Using a variational approach, we have investigated the effects of the magnetic field, the impurity position, and the nitrogen and indium concentrations on impurity binding energy in a Ga1-xInxNyAs1-y/GaAs quantum well. Our calculations have revealed the dependence of impurity binding on the applied magnetic field, the impurity position, and the nitrogen and indium concentrations.

An oxidative methyl esterification of aldehydes was effectively achieved. The trivalent indium reagent, indium(III) triflate, was revealed to accelerate the reactions in many cases. Aromatic aldehydes with various substituents were subjected to this method, and each produced the corresponding methyl esters in good to excellent yields within a relatively short reaction time.

An elastoplastic phase field model is developed to investigate the role of lateral confinement on morphology of thin films grown heteroepitaxially on patterned substrates. Parameters of the model are chosen to represent InxGa1-xAs thin films growing on GaAs patterned with SiO2. We determined the effect of misfit strain on morphology of thin films grown in 0.5μm patterns with non-uniform deposit...

A symmetric gain optoelectronic mixer based on an indium gallium arsenide (In0.53Ga0.47As)/indium phosphide (InP) symmetric heterojunction phototransistor structure is being investigated for chirpedAM laser detection and ranging (LADAR) systems operating in the ‘‘eye-safe” 1.55 lm wavelength range. Signal processing of a chirped-AM LADAR system is simplified if the photodetector in the receiver...

Occupational exposure to indium compound particles has recently been associated with lung disease among workers in the indium-tin oxide (ITO) industry. Previous studies suggested that excessive alveolar surfactant and reactive oxygen species (ROS) may play a role in the development of pulmonary lesions following exposure to indium compounds. However, toxicity at the cellular level has not been ...

A novel route called thermal replacement reaction was demonstrated for synthesizing eco-friendly ZnO@γ-In2Se3 hetero-structural nanowires on FTO glass by replacing the element cadmium with indium for the first time. The indium layer was coated on the surface of the ZnO nanowires beforehand, then CdSe quantum dots were deposited onto the coated indium layer, and finally the CdSe quantum dots wer...

This thesis focuses on studies of nano-scale materials in electronic packaging applications with respect to following aspects: surface analysis of nano-scale oxide of lead-free solder particles, and thermal performance and mechanical property studies of nano-scale fiber and metal composite-based thermal interface materials. The composition and thickness of the solder oxide have a direct impact ...

The synthesis and spectroscopic characterization of new axially ligated indium(III) porphyrin complexes were reported. Chloroindium(III) porphyrin (TPPIn-Cl) was obtained in good yield by treating the corresponding free base with indium trichloride. The action of the different phenols on chloroderivatives (TPPIn-Cl) led to the corresponding phenolato complexes (TPPIn-X). These derivatives were ...

Tri-methyl-indium (TMI) is used as an indium transport molecule to introduce indium atoms to reactive hot gas flows/combustion environments for spectroscopic diagnostics. A seeding system was constructed to allow the addition of an inert TMI laden carrier gas into an air/fuel mixture burning consequently on a burner. The amount of the seeded TMI in the carrier gas can be readily varied by contr...
