Synergistic-potential engineering enables high-efficiency graphene photodetectors for near- to mid-infrared light by Jiang, Hao, Fu, Jintao, Wei, Jingxuan, Li, Shaojuan, Nie, Changbin, Sun, Feiying, Wu, Steve Qing Yang, Liu, Mingxiu, Dong, Zhaogang, Wei, Xingzhan, Gao, Weibo, Qiu, Cheng-Wei

“…The 2D potential well constructed by dielectric structures can spatially (laterally and vertically) produce a strong trapping force on the photogenerated carriers in graphene and inhibit their recombination, thereby improving the external quantum efficiency (EQE) and photogain of the device with wavelength-immunity, which enable a high responsivity of 0.2 A/W-38 A/W across a broad infrared detection band from 1.55 to 11 µm. …”

Tropical peat subsidence, nutrient losses and oil palm seedling growth due to different water table depths by Abubakar, Safiyanu Hashim

“…The system was made of exchange chamber of air pump with the flow rate ranges between 1 and 3.5 L min-1, exchange chamber of (2670 mL plastic container) and a trap (250 mL Erlenmeyer flask). Ammonia loss from the soil was collected using a boric acid by air flow circulation that was passed through the exchange chamber into a trapping flask containing 75 mL boric acid mixed with bromocresol green and methyl red indicator. …”

Pnictogen-halide semiconductors for photovoltaics by Liu, P

“…All four compositions were excitonic and showed large Stokes shift, which indicted presence of self-trapped excitons. I went into more depth into Cs3Bi2I9, and confirmed via temperature-dependent PL that carrier localisation takes place in this material.…”

In-situ infrared spectroscopy studies of surface reactions over irradiated photocatalysts by Gong, Dangguo

“…However, deviations from the power law are attributed to partial trapping at surface Ti4+ sites. Under inert gas, and depending on the humidity level, photo-adsorption of water is promoted by surface-trapped holes and repelled (or substantially weakened) by surface-trapped electrons. …”

Freezing behaviour of impact droplet on cooled super-hydrophilic mesh and silicon wafer by Chang, Chern Jie

“…A brief extension of the investigation is conducted on a novel pressed-mesh substrate (stainless steel mesh pressed into sheet aluminium) and it is shown that macro-scale mesh properties such as a higher open-area-ratio leads to lesser droplet spreading and more bubble entrapment on impact. This bubble entrapment leads to lower heat transfer rate and slower freezing, showing that macro-scale geometrical features can be used to influence freezing rate.…”
