The percentage of substitutional doping of magnetic atoms (Mn) in group-IV-based dilute magnetic semiconductors (DMS) can be increased by co-doping with another conventional electronic dopant (e-dopant) [Zhu et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 100,…
One of the challenges in fusion reactors is the discovery of plasma facing materials capable of withstanding extreme conditions, such as radiation damage and high heat flux. Development of fusion materials can be a daunting task since vast…
Modifying the optoelectronic properties of nanostructured materials through introduction of dopant atoms has attracted intense interest. Nevertheless, the approaches employed are often trial and error, preventing rational design. We…
Measuring the scintillation light in noble gases is an important detection technique in particle physics. Numerous rare event searches like neutrino beam experiments, neutrino-less double beta-decay, and dark matter searches use argon-based…
Mixing heterogeneous Li-ion conductive materials is one of potential ways to enhance the Li-ion conductivity more than that of the parent materials. However, the development of the mixtures had not exhibited significant progress because it…
Metallic nanoparticles embedded in dielectrics permit enhanced capture of light at specific wavelengths through excitation of plasmons, i.e. the quanta of coherent and collective oscillations of large concentrations of nearly free…
Diamond is an outstanding semiconductor for extreme electronics, yet reproducible n-type doping remains a long-standing challenge. Here we demonstrate stable n-type single-crystal diamond grown in a single step by a precisely controlled…
The highly radiopure NaI(Tl) was developed to search for particle candidates of dark matter. The optimized methods were combined to reduce various radioactive impurities. The $^{40}$K was effectively reduced by the re-crystallization…

Time-of-Flight Positron Emission Tomography is a medical imaging technique, based on the detection of two back-to-back {\gamma}-photons generated from radiotracers injected in the body. Its limit is the ability of employed scintillation…
It was recently shown that the energy resolution of Ce-doped LaBr$_3$ scintillator radiation detectors can be crucially improved by co-doping with Sr, Ca, or Ba. Here we outline a mechanism for this enhancement on the basis of electronic…
High-throughput experiments that use combinatorial samples with rapid measurements can be used to provide process-structure-property information at reduced time, cost, and effort. Developing these tools and methods is essential in additive…
We synthesized crystalline films of neodymium nickel oxide (NdNiO3), a perovskite quantum material, switched the films from a metal phase (intrinsic) into an insulator phase (electron-doped) by field-driven lithium-ion intercalation, and…
A combinative approach for chemical analysis makes it possible to distinguish a mixture of a large number of compounds from other mixtures in a single step. This work demonstrates a combinative analysis approach by using surface…
Thermoelectric performance of SnTe has been found to enhance with isovalent doping of alkaline and transition metal elements where most of these elements have solubility of less than 13%. We propose a strategy of doping rare earth element…
