While Si is an effective insertion type anode for Li-ion batteries, crystalline Si has been shown to be unsuitable for Na and Mg storage due, in particular, to insufficient binding strength. It has recently been reported that Si nanowires…
Using hybrid density functional theory, we investigated formation energies and transition energies of possible donor-like defects in GaInO3, with the aim of exploring the sources of the experimentally observed n-type conductivity in this…
Density-functional studies of the electron states in the dilute magnetic semiconductor GaN:Mn reveal major differences for the case of the Mn impurity at the substitutional site Mn_Ga versus the interstitial site Mn_I. The splitting of the…
Alloy scattering in random AlGaN alloys drastically reduces the electron mobility and therefore the power-electronics figure of merit. As a result, Al compositions greater than 75% are required to obtain even a two-fold increase of the…
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…
Low internal and external quantum efficiencies in high Aluminium content AlGaN-based deep-ultraviolet light-emitting diode (DUV-LED) occurred due to strong polarization effects, spontaneous and piezoelectric polarization, at the interface…

Nearly all ultrawide-bandgap oxides are affected by hole localization that limits $p$-type conductivity and thus potential applications for these materials. Highly localized holes, also known as hole polarons, trap in the vicinity of…
Aluminum nitride is a promising ultra-wide band gap semiconductor for optoelectronics and power electronics. However, its practical applications have been limited by challenges with doping and achieving high electrical conductivity. Recent…

Tuning of the electronic properties of pre-synthesized colloidal semiconductor nanocrystals (NCs) by doping plays a key role in the prospect of implementing them in printed electronics devices such as transistors, and photodetectors. While…
Silicon (Si) donors in GaAs have been the topic of extensive studies since Si is the most common and well understood n-type dopant in III-V semiconductor devices and substrates. The indirect bandgap of AlAs compared to the direct one of…
To meet the growing demands of advanced electronic systems, next-generation power and RF semiconductor devices must operate efficiently at higher power levels and switching frequencies while remaining compact. Current state-of-the-art GaN…
Cubic boron nitride (cBN) is an ultra-wide bandgap, super-hard material with potential for extreme-temperature and -pressure applications. A proof-of-principle p-n junction using cBN was demonstrated almost three decades ago. However, to…
