The room-temperature longitudinal piezoresistance of n-type and p-type crystalline silicon along selected crystal axes is investigated under uniaxial compressive stresses up to 3 GPa. While the conductance ($G$) of n-type silicon eventually…
Piezoresistance, the change of a material's electrical resistance ($R$) in response to an applied mechanical stress ($\sigma$), is the driving principle of electromechanical devices such as strain gauges, accelerometers, and cantilever…
Piezoresistance is the change in the electrical resistance, or more specifically the resistivity, of a solid induced by an applied mechanical stress. The origin of this effect in bulk, crystalline materials like Silicon, is principally a…
The giant piezoresistance (PZR) previously reported in silicon nanowires is experimentally investigated in a large number of surface depleted silicon nano- and micro-structures. The resistance is shown to vary strongly with time due to…
A giant, anomalous piezo-response of fully-depleted silicon-on-insulator (FD-SOI) devices under mechanical stress is demonstrated using impedance spectroscopy. This piezo-response strongly depends on the measurement frequency, $\omega$, and…
We have studied the electron transport in SiO${}_2$(Co)/GaAs and SiO${}_2$(Co)/Si heterostructures, where the SiO${}_2$(Co) structure is the granular SiO${}_2$ film with Co nanoparticles. In SiO${}_2$(Co)/GaAs heterostructures giant…
A colossal electroresistance effect is observed around room temperature in a transition metal oxide LuFe2O4. The measurements of resistance under various applied voltages as well as the highly nonlinear current-voltage characteristics…
Magnetic semiconductors are attracting high interest because of their potential use for spintronics, a new technology which merges electronics and manipulation of conduction electron spins. (GaMn)As and (GaMn)N have recently emerged as the…
First principles calculations based on hybrid density functional theory have been used to study the electronic and geometric properties of armchair silicon and germanium nanotubes ranging from A (3, 3) through A (9, 9). The approach used is…
We report room temperature giant baro-resistance ($\approx$128\%) in $Fe_{49}(Rh_{0.93}Pd_{0.07})_{51}$. With the application of external pressure and magnetic field the temperature range of giant baro-resistance ($\approx$600\% at 5K and…
The thermal conductivity of a freestanding single-crystal silicon membrane may be reduced significantly by attaching nanoscale pillars on one or both surfaces. Atomic resonances of the nanopillars locally and intrinsically couple with the…
Layered iridates have been the subject of intense scrutiny on account of their unusually strong spin-orbit coupling, which opens up a narrow gap in a material that would otherwise be a metal. This insulating state is very sensitive to…
(withdrawn)AC resistance of melt-spun granular magnetic Cu85Co15 ribbons was measured as a function of temperature in the range 5-300 K, magnetic field Hdc in the range -60 kOe to 60 kOe, and frequency in the range 1-1000 Hz. A sharp peak…
Previous researches only reported very small interfacial thermal resistances at room temperature due to limitations in sample combinations and methods. Taking cognizance of the importance of mismatched phonon structures, we report values up…
Following the recent discovery of large magnetoresistance at room temperature in polyfluorence sandwich devices, we have performed a comprehensive magnetoresistance study on a set of organic semiconductor sandwich devices made from…
We report low-temperature resistance measurements in a modulation-doped, (311)A GaAs two-dimensional hole system as a function of applied in-plane strain. The data reveal a strong but anisotropic piezoresistance whose magnitude depends on…
The absence of piezoelectricity in silicon makes direct electro-mechanical applications of this mainstream semiconductor impossible. Integrated electrical control of the silicon mechanics, however, would open up new perspectives for on-chip…
We investigate anomalous electrical transport properties of a Ni-TiO2 hybrid system displaying a unique nanostructured morphology. The system undergoes an insulator to metal transition below 150 K with a low temperature metallic phase that…
Piezomagnetism couples strain linearly to magnetic order producing magnetization. Thus, unlike magnetostriction, it enables bidirectional control of a net magnetic moment. If this effect becomes large at room temperature, it may be…
It has been reported that graphite hosts room temperature superconductivity. Here we provide new results that confirm these claims on different samples of highly oriented pyrolytic graphite (HOPG) and commercial flexible graphite gaskets…
