Solution Processing and Self-Organization of PbS Quantum Dots Passivated with Formamidinium Lead Iodide (FAPbI(3))

Frank Nüesch

Solution-processed lead sulfide quantum dots (PbS QDs) are very attractive as NIR-active semiconductors for the fabrication of cost-efficient optoelectronic devices. To control the thin film carrier transport, as well as stability, surface passivation is o ...

Ultralong Spin Lifetime in Light Alkali Atom Doped Graphene

László Forró, Bálint Náfrádi, Péter Szirmai

Today's great challenges of energy and informational technologies are addressed with a singular compound, Li-and Na-doped few-layer graphene. All that is impossible for graphite (homogeneous and high-level Na doping) and unstable for single-layer graphene ...

Real-Time Detection of Aerosol Metals Using Online Extractive Electrospray Ionization Mass Spectrometry

Christian Ludwig

Metal emissions are of major environmental and practical concern because of their highly toxic effects on human health and ecosystems. Current technologies available in the market for their detection are typically limited by a time resolution of 1 h or lon ...

Engineered acoustic mismatch for anchor loss control in contour mode resonators

Luis Guillermo Villanueva Torrijo, Annalisa De Pastina, Andrea Lozzi

Improving the quality factor (Q) of electromechanical resonators is of paramount importance for different applications, ranging from RF filtering to sensing. In this paper, we present a modified fabrication process flow for contour mode resonators to simul ...

The Periodic Table and Kinetics?

André Merbach, Lothar Helm

Mendeleev in his first publication ordered the chemical elements following an apparent periodicity of properties such as atomic volume and valence. The reactivity of the elements was only studied systematically many years later. To illustrate the systemati ...

To bend or not to bend, the dilemma of multiple bonds

Michele Pizzochero

Beyond the second row of the periodic table, the nature of the multiple bonds between the elements of the main groups remains yet elusive, and "non-classical" bonding schemes are often invoked for their description. Here, focusing on group 14, we have perf ...

A multi-technique approach to study the microstructural properties of tin-based transparent conductive oxides

Federica Landucci

Transparent conductive oxides (TCOs) are semiconductor-like materials that exhibit high electrical conductivity and high optical transparency combined. They are adopted in various applications ranging from gas sensors, to electrochromic windows, to photovo ...

Predicting the reflectivity and colour of metals from first principles

Gianluca Prandini

Gold and copper are the only two elemental metals that show a characteristic colour, due to the presence of a drop in the reflectivity curve inside the visible range. Reflectivities of all other metals are in general high and flat for all visible frequenci ...
