Doping Bi$_2$Se$_3$ by magnetic ions represents an interesting problem since it may break the time reversal symmetry needed to maintain the topological insulator character. Mn dopants in Bi$_2$Se$_3$ represent one of the most studied…
The pressure driven Mott-transition in Chromium doped V2O3 films is investigated by direct electrical measurements on polycrystalline films with thicknesses down to 10 nm, and doping concentrations of 2%, 5% and 15%. A change in resistivity…
Recent advances in the characterization of hexagonal-diamond silicon (2H-Si) have shown that this material possesses remarkably different structural, electronic, and optical properties as compared to the common cubic-diamond (3C) polytype.…
The atomic thickness of two-dimensional (2D) materials provides a unique opportunity to control material properties and engineer new functionalities by electrostatic doping. Electrostatic doping has been demonstrated to tune the electrical…
A heavy-mass electron state is realized in a doped valence bond solid (Ti1-xVx)2O3. In this system, itinerant holes mediate the mainly ferromagnetic RKKY interaction between the localized magnetic moments and become readily spin-polarized…
When electron doped, the layered transition metal nitrides ${\cal T}$NCl (${\cal T}$ = group IVB transition metal ion) become impressive superconductors with critical temperature T$_c$= 15-26K. Here we take the most studied member, ZrNCl,…
Here, we report an evolution of structural, magnetic and transport behavior in doped SrRu$_{1-x}$Ga$_x$O$_3$ ($x$ $\le$ 0.2). The nonmagnetic dopant Ga$^{3+}$ (3$d^{10}$) not only acts for magnetic site dilution in SrRuO$_3$ but also it…
Modulation-doped AlGaAs/GaAs heterostructures are utilized extensively in the study of quantum transport in nanostructures, but charge fluctuations associated with remote ionized dopants often produce deleterious effects. Electric…
Fluorite structure ferroelectrics, especially hafnium oxide, are widely investigated for their application in non-volatile memories, sensors, actuators, RF devices and energy harvesters. Due to the metastable nature of the ferroelectric…
The role of defects in solids of mixed ionic-covalent bonds such as ferroelectric oxides is complex. Current understanding of defects on ferroelectric properties at the single-defect level remains mostly at the empirical level, and the…
The defect induced chemical expansion in acceptor-doped barium zirconate is investigated using density-functional theory (DFT) calculations. The two defect species involved in the hydration reaction, the +2 charged oxygen vacancy and the…
We use a combination of ab initio calculations and statistical mechanics to investigate the substitution of Li+ for Mg2+ in magnesium hydride (MgH2) accompanied by the formation of hydrogen vacancies with positive charge (with respect to…
The carrier type and density in Bi2Se3 single crystals are systematically tuned by introducing a calcium (Ca) dopant. A carrier density of ~1x1017 cm-3 which corresponds to ~25 meV in the Fermi energy is obtained in both n- and p-type…
Liquid-argon scintillation detectors are used in fundamental physics experiments and are being considered for security applications. Previous studies have suggested that the addition of small amounts of xenon dopant improves performance in…
We have studied metal/organic semiconductor charge injection in poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT) field-effect transistors with Pt and Au electrodes as a function of annealing in vacuum. At low impurity dopant densities, Au/P3HT contact…
Superconductivity in copper oxides emerges on doping holes or electrons into their Mott insulating parent compounds. The spin excitations are thought to be the mediating glue for the pairing in superconductivity. Here the momentum and…
Helium nanodroplets are widely used as a cold, weakly interacting matrix for spectroscopy of embedded species. In this work we excite or ionize doped He droplets using synchrotron radiation and study the effect onto the dopant atoms…
Here we report the structural, electrical and magnetic properties of Fe doped La0.7Ca0.3Mn1-xFexO3 with x = 0.0 to 1.0 prepared by conventional solid state reaction method. Simulated data on XRD shows an increase in volume with an increase…
We report the doping high concentration of tetravalent Ge4+ ions (5 mol % for x = 0.05 to 30 mol % for x = 0.30) at the Fe3+ sites of Fe2-xGexO3 system by chemical coprecipitation route. The charge state of Fe and Ge ions has been modified…
