The delay of photodetectors can be affected by intensity, reverse bias, and temperature through different effects. An optical pilot tone superimposed on the detectors allows the independent measurement of such phase errors in the complete…
Illumination has been long known to affect semiconductor defect properties during either growth or operating process. Current theories of studying the illumination effects on defects usually have the assumption of unaffected formation…
Using metamaterial absorbers, we have shown that metallic layers in the absorbers do not necessarily constitute undesired resistive heating problem for photovoltaics. Tailoring the geometric skin depth of metals and employing the natural…
The properties of dielectric and piezoelectric oxides are determined by their processing history, crystal structure, chemical composition, microstructure, dopants (or defect) distribution, and defect kinetics. These materials are essential…
Nanoscale devices are being extensively studied for their tunable electronic and optical properties, but the influence of impurities and defects is amplified at these length scales and can lead to poorly understood variations in…
Halide perovskites are recently emerged as one of the frontline optoelectronic materials for device applications and have been extensively studied in past few years. Among these while, lead-based materials were most widely explored,…
In recent years, halide perovskite materials have been used to make high performance solar cell and light-emitting devices. However, material defects still limit device performance and stability. Here, we use synchrotron-based Bragg…
The excellent optoelectronic properties, straightforward synthesis, and robust material stability of quasi-2D metal halide perovskites have made them a hot research topic for optoelectronic devices. In layered organic-inorganic perovskites,…
Deviations from the perfect atomic arrangements in crystals play an important role in affecting their properties. Similarly, diffusion of such deviations is behind many microstructural changes in solids. However, observation of point defect…
The voltage-carrying state of superconducting NbTiN nanowires, used for single-photon detectors, is analyzed. Upon lowering the current, the wire returns to the superconducting state in a steplike pattern, which differs from sample to…
Halide perovskites are semiconductors that exhibit sharp optical absorption edges and small Urbach energies allowing for efficient collection of sunlight in thin-film photovoltaic devices. However, halide perovskites also exhibit large…
Photodetection is a process in which an incident field induces a polarization current in the detector. The interaction of the field with this induced current excites an electron in the detector from a localized bound state to a state in…
NaSbS2 is a semiconductor that was recently shown to have remarkable efficacy as a solar absorber indicating efficient charge collection even in defected material. We report first principles calculations of properties that show (1) an…
Solid-state point defects are attracting increasing attention in the field of quantum information science, because their localized states can act as a spin-photon interface in devices that store and transfer quantum information, which have…
Photogalvanic effect (PGE) occurring in noncentrosymmetric materials enables the generation of the open-circuit voltage that is much larger than the bandgap, making it rather attractive in solar cells. However, the magnitude of the PGE…
We propose to use the defect creation energy loss in commonly used high energy physics solid state detectors as a tool to statistically identify dark matter signal from background. We simulate the energy loss in the process of defect…
This paper experimentally demonstrates that the AC impedance spectrum of the LED as a photodetector heavily depends on the received optical power, which may cause the impedance mismatch between the LED and the post trans-impedance…
With excellent efficiencies being reported from multiple labs across the world, device stability and the degradation mechanisms have emerged as the key aspects that could determine the future prospects of perovskite solar cells. However,…
In recent years, graphene Field-Effect-Transistors (GFETs) have demonstrated an outstanding potential for Terahertz (THz) photodetection due to their fast response and high-sensitivity. Such features are essential to enable emerging THz…
