Abstract:

In this paper, group velocity and frequency wave can be tuned with an applied external magnetic field when we increase the magnetic field from 0-4 tesla the frequency range can be reduced for given semiconductor materials. The excitation of the two layers of semiconducting material propagating band structures can be explained by the oscillations of electrons in semiconductors on applying the magnetic field, we study the effects of an external magnetic field in the band structure of C-insulator-GaAs materials in presence of surface magneto plasmons concerning plasma frequency below and above the surface band structures. The surface magneto plasmon bands get excited and show the dispersion relation with frequency range. The higher dispersion band moves in faster than the lower dispersion band structure of semiconducting material. The most energy is stored in a lower surface of magneto plasmon. When we increase the magnetic field, the surface of the semiconductor moves opposite to the lower surface of the semiconductor material. Here, we use semiconducting materials instead of metals because metal cannot support a wide frequency range on the magneto-plasmonic surface providing a good tunning property and more flexibility in this mechanism, which is widely useful in telecommunications, magneto-plasmonic devices, and data processing unit. This study is widely more promising due to its wavelength confinements of electromagnetic fields on semiconducting and insulating layers. Due to nonreciprocal effects, the dispersion of frequency waves varies with different band structures and group velocity also varies with two propagating directions among semiconductor-insulator-semiconductor layers.

Abstract:

AbstractThis article focuses on self-assembled photovoltaic materials based on a new class of semiconducting block copolymers for application in photovoltaic devices. Topics discussed include the materials concept for efficient photovoltaic-device structures, their macromolecular design and synthesis, and their performance in relation to their molecular, mesoscopic, and interfacial structures. An ideal organic material for this application would have to compete with amorphous silicon in regard to energy-conversion efficiency and fabrication costs. The potential of the semiconducting block copolymers presented in this review lies in the promise of large-area, mechanically flexible, self-structured photovoltaic devices fabricated by inexpensive processing techniques.

Abstract:

The photoexcitation of suitable semiconducting materials in aqueous environments can lead to the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS). ROS can inactivate microorganisms and degrade a range of chemical compounds. In the case of heterogeneous photocatalysis, semiconducting materials may suffer from fast recombination of electron–hole pairs and require post-treatment to separate the photocatalyst when a suspension system is used. To reduce recombination and improve the rate of degradation, an externally applied electrical bias can be used where the semiconducting material is immobilised onto an electrically conducive support and connected to a counter electrode. These electrochemically assisted photocatalytic systems have been termed “photoelectrocatalytic” (PEC). This review will explain the fundamental mechanism of PECs, photoelectrodes, the different types of PEC reactors reported in the literature, the (photo)electrodes used, the contaminants degraded, the key findings and prospects in the research area.

Abstract:

A variety of nanostructure bundles and arrays based on semiconducting metal silicides have been synthesized using abundant and non-toxic starting materials. Three types of fabrication techniques of the nanostructure bundles or arrays, including direct growth, template synthesis using natural nanostructured materials and template synthesis using artificially fabricated nanostructured materials are demonstrated. CrSi 2 nanowire bundles were directly grown by the exposure of Si substrates to CrCl 2 vapor at atmospheric pressure. A hexagonal MoSi 2 nanosheet, Mg 2 Si / MgO composite nanowire and Mg 2 Si nanowire bundles and MnSi 1.7 nanowire array were synthesized using a MoS 2 layered material, a SiO x nanofiber bundle, a Si nanowire array, and a Si nanowire array as the templates, respectively. Additionally, the fabrication phenomenon and structural properties of the nanostructured semiconducting metal silicides were investigated. These reactions provided the low-cost and controllable synthetic techniques to synthesize large scale and one-dimensional semiconducting metal silicides for thermoelectric applications.

Abstract:

Complexes of metals with Schiff bases are considered as promising materials for creating energy storage and photovoltaic devices. In this work, the semiconducting properties of a polymer nickel film with a salen-type ligand (poly-Ni(CH3O-Salen)) were studied by spectrophotometric and Faraday impedance spectroscopy. The Mott-Schottky analysis showed that the polymer film is a semiconducting material with a fairly narrow band gap, high charge carrier density and p-type conductivity. Using the method of Faraday impedance spectroscopy, the limiting stage of the oxygen photoelectroreduction reaction, the process of charge transfer from the film to molecular oxygen, has been established.

Abstract:

Semimetal-to-semiconductor transition in graphene can bestow graphene with numerous novel and enhanced structural, electrical, optical, and physicochemical characteristics. The scope of graphene and its prospective for an array of implications could be significantly outspread by this transition. In consideration of the recent advancements of semiconducting graphene, this article widely reviews the properties, production, and developing operations of this emergent material. The comparisons among the benefits and difficulties of current methods are made, intending to offer evidences to develop novel and scalable synthesis approaches. The emphasis is on the properties and applications resulting from various conversion methods (doping, controlled reduction, and functionalization), expecting to get improved knowledge on semiconducting graphene materials. Intending to motivate further efficient implications, the mechanisms leading to their beneficial usages for energy conversion and storage are also emphasized.

Abstract:

We propose development of an advanced type of "paper transistor" by using carbon-nanotube (CNT) composite papers (CNTCPs) and aim to apply our paper transistors to the construction of logic circuits. It is known that CNTs have many functions such as high electrical and thermal conductivities and metallic and semiconducting properties. Our CNTCP, which has various functions held by CNTs despite being paper, can be fabricated easily by scooping up and drying materials from a mixture of CNT and pulp (paper materials) dispersions. The CNTs have metallic or semiconducting properties, so metallic and semiconducting CNTCPs can be fabricated. By preparing such CNTCPs and normal paper as an insulator, we can produce the paper transistor. In previous work, we confirmed our prototype paper transistor could operate as a p-type transistor. However, the sample had problems, e.g., the internal resistance was rather high. In this study, we aim to overcome the problems by using a novel method for making the CNTCP. As the result of experiments, we succeeded in obtaining new paper transistors with better performance in comparison with the previous one. Moreover, we succeeded in finding a potential use as an n-type paper transistor by using an n-type doping material for semiconducting CNTCPs.

Abstract:

Metal oxide semiconducting compounds have potential application as photocatalyst materials to decompose many types of dyes and pollutants in the water. Zn2SnO4 and SnO2 are semiconducting materials that have photocatalytic properties and the properties of those two semiconducting materials in the composite form have been studied. Metal oxide compounds of Zn2SnO4 and SnO2 have been prepared through sonochemical methods using ZnCl2 and SnCl4.5H2O as precursors. After sonication and heat treatment at 1000 °C, we could obtain Zn2SnO4 and SnO2 compound in the sample as confirmed by x-ray diffraction measurement. The volume fraction of Zn2SnO4 and SnO2 phases in the sample were found to be at 60 % and 40 %, respectively. The absorption spectra revealed that the band gap of the composite materials is 3.7 eV. This material could degrade all of the methylene blue with concentration of 6.0 x 10-6 M in 120 minutes. The band structure calculation revealed that the comparable band gap values are found for Zn2SnO4 and SnO2 compounds. However, the absorption edges for those compounds are slightly different, with absorption edge at 3.2 eV for SnO2 and 3.6 eV for Zn2SnO4, respectively.

Abstract:

Single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) remain one of the most promising materials of our times. One of the goals is to implement semiconducting and metallic SWCNTs in photonics and microelectronics, respectively. In this work, we demonstrated how such materials could be obtained from the parent material by using the aqueous two-phase extraction method (ATPE) at a large scale. We also developed a dedicated process on how to harvest the SWCNTs from the polymer matrices used to form the biphasic system. The technique is beneficial as it isolates SWCNTs with high purity while simultaneously maintaining their surface intact. To validate the utility of the metallic and semiconducting SWCNTs obtained this way, we transformed them into thin free-standing films and characterized their thermoelectric properties.

Abstract:

The optical energy gap of the semiconducting intrinsic layer plays a crucial role in determining the increase in efficiency. The carbon-based biomass can be a choice for the silicon used as solar cell material. Here, we proposed the best biomass that can be used as a semiconductor component in solar cell applications. Coconut shells as bio-waste and palmyra sap, which are available in most areas of Indonesia, can be the best candidates to be considered. The XRD measurement showed both organic materials have an amorphous phase. The coconut shells sample has two peaks that are identical to graphene peaks, therefore this material is called graphenic-like carbon (GC). Furthermore, from the UV-visible spectroscopy, it was shown that both materials have a high transmittance of more than 95%, which indicates that they have transparent properties. Also, the Tauc plot method gives information about the optical energy gap of coconut shell charcoal (GC) and palmyra sap (a:C) which are 2.67 and 1.83 eV, respectively. From this result, palmyra sap becomes promising material to be applied as an intrinsic layer for semiconducting components in solar cell applications.Keywords: Amorphous phase, Coconut shells charcoal, Optical energy gap, Palmyra sugar.

Abstract:

We report here a study on the electrical and magnetic properties of La1−xBaxCoO3 in the re-entrant semiconducting region (x = 0.20). We find that in this material: (i) the insulator-metal-insulator sequence is unstable and evolves toward a purely semiconducting behavior; the initial r versus T curve can be reinstated upon appropriate annealing treatments; (ii) there are relaxation effects that can be seen by changing the polarity of the electrodes; (iii) there is a negative magnetoresistance Δρ/ρ ∼ 2–3%, for a field as low as 9 kOe, especially at the metal-insulating transition temperatures; and (iv) there are important fluctuations in the electrical resistivity. Taking into account these experimental observations, we can interpret this material as an inhomogeneous system where two thermodynamic phases, one semiconducting and the other metallic and ferromagnetic, coexist, although they are crystallographically indistinguishable.

Full text

Abstract:

Lamellar nanocomposites based on semiconducting polymers incorporated into layered inorganic matrices are prepared by the co-assembly of organic and inorganic precursors. Semiconducting polymer-incorporated silica is prepared by introducing the semiconducting polymers into a tetrahydrofuran (THF)/water homogeneous sol solution containing silica precursor species and a surface-active agent. Semiconducting polymer-incorporated MoS 2 and SnS 2 are prepared by Li intercalation into the inorganic compound, exfoliation and restack in the presence of the semiconducting polymer. All lamellar nanocomposite films are organized in domains aligned parallel to the substrate surface plane. The incorporated polymers maintain their semiconducting properties, as evident from their optical absorption and photoluminescence spectra. The optoelectronic properties of the nanocomposites depend on the properties of both the inorganic host and the incorporated guest polymer as demonstrated by integrating the nanocomposite films into light-emitting diodes. Devices based on polymer-incorporated silica and polymer-incorporated MoS 2 show no diode behaviour and no light emission due to the insulating and metallic properties of the silica and MoS 2 hosts. In contrast, diode performance and electroluminescence are obtained from devices based on semiconducting polymer-incorporated semiconducting SnS 2 , demonstrating that judicious selection of the composite components in combination with the optimization of material synthesis conditions allows new hierarchical structures to be tailored for electronic and optoelectronic applications.

Abstract:

This article will briefly review the progress of h-BN based solid-state metal semiconductor metal (MSM) neutron detectors. In the last decade, several groups have been working on hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN)-based solid-state neutron detectors. Recently, the detection efficiency of 59% has been reported. Efficient, low-cost neutron detectors made from readily available materials are essential for various applications. Neutron detectors are widely used to detect fissile materials and nuclear power plants for security applications. The most common and widely used neutron detectors are 3He based, which are sometimes bulky, difficult to transport, have high absorption length, need relatively high bias voltage (>1000 V), and have low Q-value (0.764 MeV). In addition, 3He is not a readily available material. Thus, there is a strong need to find an alternative detection material. The 10B isotope has a high neutron absorption cross-section, and it has been tested as a coating on the semiconducting materials. Due to the two-step process, neutron capture through 10B and then electron–hole pair generation in a typical semiconducting material, the efficiency of these devices is not up to the mark. The progress in h-BN based detectors requires a review to envision the further improvement in this technology.

OFETs using poly 3-hexylthiophene (P3HT), a p-type organic semiconductor material and CuII tetraphenylporphyrin ( CuTPP ) composite as their active material were investigated as sensors for detection of various nitro-based explosive vapors with greater than parts per billion sensitivity range. Significant changes, suitable for sensor response, were observed in ON current (Ion) and transconductance (gm) extracted from electrical characteristics of the OFET after exposure to vapors of various explosive compounds. However, a similar device response was not observed to strong oxidizing agents such as benzoquinone (BQ) and benzophenone (BP). Also, the use of organic semiconducting material sensors for determining total ionizing radiation dose was studied, wherein the conductivity of the material was measured as a function of total ionizing radiation dose. An organic semiconducting material resistor was exposed to γ-radiation and it was observed that the change in resistance was proportional to the ionizing radiation dose. Changes in various parameters extracted from electrical characteristics of the OFET after γ-radiation exposure resulted in an improved sensitivity. To protect the organic semiconductor layer from the degradation in the ambient the sensors were passivated with a thin layer of silicon nitride.

Abstract:

Antibiotics are chemical compounds that are used to kill or prevent bacterial growth. They are used in different fields, such as the medical field, agriculture, and veterinary. Antibiotics end up in wastewater, which causes the threat of developing antibacterial resistance; therefore, antibiotics must be eliminated from wastewater. Different conventional elimination methods are limited due to their high cost and effort, or incomplete elimination. Semiconductor-assisted photocatalysis arises as an effective elimination method for different organic wastes including antibiotics. A variety of semiconducting materials were tested to eliminate antibiotics from wastewater; nevertheless, research is still ongoing due to some limitations. This review summarizes the recent studies regarding semiconducting material modifications for antibiotic degradation using visible light irradiation.

Abstract:

Ab initio Quantum-Mechanical methods are well-established tools for material characterization and discovery in many technological areas. Recently, state-of-the-art approaches based on density-functional theory and many-body perturbation theory were successfully applied to semiconducting alkali antimonides and tellurides, which are currently employed as photocathodes in particle accelerator facilities. The results of these studies have unveiled the potential of ab initio methods to complement experimental and technical efforts for the development of new, more efficient materials for vacuum electron sources. Concomitantly, these findings have revealed the need for theory to go beyond the status quo in order to face the challenges of modeling such complex systems and their properties in operando conditions. In this review, we summarize recent progress in the application of ab initio many-body methods to investigate photocathode materials, analyzing the merits and the limitations of the standard approaches with respect to the confronted scientific questions. In particular, we emphasize the necessary trade-off between computational accuracy and feasibility that is intrinsic to these studies, and propose possible routes to optimize it. We finally discuss novel schemes for computationally-aided material discovery that are suitable for the development of ultra-bright electron sources toward the incoming era of artificial intelligence.

Abstract:

In this paper we present a method to produce polycrystalline CuSbS2 thin ?lms through a solid-state reaction at 350 ºC and 400 ºC involving thin ?lm multilayer of Sb2S3 -CuS or Cu2-xSe by chemical bath deposition technique. The formation of the ternary compound was confirmed by X-ray di?raction (XRD). A direct optical band gap of approx. 1.57 eV anda p-type electrical conductivity of 10-3 (Ω•cm)-1 were measured. These optoelectronic characteristics show perspective for the use of CuSbS, as a suitable absorber material in photovoltaic applications.

Abstract:

Band-structure calculations of germanium carbide (GeC) show that it is a new indirect wide band gap semiconducting material, which crystallizes in both cubic and hexagonal phases. Through the density functional and total-energy technique in the generalized gradient approximation, the two polytypes 3C and 2H of GeC were studied. According to our calculations, it is a hard material with a percentage of covalency of about 80–90%. Important energy gaps were determined. The bulk modulus, density of states, and charge density were calculated. For the bulk modulus calculations, Murnaghan’s equation of state was used under elastic deformation to measure hardness. Our calculations showed that this semiconducting material crystallizes in zincblend (Eg = 1.76 eV) and wurtzite (Eg = 2.5 eV) structures.

Abstract:

Non-volatile liquid organic semiconducting materials have received much attention as emerging functional materials for organic electronic and optoelectronic devices due to their remarkable advantages. However, charge injection and transport processes are significantly impeded at interfaces between electrodes and liquid organic semiconductors, resulting in overall lower performance compared to conventional solid-state electronic devices. Here we successfully demonstrate efficient charge injection into solvent-free liquid organic semiconductors via cracked metal structures with a large number of edges leading to local electric field enhancement. For this work, thin metal films on deformable polymer substrates were mechanically stretched to generate cracks on the metal surfaces in a controlled manner, and charge injection properties into a typical non-volatile liquid organic semiconducting material, (9-2-ethylhexyl)carbazole (EHCz), were investigated in low bias region (i.e., ohmic current region). It was found that the cracked structures significantly increased the current density at a fixed external bias voltage via the local electric field enhancement, which was strongly supported by field intensity calculation using COMSOL Multiphysics software. We anticipate that these results will significantly contribute to the development and further refinement of various organic electronic and optoelectronic devices based on non-volatile liquid organic semiconducting materials.

Abstract:

First-principles investigations are employed to provide a fundamental understanding of the structural features, phase stability, mechanical properties, Debye temperature, and hardness of manganese tetraboride. Eight candidate structures of known transition-metal tetraborides are chosen to probe. The calculated lattice parameters, elastic properties, Poisson’s ratio, and [Formula: see text] ratio are derived. It is observed that the monoclinic structure with [Formula: see text] symmetry (MnB4–MnB4) is the most stable in energy. The mechanical and thermodynamic stabilities of seven possible phases are confirmed by the calculated elastic constants and formation enthalpy. Moreover, the analysis on density of states demonstrates semiconducting behavior of MnB4–MnB4 and different metallic behaviors of other phases. The estimated hardness of MnB4–MnB4 is 38.3 GPa, which is in good agreement with experimental value. Furthermore, the relationship between hardness and Debye temperature is investigated and verifies that MnB4–MnB4 is a newly potential semiconducting ultrahard material with high melting point. It provides a new perspective of searching for semiconducting superhard materials to be applied in extreme conditions.

Abstract:

Novel humidity sensors based on semiconducting metal oxides with good humidity-sensing properties have attracted extensive attention, which due to their high sensitivity at room temperature, high safety, low hysteresis, and long-term stability. As a typical p-type semiconductor metal oxide, CuO is considered to be a high-performance moisture-sensitive material; however, with the development of production, the complex working environment has put forward higher requirements for its humidity sensitivity, especially sensitivity and stability. In this regard, workers around the world are working to improve the moisture-sensing properties of sensing elements. In this review, the humidity-sensing properties of CuO-based moisture-sensitive materials are comprehensively summarized, focusing on effective measures to improve the moisture-sensing properties of CuO-based moisture-sensitive materials, including surface modification and nanocomposites. The future research of semiconducting metal oxide humidity-sensitive materials is also prospected.
