Directional emission from electrically injected exciton-polaritons in perovskite metasurfaces by Wang, Yutao, Tian, Jingyi, Klein, Maciej, Adamo, Giorgio, Ha, Son Tung, Soci, Cesare

“…Here a high-finesse metasurface cavity is monolithically patterned in the channel of a perovskite light-emitting transistor to induce a large Rabi splitting of ∼200 meV and more than 50-fold enhancement of the polaritonic emission compared to the intrinsic excitonic emission of the perovskite film. Moreover, the directionality of polaritonic electroluminescence can be dynamically tuned by varying the source-drain bias, which induces an asymmetric distribution of exciton population within the transistor channel. …”

Role of ex-situ HfO2 passivation to improve device performance and suppress X-ray-induced degradation characteristics of in-situ Si3N4/AlN/GaN MIS-HEMTs by Dalapati, Pradip, Li, Hanchao, Arulkumaran, Subramaniam, Ng, Geok Ing

“…Furthermore, due to the generation of chemical vacancies under X-ray, a band tail near the edge of valence band maximum in Si3N4 and HfO2 films can be created. The obtained results suggest that MIS-HEMT fabricated with an atomic layer deposited (ALD)-HfO2 (MIS-HEMT B) has relatively greater performance compared to MIS-HEMT fabricated without ex-situ HfO2 (MIS-HEMT A) according to the higher maximum drain current (Idmax), peak transconductance (gmmax) and lower current collapse, denoting the effectiveness of ALD-HfO2 to passivate the surface traps. …”
