Many displays found in smartphones and televisions rely on thin-film transistors (TFTs) made from indium gallium zinc oxide ...

What’s more, the fact that they are rigid (diamond being the hardest material known), means they cannot conform to the sample being studied. A new carbon-based defect Researchers recently discovered a ...

The tin-vacancy defects belong to a family known as Group-IV color centers—a class of defects in diamond created by atoms such as silicon, germanium, or tin.

Tin-vacancy defects are classified as Group-IV color centers, which are a type of diamond defect caused by atoms such as silicon, germanium, or tin.

Defects-rich heterointerfaces integrated with adjustable crystalline phases and atom vacancies, as well as veiled dielectric-responsive character, are instrumental in electromagnetic dissipation ...

Based on these advantages, the vacancy defects upon the surface causing the recombination of the carriers could be reduced sharply, which helps to solve the photovoltaic problems in solar cells.

Introducing oxygen vacancy defect engineering into the catalyst thus opens up a new avenue for enhancing the cyclic stability and kinetic performance of MgH 2.

David Awschalom, the Liew Family Professor in Molecular Engineering at the University of Chicago, and his colleagues study a technologically useful diamond defect called a nitrogen vacancy center. NV ...

Then, they’re irradiated with high-energy electrons to create what’s known as a nitrogen-vacancy defect, which can be used to hold quantum information.
