Polarity continuation and frustration in ZnSe nanospirals
نویسندگان
چکیده
ZnSe nanospirals including structures with polarity continuation and polarity frustration are simultaneously observed at atomic resolution. Through careful analysis of polarity within each dumbbell based on aberration-corrected high-angle annular-dark-field imaging, polarity continuation across parallel polytype interfaces as well as the surrounding Z-shape faulted dipoles is verified. Moreover, polarity frustration across regions with different stacking sequence, which would lead to accumulations of boundary interface charges in the triangular-shaped mixed regions with potential optoelectronic applications, is carefully studied.

Polarity determination in ZnSe nanowires by HAADF STEM
High angle annular dark field scanning transmission electron microscopy is used to analyze the polarity of ZnSe nanowires grown, by molecular beam epitaxy, on GaAs substrates. The experimental results are compared to simulated images in order to verify possible experimental artefacts. In this work we show that for this type of nano-objects, a residual tilt of the specimen below 15 mrad, away fr...

Influence of InAlN Nanospiral Structures on the Behavior of Reflected Light Polarization
The influence of structural configurations of indium aluminum nitride (InAlN) nanospirals, grown by reactive magnetron sputter epitaxy, on the transformation of light polarization are investigated in terms of varying structural chirality, growth temperatures, titanium nitride (TiN) seed (buffer) layer thickness, nanospiral thickness, and pitch. The handedness of reflected circularly polarized l...
متن کاملCurved-lattice epitaxial growth of In(x)Al(1-x)N nanospirals with tailored chirality.
Chirality, tailored by external morphology and internal composition, has been realized by controlled curved-lattice epitaxial growth of In(x)Al(1-x)N nanospirals. The curved morphology of the spiral segments is a result of a lateral compositional gradient while maintaining a preferred crystallographic growth direction, implying a lateral gradient in optical properties. Individual nanospirals sh...
متن کاملQuantification and polarity sensitivity
Making a linguistic theory is like making a programming language: one typically devises a type system to delineate the acceptable utterances and a denotational semantics to explain observations on their behavior. Via this connection, the programming language concept of delimited continuations can help analyze natural language phenomena such as quantification and polarity sensitivity. Using a lo...
