Rapid thermal oxygen annealing formation of nickel silicide nanocrystals for nonvolatile memory
Discrete NiSi nanocrystals were synthesized by rapid thermal oxygen annealing of very thin Si/Ni/Si films on a SiO2 tunneling layer. They were used to fabricate metal–oxide–semiconductor capacitor memory. Electrical properties of the memory device such as programming, erasing and retention were characterized and good performance was achieved.

TYPES OF MELTS From the practical viewpoint, melts may be classified according to melting points which may limit the available techniques. The lowest melting, with working temperatures up to 250°, are typified by the LiNO3—NaNO3— KNO3 eutectic, NaNO3—KNO3 eutectic, LiClO4, and ammonium formate. With these solvents it is possible to use the dropping mercury electrode, or hanging mercury drop ele...
متن کاملWater oxidation electrocatalysis by a zeolitic imidazolate framework.
The search for efficient water oxidation catalysts (WOCs) is of paramount importance in energy and environmental fields, but there exists no good non-noble catalyst that works under acidic and alkaline conditions. Intensive investigations have recently focused on cobalt based complex/solid catalysts. Here, we have introduced a new type of cobalt-based WOC made of metal-organic frameworks where ...
متن کاملMolten Salts and Isotope Separation
The work on molten salts and isotope separation performed over the years at Université Pierre et Marie Curie and at Collège de France is critically reviewed. This research, closely related to A. Klemm’s pioneering contributions, leads among other things to the discovery of the effect now called the ‘Chemla effect’, after the late Professor Marius Chemla. These studies of ionic motions in melts,...
متن کاملSilicon/hematite core/shell nanowire array decorated with gold nanoparticles for unbiased solar water oxidation.
We report the facile fabrication of three-dimensional (3D) silicon/hematite core/shell nanowire arrays decorated with gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) and their potential application for sunlight-driven solar water splitting. The hematite and AuNPs respectively play crucial catalytic and plasmonic photosensitization roles, while silicon absorbs visible light and generates high photocurrent. Under sim...
