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. …”

Investigating the charge separation and transport in iron based photoanodes for solar-driven water splitting by Bassi, Prince Saurabh

“…It is proposed that surface mediated water oxidation was enhanced for the heterojunction films which allowed firstly the trapping of holes in the surface states and secondly facile transfer of these holes into the electrolyte for water oxidation. …”

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. …”
