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 ...

Separation of kinetic rate orders in extreme ultraviolet transient grating spectroscopy

Majed Chergui, Michele Puppin, Giulia Fulvia Mancini, Camila Bacellar Cases Da Silveira, Oliviero Cannelli, Rebecca Ann Ingle, Serhii Polishchuk, Hugo Jean Baptiste Marroux

We present an extreme ultraviolet (EUV) transient grating (TG) experiment of the spinel Co3O4 compound using tuneable incident energies across the Co M-2,M-3-edge and a 395 nm probe pulse, detecting both the first and the second diffraction orders (SDOs). ...

A multi-reservoir extruder for time-resolved serial protein crystallography and compound screening at X-ray free-electron lasers

Christoph Bostedt, Camila Bacellar Cases Da Silveira

Serial crystallography at X-ray free-electron lasers (XFELs) permits the determination of radiation-damage free static as well as time-resolved protein structures at room temperature. Efficient sample delivery is a key factor for such experiments. Here, we ...

Carbon K-edge x-ray emission spectroscopy of gas phase ethylenic molecules

Majed Chergui, Camila Bacellar Cases Da Silveira, Rebecca Ann Ingle, Luca Longetti, Thomas Roland Barillot

We report on the C K-edge x-ray absorption spectra and the resonant (RXES) and non-resonant (NXES) x-ray emission spectra of ethylene, allene and butadiene in the gas phase. The RXES and NXES show clear differences for the different molecules. Overall both ...
