Conduction in charged PbSe nanocrystal films.
Conduction in thin films of PbSe nanocrystals doped by electrochemical gating has been studied. Charging the film, with either electrons or holes, increases the conductance by orders of magnitude. The electrons in the 1S(e) state of nanocrystals in these films have a mobility as high as 5.0 x 10(-3) cm(2) V(-1) s(-1). Electrons in the 1P(e) state were found to have a differential mobility up to...
متن کاملVariable range hopping conduction in semiconductor nanocrystal solids.
The temperature and electrical field dependent conductivity of n-type CdSe nanocrystal thin films is investigated. In the low electrical field regime, the conductivity follows sigma approximately exp([-(T(*)/T)(1/2)] in the temperature range 10<T<120 K. At high electrical field, the conductivity is strongly field dependent. At 4 K, the conductance increases by 8 orders of magnitude over one dec...
متن کاملCross-Plane Phonon Conduction in Polycrystalline Silicon Films
Silicon films of submicrometer thickness play a central role in many advanced technologies for computation and energy conversion. Numerous thermal conductivity data for silicon films are available in the literature, but they are mainly for the lateral, or in-plane, direction for both polycrystalline and single crystalline films. Here, we use time-domain thermoreflectance (TDTR), transmission el...
متن کاملSilicon optical nanocrystal memory
We describe the operation of a silicon optical nanocrystal memory device. The programmed logic state of the device is read optically by the detection of high or low photoluminescence intensity. The suppression of excitonic photoluminescence is attributed to the onset of fast nonradiative Auger recombination in the presence of an excess charge carrier. The device can be programmed and erased ele...
متن کاملNon-Ohmic effects in hopping conduction in doped silicon and germanium between 0.05 and 1 K
We have studied non-Ohmic effects in hopping conduction in moderately compensated ion-implanted Si:P, B both nand p-type and neutron-transmutation-doped Ge:Ga,As over the temperature range 0.05–0.8 K and up to moderately strong electric fields. In the limit of small fields, where the current is proportional to applied voltage, the resistivities of these materials are approximated over a wide te...
