Silicon and CMOS-Compatible Spintronics
Silicon, the main material of microelectronics, is attractive for extending the functionality of MOSFETs by using the electron spin. However, spin lifetime decay in the siliconon-insulator transistor channel is a potential threat to spindriven devices using silicon. We predict a giant enhancement of the electron spin lifetime in silicon thin films by applying uniaxial mechanical stress. The adv...
متن کاملEfficient silicon based light emitters
Recent progress on electrically driven silicon based light emitters is reviewed, with emphasis on our work on light emitting pn diodes (LED) and MOS devices doped with rare-earth elements. The LEDs were fabricated by high-dose boron implantation, producing nanoscale modifications in the material. The electroluminescence (EL) efficiency increases with temperature, reaching 0.1% (wall plug effici...
متن کاملSelf-assembled fullerene nanostructures.
This review briefly summarizes recent developments in fabrication techniques of shape-controlled nanostructures of fullerene crystals across different length scales and the self-assembled mesostructures of functionalized fullerenes both in solutions and solid substrates.
متن کاملSilicon and Germanium Nanostructures for Photovoltaic Applications: Ab-Initio Results
Actually, most of the electric energy is being produced by fossil fuels and great is the search for viable alternatives. The most appealing and promising technology is photovoltaics. It will become truly mainstream when its cost will be comparable to other energy sources. One way is to significantly enhance device efficiencies, for example by increasing the number of band gaps in multijunction ...
