Fe-catalyzed etching of exfoliated graphite through carbon hydrogenation

January 8, 2016
Author(s)
Guangjun Cheng, Christina A. Hacker, Curt A. Richter, Angela R. Hight Walker
We present an investigation on the etching of graphite catalyzed by the particles produced by dewetting Fe thin films on graphite in forming gas. Raman mapping of the etched graphite shows the thickness variation in the etched channels and reveals that the

Morphological and Electrical Characterization of MWCNT Papers and Pellets

December 27, 2015
Author(s)
Elisabeth Mansfield, Ari D. Feldman, Ann C. Chiaramonti Debay, John H. Lehman, Alexandra E. Curtin
Six types of multiwall carbon nanotube soot were obtained and prepared into buckypapers by pellet pressing and by filtration into a paper. These samples were evaluated with respect to thickness, compressibility and electrical conductivity. DC conductivity

UV-assisted room-temperature chemiresistive NO2 sensor based on TiO2 thin film

December 24, 2015
Author(s)
Ting Xie, Nichole Sullivan, Kristen L. Steffens, Baomei Wen, Guannan Liu, Ratan K. Debnath, Albert Davydov, Romel D. Gomez, Abhishek Motayed
TiO2 thin film based, chemiresistive sensors for NO2 gas which operate at room temperature under ultraviolet (UV) illumination have been demonstrated in this work. The rf-sputter deposited and post-annealed TiO2 thin films have been characterized by atomic

High-efficiency superconducting nanowire single-photon detectors fabricated from MoSi thin-films

Varun B. Verma, Boris Korzh, Felix Bussieres, Robert D. Horansky, Shellee D. Dyer, Adriana E. Lita, Igor Vayshenker, Francesco Marsili, Matthew D. Shaw, Hugo Zbinden, Richard P. Mirin, Sae Woo Nam
We report on MoSi SNSPDs which achieved high system detection efficiency (87.1 ± 0.5% at 1542 nm) at 0.7 K and we demonstrate that these detectors can also be operated with saturated internal efficiency at a temperature of 2.3 K in a Gifford-McMahon

Intrinsic Spin Torque Without Spin-Orbit Coupling

December 21, 2015
Author(s)
Kyoung-Whan Kim, Kyung-Jin Lee, Hyun-Woo Lee, Mark D. Stiles
For non-uniform magnetic textures, we derive an intrinsic contribution to the non-adiabatic spin torque that may be the dominant contribution. It differs from previously considered contributions in several ways. It does not depend on the change in

Local photocarrier dynamics in CdTe solar cells under optical and electron beam excitations

December 16, 2015
Author(s)
Heayoung Yoon, Paul M. Haney, Yohan Yoon, Sang M. An, James I. Basham, Nikolai Zhitenev
We investigate local carrier dynamics in n-CdS / p-CdTe solar cells, where the electron-hole pairs are generated by either near-field optical illumination or highly focused electron beam excitation. A focused ion milling process was used to prepare a
