Semiconductor Properties

The samples of Upilex R polyimide (PI) were irradiated with 90 keV N+ ions to the fluences from 5 × 1014 to 2 × 1017 cm−2, and sheet resistance (Rs) and thermoelectric power (TEP) were measured in dependence on the ion fluence and the sample temperature. The Rs achieves its minimum for the ion fluence of 1 × 1017 cm−2, and from the measured temperature dependence of Rs it may be concluded that the ion beam modified PI exhibits semiconductor properties with charge transport governed by the variable range hopping mechanism. The measured TEP of the PI samples irradiated to the fluences above 1 × 1016 cm−2 is low (the order of μV/K). Such properties are typical for metals, and the conclusion is that the charge transport in the irradiated PI samples is contributed by the mechanisms which are characteristic for both semiconductors and metals. The role of conjugated double bonds was examined by measuring absorption UV-VIS spectra. The number of the conjugated double bonds correlates with observed Rs, and the width of the forbidden band, determined from UV-VIS spectra, is a decreasing function of the ion fluence.

Optimized Conditions

With the explosive development of optoelectronic devices, the need for high-performance transparent conductive (TCE) electrodes for optoelectronic devices has been increasing accordingly. The two major TCE requirements are (1) visible light average transmittance higher than 80% and (2) sheet resistance lower than 10 Ω/sq. In this study, we investigated the critical role of the top and bottom ZnO thicknesses for the ZnO/Cu/ZnO electrodes prepared on glass substrates. It was shown that the required Cu thickness to meet the conductivity requirement is 8 nm, which was fixed and then the thicknesses of the top and ZnO layers were independently varied to experimentally determine the optimized conditions for optical transparency. The thicknesses of the top and bottom ZnO layers were both found to significantly affect the peak transmittance as well as the average visible light transmittance. The ZnO/Cu/ZnO electrode exhibits peak and average transmittance of 95.4% and 87.4%, excluding the transmittance of glass substrates, along with a sheet resistance of 9.7 Ω/sq, with a corresponding Haacke’s figure of merit (φH=Tave10Rs) of 0.064, which exceeds the reported value for the ZnO/Cu/ZnO electrodes, manifesting the need of experimental optimization in this study.

AbstractWhitehouse adapts insights from evolutionary anthropology to interpret extreme self-sacrifice through the concept of identity fusion. The model neglects the role of normative systems in shaping behaviors, especially in relation to violent extremism. In peaceful groups, increasing fusion will actually decrease extremism. Groups collectively appraise threats and opportunities, actively debate action options, and rarely choose violence toward self or others.

AbstractIntuitions guide decision-making, and looking to the evolutionary history of humans illuminates why some behavioral responses are more intuitive than others. Yet a place remains for cognitive processes to second-guess intuitive responses – that is, to be reflective – and individual differences abound in automatic, intuitive processing as well.

Sense Of Obligation

Abstract Tomasello offers a compelling account of the emergence of humans’ sense of obligation. We suggest that more needs to be said about the role of affect in the creation of obligations. We also argue that positive emotions such as gratitude evolved to encourage individuals to fulfill cooperative obligations without the negative quality that Tomasello proposes is inherent in obligations.

Abstract The authors do the field of cultural evolution a service by exploring the role of non-social cognition in human cumulative technological culture, truly neglected in comparison with socio-cognitive abilities frequently assumed to be the primary drivers. Some specifics of their delineation of the critical factors are problematic, however. I highlight recent chimpanzee–human comparative findings that should help refine such analyses.
