AlScN is a new wide bandgap, high-k, ferroelectric material for RF, memory, and power applications. Successful integration of high quality AlScN with GaN in epitaxial layer stacks depends strongly on the ability to control lattice…

The discovery of ferroelectricity in wurtzite nitrides has paved the way for measuring and understanding spontaneous polarization in III-V semiconductors. However, the calculation of polarization effects at heterointerfaces - crucial for…

We present a study of the polarization properties of emission lines from single InGaN/GaN quantum dots (QDs). The QDs, formed by spinodal decomposition within ultra-thin InGaN quantum wells, are investigated using single-QD…

The spatial structure of the transition region between an insulator and an electrolyte solution was studied with x-ray scattering.The electron density profile across the n-hexane/silica sol interface (solutions with 5-nm, 7-nm, and 12-nm…

Inorganic nitrides with wurtzite crystal structures are well-known semiconductors used in optoelectronic devices. In contrast, rocksalt-based nitrides are known for their metallic and refractory properties. Breaking this dichotomy, here we…

Since the discovery of two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) at the oxide interface of LaAlO3/SrTiO3, improving carrier mobility has become an important issue for device applications. In this paper, by using an alternate polar perovskite…

We investigate the effect of basal-plane stacking faults on the structural, electronic, and polarization properties of wurtzite GaN and ZnO. This theoretical study is performed within density-functional theory (DFT) using periodic hexagonal…

We reported on the observation of extremely high-density ($>10^{14}$cm$^{-2}$) 2D electron gas in N-polar AlGaN/GaN heterostructures grown on sapphire substrates. Due to introducing the GaN/AlN superlattice (SL) back barrier between the GaN…

The transport of holes through p-doped wurtzite bulk GaN and AlGaN is poor so transport of holes through GaN/AlGaN superlattices has been proposed and investigated theoretically and experimentally with experimental results showing poor…

Accurate values for polarization discontinuities between pyroelectric materials are critical for understanding and designing the electronic properties of heterostructures. For wurtzite materials, the zincblende structure has been used in…

Epitaxial Sc$_x$Al$_{1-x}$N thin films of ~100 nm thickness grown on metal polar GaN exhibit significantly enhanced relative dielectric permittivity ($\epsilon_r$) values relative to AlN. $\epsilon_r$ values of ~17 to 21 for Sc contents of…

We theoretically investigate electron spin injection and spin-polarization sensitive current detection at Schottky contacts between a ferromagnetic metal and an n-type or p-type semiconductor. We use spin-dependent continuity equations and…

The long-missing polarization-induced two-dimensional hole gas is finally observed in undoped gallium nitride quantum wells. Experimental results provide unambiguous proof that a 2D hole gas in GaN grown on AlN does not need acceptor…

Density functional theory calculations demonstrate that rocksalt MgN is a magnetic material at the verge of half-metallicity, with an electronic structure robust against strong correlations and spin-orbit interaction. Furthermore the…

Wurtzite ferroelectrics, particularly aluminum scandium nitride (AlScN), have emerged as a promising materials platform for nonvolatile memories, offering high polarization values exceeding 100 uC/cm2. However, their high coercive fields…
