N-type doping in Si by shallow impurities, such as P, As and Sb, exhibits an intrinsic limit due to the Fermi-level pinning via defect complexes at high doping concentrations. Here we demonstrate that doping Si with the chalcogen Te by…
Dispersed impurities in diamond present a flourishing platform for research in quantum informatics, spintronics and single phonon emitters. Based on the vast pool of experimental and theoretical work describing impurity atoms in diamond, we…
We investigate hyper-doping, a promising approach to introduce a high concentration of impurities into silicon beyond its solid solubility limit, for its potential applications in near-infrared plasmonics. We systematically explore the…
High-density structures of sub-surface phosphorus dopants in silicon continue to garner interest as a silicon-based quantum computer platform, however, a much-needed confirmation of their dopant arrangement has been lacking. In this work,…
We investigated the electronic properties of the topological insulator Bi$_{2}$Te$_{3}$ by scanning tunneling microscopy and spectroscopy at low temperature. We obtained high-resolution quasiparticle interference data of the topological…
Bi$_2$Se$_3$ is a topological insulator and it is often doped with Te to compensate the $n$-type carriers due to Se vacancies. Different doping patterns of Te would influence the transport characteristics of the surface states. We study the…
Using high-throughput automation of ab-initio impurity embedding simulations, we created a database of $3d$ and $4d$ transition metal defects embedded into the prototypical topological insulator (TI) Bi$_2$Te$_3$. We simulate both single…
Recent work on atomic-precision dopant incorporation technologies has led to the creation of both boron and aluminum $\delta$-doped layers in silicon with densities above the solid solubility limit. We use density functional theory to…
The In-doped topological crystalline insulator Sn$_{1-x}$In$_x$Te is a promising candidate for a topological superconductor, where it is theoretically suggested that In creates an impurity state responsible for superconductivity. We…
Secondary Ions Mass Spectroscopy and Hall effect measurements were performed on boron doped silicon with concentration between 0.02 at.% and 12 at.%. Ultra-high boron doping was made by saturating the chemisorption sites of a Si wafer with…
Non-invasive local probes are needed to characterize bulk defects in binary and ternary chalcogenides. These defects contribute to the non-ideal behavior of topological insulators. We have studied bulk electronic properties via $^{125}$Te…
The analytical solutions of the equations describing impurity diffusion due to migration of nonequilibrium impurity interstitials were obtained for the impurity redistribution during ion implantation at elevated temperatures and for…
Bi$_2$Te$_3$ is a topological insulator whose unique properties result from topological surface states in the band gap. The neutralization of scattered low energy Na$^+$, which is sensitive to dipoles that induce inhomogeneities in the…
The bonding properties of tilt boundary in poly-silicon and the effect of interstitial impurities are investigated by first-principles. In order to obtain thorough information on the nature of chemical bondings in these solid systems, an…
A reliable route to the deterministic fabrication of impurity ion donors in silicon is required to advance quantum computing architectures based upon such systems. This paper reports the ability to dope isotopically-defined unique…
The influence of individual impurities of Fe on the electronic properties of topological insulator Bi$_2$Se$_3$ is studied by Scanning Tunneling Microscopy. The microscope tip is used in order to remotely charge/discharge Fe impurities. The…
Infinite-layer nickelate superconductors have recently been discovered to share both similarities and differences with cuprate superconductors. Notably, the incorporation of hydrogen (H) through topotactic reduction has been found to play a…
First-principles calculations have been performed to study the formation of defect complexes in Ti doped alpha-Al2O3 crystals. The formation energies of isolated Ti3+ and Ti4+ defects, pairs, triples and quadruples of Ti ions and Al…
We report experiments on surface nanopatterning of Si targets which are irradiated with 2 keV Ar + ions impinging at near-glancing incidence, under concurrent co-deposition of Au impurities simultaneously extracted from a gold target by the…
Topological insulators embody a new state of matter characterized entirely by the topological invariants of the bulk electronic structure rather than any form of spontaneously broken symmetry. Unlike the 2D quantum Hall or quantum…
