Hydrothermal Synthesis, Structure Investigation, and Oxide Ion Conductivity of Mixed Si/Ge-Based Apatite-Type Phases by Li, Henan, Baikie, Tom, Pramana, Stevin S., Shin, J. Felix, Keenan, Philip J., Slater, Peter R., Brink, Frank, Hester, James, An, Tao, White, Timothy John

“…Quantitative X-ray microanalysis established the partial (<15 at%) substitution of La3+ by Na+ (introduced from the NaOH hydrothermal reagent), which showed a slight preference to enter the AI 4f framework position over the AII 6h tunnel site. Moreover, retention of hydroxide (OH–) was confirmed by IR spectroscopy and thermogravimetric analysis, and these apatites are best described as oxyhydroxyapatites. …”

Great enhancement effect of 20-40 nm Ag NPs on solar-blind UV response of the mixed-phase MgZnO detector by Han, Shun, Xia, Hao, Lu, Youming, Hu, Sirong, Zhang, Dao Hua, Xu, Wangying, Fang, Ming, Liu, Wenjun, Cao, Peijiang, Zhu, Deliang

“…The slight enhancement in UV light intensity from 20 to 40 nm Ag NPs induces multiple tunnel breakdown phenomena within the mixed-phase MgZnO thin film, which is the main reason for the abnormal great enhancement effect on deep UV response of the device, so the recovery speed of the modified device is not influenced. …”

Leakage current conduction mechanism in 3D capacitor embedded in Through-Silicon Via (TSV) by Lin, Ye, Tan, Chuan Seng

“…Two sets of test vehicles, 400 nm sputtered TiN/30 nm ALD Al2O3/400 nm sputtered TiN and 50 nm ALD TiN/10 nm ALD Al2O3/50 nm ALD TiN, have been characterized for their leakage current, respectively. FN tunneling and PF emission are identified for the first set, whereas Schottky emission, hopping conduction, PF emission and FN tunneling are identified for the second set. …”
