Synthesis of Zn₂NbN₃ ternary nitride semiconductor with wurtzite-derived crystal structure

Wurtzite-derived ternary I–III–O2 semiconductors

Ternary zincblende-derived I-III-VI2 chalcogenide and II-IV-V2 pnictide semiconductors have been widely studied and some have been put to practical use. In contrast to the extensive research on these semiconductors, previous studies into ternary I-III-O2 oxide semiconductors with a wurtzite-derived β-NaFeO2 structure are limited. Wurtzite-derived β-LiGaO2 and β-AgGaO2 form alloys with ZnO and t...

Modified Wurtzite Structure Oxide Compounds as Substrates for III-V Nitride Compound Semiconductor Epitaxial Growth

Internal structure of multiphase zinc-blende wurtzite gallium nitride nanowires.

In this paper, the internal structure of novel multiphase gallium nitride nanowires in which multiple zinc-blende and wurtzite crystalline domains grow simultaneously along the entire length of the nanowire is investigated. Orientation relationships within the multiphase nanowires are identified using high-resolution transmission electron microscopy of nanowire cross-sections fabricated with a ...

Polarons in Wurtzite Nitride Semiconductors

Polaron binding energy and effective mass are calculated for semiconductors with wurtzite crystalline structure from the first order electron-phonon corrections to the self-energy. A recently introduced Fröhlich-like electron-phonon interaction Hamiltonian which accounts for the LO and TO polarizations mixing due to the anisotropy is used in the calculation. The polaronic damping rates are eval...

Synthesis of ZnO Nanocrystals with Hexagonal (Wurtzite) Structure in Water Using Microwave Irradiation

Nanocrystals of ZnO were prepared by microwave irradiation using Zn (II) acetate and triethanol amin (TEA) as the starting materials and water as solvent. The nanocrystals of ZnO with hexagonal (Wurtzite) structure were characterized by X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), UV-Vis absorption and FTIR Spectroscopy techniques.
