AbstractPhotoluminescence and Hall measurements are reported on Ge doped InGaAs layers lattice matched to InP. Ge doping of these samples results in highly compensated material, with the highest Ge content sample giving a p type conductivity with carrier concentration of 5 ×1017 cm-3. Low temperature PL spectra of these samples show a broad peak from 0.55 to 0.77 eV due to Ge. The peak of luminescence shifts to lower energy with increasing Ge content. The peak position shifts to higher energy with increasing excitation like in a D-A pair transition. The PL spectra have been explained on the basis of a model which assumes tail states near the band edges due to disorder produced by the presence of Ge in the lattice.

Photoluminescence(PL)-topography is a powerful method to determine the charge carrier concentration of SiC-wafers. The following work describes the development of a PL-topography method for the determination of charge carrier distribution in p-type SiC and shows the correlation of PL-Intensity and charge carrier concentration. With this setup it is possible to characterize wafers up to a size of 2” at room- and low temperature in a non-destructive way.

In this study, the ZnTe thin films were deposited on a glass substrate at a thickness of 400nm using vacuum evaporation technique (2×10-5mbar) at RT. Electrical conductivity and Hall effect measurements have been investigated as a function of variation of the doping ratios (3,5,7%) of the Cu element on the thin ZnTe films. The temperature range of (25-200°C) is to record the electrical conductivity values. The results of the films have two types of transport mechanisms of free carriers with two values of activation energy (Ea1, Ea2), expect 3% Cu. The activation energy (Ea1) increased from 29meV to 157meV before and after doping (Cu at 5%) respectively. The results of Hall effect measurements of ZnTe , ZnTe:Cu films show that all films were (p-type), the carrier concentration (1.1×1020 m-3) , Hall mobility (0.464m2/V.s) for pure ZnTe film, increases the carrier concentration (6.3×1021m-3) Hall mobility (2m2/V.s) for doping (Cu at 3%) film, but  decreases by increasing Cu concentration.

AbstractLow-temperature-processed semiconductors are an emerging need for next-generation scalable electronics, and these semiconductors need to feature large-area fabrication, solution processability, high electrical performance, and wide spectral optical absorption properties. Although various strategies of low-temperature-processed n-type semiconductors have been achieved, the development of high-performance p-type semiconductors at low temperature is still limited. Here, we report a unique low-temperature-processed method to synthesize tellurium nanowire networks (Te-nanonets) over a scalable area for the fabrication of high-performance large-area p-type field-effect transistors (FETs) with uniform and stable electrical and optical properties. Maximum mobility of 4.7 cm2/Vs, an on/off current ratio of 1 × 104, and a maximum transconductance of 2.18 µS are achieved. To further demonstrate the applicability of the proposed semiconductor, the electrical performance of a Te-nanonet-based transistor array of 42 devices is also measured, revealing stable and uniform results. Finally, to broaden the applicability of p-type Te-nanonet-based FETs, optical measurements are demonstrated over a wide spectral range, revealing an exceptionally uniform optical performance.

ABSTRACTWe examined a working hypothesis of sticky thermoelectric (TE) materials, which is inversely designed to mass-produce flexible TE sheets with lamination or roll-to-roll processes without electric conductive adhesives. Herein, we prepared p-type and n-type sticky TE materials via mixing antimony and bismuth powders with low-volatilizable organic solvents to achieve a low thermal conductivity. Since the sticky TE materials are additionally injected into punched polymer sheets to contact with the upper and bottom electrodes in the fabrication process, the sticky TE modules of ca. 2.4 mm in thickness maintained temperature differences of ca. 10°C and 40°C on a hot plate of 40 °C and 120°C under a natural-air cooling condition with a fin. In the single-cell resistance analysis, we found that 75∼150-µm bismuth powder shows lower resistance than the smaller-sized one due to the fewer number of particle-particle interfaces in the electric pass between the upper and bottom electrodes. After adjusting the printed wiring pattern for the upper and bottom electrodes, we achieved 42 mV on a hot plate (120°C) with the 6 x 6 module having 212 Ω in the total resistance. In addition to the possibility of mass production at a reasonable cost, the sticky TE materials provide a low thermal conductivity for flexible TE modules to capture low-temperature waste heat under natural-air cooling conditions with fins for the purpose of energy harvesting.

We report low-temperature Hall coefficient in the normal state of the high-Tc superconductor Bi 2 Sr 2-x La x CuO 6+δ. The Hall coefficient was measured down to 0.5 K by suppressing superconductivity with a 60 T pulsed magnetic field. The carrier concentration was varied from overdoped to underdoped regimes by partially substituting Sr with La in a set of five samples. The observed saturation of the Hall coefficient at low temperatures suggests the ability to extract the carrier concentration of each sample. The most underdoped sample exhibits a diverging Hall coefficient at low temperatures, consistent with a depletion of carriers in the insulating ground state. The Hall number exhibits a sharp peak providing additional support for the existence of a phase boundary at the optimal doping.
