Localized interface states in abrupt semiconductor heterojunctions are studied within a tight-binding model. The intention is to provide a microscopic foundation for the results of similar studies which were based upon the two-band model…
Several IV-VI semiconductor compounds made of heavy atoms, such as Pb$_{1-x}$Sn$_{x}$Te, may undergo band-inversion at the $L$ point of the Brillouin zone upon variation of their chemical composition. This inversion gives rise to…
Deep learning has achieved unprecedented success in various object detection tasks with huge amounts of labeled data. However, obtaining large-scale annotations for medical images is extremely challenging due to the high demand of labour…
Layered indium selenides ($In_{2}Se_{3}$) have recently been discovered to host robust out-of-plane and in-plane ferroelectricity in the $\alpha$ and $\beta$' phases, respectively. In this work, we utilise angle-resolved photoelectron…
We propose a kernel-spectral embedding algorithm for learning low-dimensional nonlinear structures from high-dimensional and noisy observations, where the datasets are assumed to be sampled from an intrinsically low-dimensional manifold and…
We investigate the use of Low Energy Ion Scattering (LEIS) to characterize buried interfaces of ultra-thin films. LEIS spectra contain depth-resolved information in the so-called sub-surface signal. However, the exact correlation between…
Compound semiconductor alloys of the type ABC find widespread applications as their electronic bulk band gap varies continuously with x, and therefore a tayloring of the energy gap is possible by variation of the concentration. We model the…
Compared with conventional grating-based spectrometers, reconstructive spectrometers based on spectrally engineered filtering have the advantage of miniaturization because of the less demand for dispersive optics and free propagation space.…
With the development of affordable aberration-correctors, analytical scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM) studies of complex interfaces can now be conducted at high spatial resolution at laboratories worldwide. Energy-dispersive…
Broadband precision spectroscopy is indispensable for providing high fidelity molecular parameters for spectroscopic databases. We have recently shown that mechanical Fourier transform spectrometers based on optical frequency combs can…
In modern applications multi-sensor arrays are subject to an ever-present demand to accommodate signals with higher bandwidths. Standard methods for broadband beamforming, namely digital beamforming and true-time delay, are difficult and…
Hyperspectral imaging is a powerful technology that is plagued by large dimensionality. Herein, we explore a way to combat that hindrance via non-contiguous and contiguous (simpler to realize sensor) band grouping for dimensionality…
In the present work, a rate-dependent cohesive zone model for the fracture of polymeric interfaces is presented. Inverse calibration of parameters for such complex models through trial and error is computationally tedious due to the large…
We address the problem of reconstructing a multi-band signal from its sub-Nyquist point-wise samples. To date, all reconstruction methods proposed for this class of signals assumed knowledge of the band locations. In this paper, we develop…
The properties of a semiconductor get drastically modified when the crystal point group symmetry is broken under an arbitrary strain. We investigate the family of semiconductors consisting of GaAs, GaSb, InAs and InSb, considering their…
Ultra-wideband 3D imaging spectrometry in the millimeter-submillimeter (mm-submm) band is an essential tool for uncovering the dust-enshrouded portion of the cosmic history of star formation and galaxy evolution. However, it is challenging…
We report valence and conduction band alignments and offsets for heterojunctions between CdCr2Se4, an n-type ferromagnetic semiconductor, and the non-magnetic materials Si and GaAs, evaluated using density functional theory. We explore…
In light of globalized hardware supply chains, the assurance of hardware components has gained significant interest, particularly in cryptographic applications and high-stakes scenarios. Identifying metal lines on scanning electron…
One common task in image forensics is to detect spliced images, where multiple source images are composed to one output image. Most of the currently best performing splicing detectors leverage high-frequency artifacts. However, after an…
In the context of fast developing quantum technologies, locating single quantum objects embedded in solid or fluid environment while keeping their properties unchanged is a crucial requirement as well as a challenge. Such "quantum…
