Discrete space charge affected field emission: Flat and hemisphere emitters

Ultrafast charge transfer processes in solution

Charge transfer reactions in solution are of fundamental importance in many areas of chemistry and biology. As commonly accepted, electron transfer reaction is regarded as the simplest chemical reaction because of the absence of bond-breaking and bondforming processes. It plays a key role in biocatalysis and in photosynthesis. On the other hand, neutralisation reactions between Brønsted acids a...

Biological charge transfer via flickering resonance.

Biological electron-transfer (ET) reactions are typically described in the framework of coherent two-state electron tunneling or multistep hopping. However, these ET reactions may involve multiple redox cofactors in van der Waals contact with each other and with vibronic broadenings on the same scale as the energy gaps among the species. In this regime, fluctuations of the molecular structures ...

Solution-processable organic dielectrics for graphene electronics.

We report the fabrication, at low-temperature, of solution processed graphene transistors based on carefully engineered graphene/organic dielectric interfaces. Graphene transistors based on these interfaces show improved performance and reliability when compared with traditional SiO(2) based devices. The dielectric materials investigated include Hyflon AD (Solvay), a low-k fluoropolymer, and va...

Solution Processable Nanowire Field-Effect Transistors

Hybrid field-effect-transistors (FETs) with germanium nanowire (NW) arrays and organic gate dielectric are presented. The nanowire deposition steps are fully compatible with printed electronics route. NW FETs demonstrate good performance with On/Off ratios of ~10 and hole mobilities of ~13 cm/Vs in both nitrogen and air atmosphere. These results suggest that the hybrid nanowire FETs could be us...
