چکیده

Pbi-xCoxS ternary alloy films were grown using solution growth technique. X-ray fluorescence spectroscopy was used for compositional analysis. X-ray di9raction and atomic force microscopy analysis indicate the presence of nanometer-size grains in the films. Size dependence of optical band gap (Eg) is observed in the ternary nanoparticle films. Increase in Eg and decrease in DC-conductivity with increase in Co concentration is also observed. PACS: 81.05.Hd; 81.05.Ys; 81.10.Dn

Change of majority carrier type in PbS nanoparticle films

Change of majority carrier type from p to n in PbS semiconductor nanoparticle films grown from a solution bath has been achieved by applying an appropriate negative DC-bias to substrate during growth. This change is attributed to the observed decrease of sulfur content in the films which is accompanied by reduction in grain size on increasing the negative bias applied to the substrate. Pacs: 81...

Pt>i_xFexS nanoparticle films grown from acidic chemical bath

Pbi_xFexS (x — 0:25, 0.50, 0.75) films were grown from an acidic chemical bath. Nanoparticle films were structurally characterized by XRD and TEM. Optical band gap of films is observed to vary from 1.65 to 1.42 eV with increase in their iron concentration from x — 0:25 to 0.75 in the films. Increased optical band gap of the ternary films compared to the estimated bulk value is attributed to qua...

Metal Domain Size Dependent Electrical Transport in Pt-CdSe Hybrid Nanoparticle Monolayers.

Thin films prepared of semiconductor nanoparticles are promising for low-cost electronic applications such as transistors and solar cells. One hurdle for their breakthrough is their notoriously low conductivity. To address this, we precisely decorate CdSe nanoparticles with platinum domains of one to three nanometers in diameter by a facile and robust seeded growth method. We demonstrate the tr...

Dynamic Strain in Epitaxial Ferroic Oxide Films — @bulletorkidia Multiferroic Materials Based on Artificial Thin Film Het- Erostructures —

Epitaxial strain is known or theoretically predicted to essentially influence the electronic properties of transition metal perovskite oxides like (Ba,Sr)TiO3. One approach for reversible biaxial strain variation in epitaxial films fitting to a pseudocubic lattice parameter of about 4.0 Angstrom is the utilization of a ferroand piezoelectric PMN-PT(001) substrate. (PMN-PT stands for 0.72PbMg1/3...

Recent advances on physico-chemical characterization of passive films by EIS and differential admittance techniques

Thin Nb2O5 anodic films ( 20 nm thick) grown in phosphoric acid solution have been characterised by EIS and differential admittance study in a large range of potential and frequency. The overall electrical behaviour has been interpreted by means of the theory of amorphous semiconductor Schottky barrier in presence of a non-constant density of states (DOS). A comparison of DOS for films grown in...
