Aluminum Content Tunability of Structural and Optical Properties in Wide-Gap Semiconducting (AlxGa1-x)2O3
(AlxGa1-x)2O3 alloys have attracted renewed interest due to their potential for use in deep-ultraviolet optical devices and high-powered transistors, but realization of these technologies depends on the ability to tune the ... -
Building Programmable Matter Through DNA-based Chemical Computing
Biology offers compelling proof that macroscopic “living materials” can emerge from reactions between diffusing biomolecules. This work presents how molecular self-organization could be a similarly powerful approach for ... -
Developing Laboratory-Based X-ray Spectroscopies for Energy and Materials Research spectroscopy
Advanced x-ray spectroscopies interrogate a material’s electronic structure in an element-specific manner. Traditionally, X-ray absorption fine structure (XAFS) and X-ray emission spectroscopy (XES) studies are performed ... -
Emergent phenomena in two-dimensional magnetic crystals
Two-dimensional (2D) van der Waals (vdW) crystals and their heterostructures offer a simple, yet powerful platform for discovering emergent phenomena and implementing device structures in the atomically thin limit. Fervent ... -
Measurement of a solid-state triple point at the metal-insulator transition in vanadium dioxide
(2014-04-30)The first-ever accurate measurement of a solid-state triple point in vanadium dioxide was made by performing simultaneous optical and transport measurements on a purpose-built nanomechanical strain apparatus that actively ... -
Micro-focus ARPES of operating 2D devices
With the advent of two-dimensional (2D) materials came a library of new systems that not only individually host novel states of matter but are naturally suited to being stacked into heterostructures – a virtually limitless ... -
Modeling Complex Multicomponent Materials with First-Principles Based Statistical Mechanics and Machine Learning
Recent progress in the engineering of multicomponent, solid-state compounds for optoelectronic applications has entailed an ever expanding range of material chemistries and a rapid increase in material complexity. For ... -
X-ray spectroscopy studies of nonradiative energy transfer processes in luminescent lanthanide materials
Luminescent materials play important roles in energy sciences, through solid state lighting and possible applications in solar energy utilization, and in biomedical research and applications, such as in immunoassays and ...
