-A, and finally proven with SPICE simulator through simulation of circuits ...

Temperature-dependent electron-phonon coupling in La_{2−x}Sr_{x}CuO_{4} probed by femtosecond x-ray diffraction

Majed Chergui, Henrik Moodysson Rønnow, Fabrizio Carbone, Paul Beaud, Krunoslav Prsa, Giulia Fulvia Mancini, Mathieu Julien Gino Cottet, Kazimierz Conder

The strength of the electron-phonon coupling parameter and its evolution throughout a solid's phase diagram often determines phenomena such as superconductivity, charge- and spin-density waves. Its experimental determination relies on the ability to distin ...

Thermoelectric Phenomena in Bi1-xSbx Nanowires in Semimetal and Gapless Region

Jean-Philippe Ansermet

The paper report results of magneto-thermoelectric properties the single crystal Bi1-xSbx nanowires in glass cover with different diameters prepared by Ulitovsky-Taylor method. We study the effect of nanowire dimensionality in the Bi1-xSbx, nanowires in se ...

Focused electron beam induced deposition: A perspective

Georg Fantner, Jonathan David Adams, Maja Dukic Pjanic

Background: Focused electron beam induced deposition (FEBID) is a direct-writing technique with nanometer resolution, which has received strongly increasing attention within the last decade. In FEBID a precursor previously adsorbed on a substrate surface i ...

Vanishing of the metal-insulator Peierls transition in pressurized BaVS3

Helmuth Berger

BaVS3 presents a metal-to-insulator (MI) transition at ambient pressure due to the stabilization of a 2k(F) commensurate charge density wave (CDW) Peierls ground state built on the dz(2) V orbitals. The MI transition vanishes under pressure at a quantum cr ...

Thermopower as a Unique Tool to Probe Quantum Phase Transitions

Stevan Arsenijevic

In my thesis, transport measurements such as resistivity and, more importantly, thermopower S, were used to explore the phase diagram of bad metals. Bad metals are electronically correlated systems whose ground state lies close to a quantum phase transitio ...

Spin-Orbital Quantum Liquid on the Honeycomb Lattice

Frédéric Mila, Karlo Penc, Miklos Lajko

The main characteristic of Mott insulators, as compared to band insulators, is to host low-energy spin fluctuations. In addition, Mott insulators often possess orbital degrees of freedom when crystal-field levels are partially filled. While in the majority ...
