Fabrication of photoluminescent n-type porous silicon (nPS), using electrode-assisted lateral electric field accompanied with a perpendicular magnetic field, is reported. The results have been compared with the porous structures fabricated by means of conventional anodization and electrode-assisted lateral electric field without magnetic field. The lateral electric field (LEF) applied across th...

A low effective oxide thickness of 1.45 nm was achieved in HfAlO films deposited by an electron beam gun evaporator on unheated p-Si substrate. A reduction of the leakage current density from 1 · 10 4 to 4.5 · 10 7 A/cm, at an electric field 3 MV/cm, with annealing temperature and a breakdown electric field of 10 MV/cm were demonstrated for ultra thin films. 2004 Elsevier Ltd.

Flash sintering is one of the newest techniques for sintering ceramics to near full density. It occurs in an appropriate combination of temperature and electric field. Temperature measurement is one of the most serious challenges in this process. In the present study, we tried to model a flash sintering process of 8YSZ and 3YSZ with finite element method to make an assessment for temperature di...

The application of an electric field to a flame modifies the characteristics due collective motion charged particles generated within flame. applied mobilises electrons and ions depending on their polarity, leading localised regions space charge with sufficient density either locally amplify or shield field. A fundamental understanding local is essential for both electrically plasma-assisted co...

We discuss the Schwinger mechanism in scalar QED and derive the multiplicity distribution of particles created under an external electric field using the LSZ reduction formula. Assuming that the electric field is spatially homogeneous, we find that the particles of different momenta are produced independently, and that the multiplicity distribution in one mode follows a Bose-Einstein distributi...

the effect of external magnetic and electric fields, in the range of electroporation and magnetoporation, on lucifer yellow (ly) fluorescence in the absence of cells is studied. electric-field-induced quenching and magnetic field-induced increase are observed for fluorescence intensity of ly. regard to the fact that the variation of field-induced fluorescence, even in the absence of cells, can ...

the exposure of workers to magnetic field that occur in aluminum reduction potrooms has been studied. the pattern of magnetic field intensity has been demonstrated along the shop. it has clearly been shown that the personnel working near the pots are exposed to 20-to 1000-gauss magnetic field. to set limits of exposure to magnetic fields, the literature on the biological effects of stationary m...

We study the steady-state dynamics of the Hubbard model driven out of equilibrium by a constant electric field and coupled to a dissipative heat bath. For a very strong field, we find a dimensional reduction: the system behaves as an equilibrium Hubbard model in lower dimensions. We derive steady-state equations for the dynamical mean-field theory in the presence of dissipation. We discuss how ...

In this study, spectroscopic properties of the single-walled boron-nitride nanotube (SWBNNT) –a semiconductor channel in molecular diodes and molecular transistors–have been investigated under field-free and various applied electric fields by first principle methods.Our analysis shows that increasing the electric field in boron-nitride nanotube (BNNT) decreases the Highest Occupied Crystal Orbi...
