In this study, β -Ga 2 O 3 films grown on a c-sapphire substrate using low-pressure chemical vapor deposition were subjected to thermal treatment at 1000 °C in air for various duration to investigate the effects of treatment time on the films. The full width at half maximum (FWHM) of x-ray rocking curves initially decreased from 1.62° to 0.98° with increasing treatment time up to 5 h, indicating improved crystallinity. This improvement is likely a result of the reduced angle between Ga 2 O 3 grains and the reconstructed Ga 2 O 3 lattice, oriented towards the (−201) plane due to the thermal treatment, as observed in the transmission electron microscope and electron back-scattering diffraction results. However, under 7 h of treatment, the crystallinity of Ga 2 O 3 degraded, as evidenced by an increased FWHM, as well as by x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, photoluminescence, and time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry results. This degradation can be attributed to the presence of massive oxygen vacancies and the substitutional incorporation of nitrogen into oxygen sites (N O ), resulting in defects.","PeriodicalId":16833,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Physics D","volume":"7 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136058101","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

After pre-bonding was completed, a slicer was used to cut the LiNbO 3 /Si and LiNbO 3 /SiO 2 /Si pairs into 10 × 10 mm 2 squares, respectively. The optimal annealing temperature was determined through multiple annealing experiments. Scanning acoustic microscopy was used to confirm the high bonding rates of the two bonding pairs. Based on hydrophilic experiments and atomic force microscopy, the changes in the hydrophilicity and roughness of the LiNbO 3 , Si, and SiO 2 surfaces before and after activation can be compared. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy was used to characterize the chemical structure composition of LiNbO 3 , Si, and SiO 2 surfaces. The dense interface without defects was observed by transmission electron microscopy. In addition, we explained the bonding mechanism between LiNbO 3 and Si-based materials.

The Li filler-induced rattling of phonon modes and resonant scattering channels, which are validated by the peak features of phonon density of states and scattering rates, efficiently reduce the room temperature thermal conductivity for fully filled structures.

The synergistic effect between the dual metal terminals is analyzed. Our findings reveal that the W terminal provides good electronic conductivity, while the Mo/Cr terminal reduces the molar mass, leading to enhanced energy density.

Both anodes exhibit low diffusion barriers with 0.045 eV for Li and 0.079 eV for Mg. They also maintain structural rigidity throughout the battery cycle.

Comprehensive diagnosis of its chemical composition is important across various fields from medicine, where reactive oxygen and nitrogen play key roles, to surface modification. In applications, a centimeter-scale helium–air jet operates for minutes, featuring micrometer-sized streamers and an atmospheric pressure-induced collision frequency in the hundreds of GHz range. To address this intricate multi-scale issue, we introduce a machine learning approach: using a physics-informed neural network (PINN) to tackle the multi-scale complexities inherent in predicting the complete list of species concentrations, gas temperature, and electron temperature of a CAP jet supplied with a mixture of helium and air. Experimental measurements of O 3 , N 2 O, and NO 2 concentrations downstream of the plasma jet, combined with fundamental physics laws, the conservation of mass and charge, constrain the PINN, enabling it to predict the concentrations of all species that are not available from the experiment, along with gas and electron temperatures. The results, therefore, obey all the physical laws we provided and can have a chemical balance with the measured concentrations. This methodology holds promise for describing and potentially regulating complex systems with limited experimental datasets.","PeriodicalId":16833,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Physics D","volume":"98 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135043501","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Most of the plasma applications and research in the area of low-temperature plasmas (LTPs) are based on the accurate estimations of plasma density and plasma temperature. The conventional methods for electron density measurements offer axial and radial profiles for any given linear LTP device. These methods have major disadvantages of operational range (not very wide), cumbersome instrumentation, and complicated data analysis procedures. The article proposes a deep learning (DL) assisted microwave-plasma interaction-based non-invasive strategy, which can be used as a new alternative approach to address some of the challenges associated with existing plasma density measurement techniques. The electric field pattern due to microwave scattering from plasma is utilized to estimate the density profile. The proof of concept is tested for a simulated training data set comprising a low-temperature, unmagnetized, collisional plasma. Different types of symmetric (Gaussian-shaped) and asymmetrical density profiles, in the range 10 16 –10 19 m −3 , addressing a range of experimental configurations have been considered in our study. Real-life experimental issues such as the presence of noise and the amount of measured data (dense vs sparse) have been taken into consideration while preparing the synthetic training data-sets. The DL-based technique has the capability to determine the electron density profile within the plasma. The performance of the proposed DL-based approach has been evaluated using three metrics- structural similarity index, root mean square logarithmic error, and mean absolute percentage error. The obtained results show promising performance in estimating the 2D radial profile of the density for the given linear plasma device and affirms the potential of the proposed machine learning-based approach in plasma diagnostics.","PeriodicalId":16833,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Physics D","volume":"8 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135044185","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We employ a semi-analytical plane wave expansion method in conjunction with an 8-band $mathbf{k} cdot mathbf{p}$ Hamiltonian to compute the SL electronic structure, paying careful attention to the identification and mitigation of spurious solutions. The calculated SL eigenstates are used directly to compute spontaneous emission spectra and the radiative recombination coefficient $B$. We elucidate the origin of the relatively large $B$ coefficients in InAs/GaSb SLs which, despite the presence of spatially indirect (type-II-like) carrier confinement, are close to that of bulk InAs and compare favourably to those calculated for mid-infrared type-I pseudomorphic and metamorphic quantum well structures having comparable emission wavelengths. Our analysis explicitly quantifies the roles played by carrier localisation (specifically, partial delocalisation of bound electron states) and miniband formation (specifically, miniband occupation and optical selection rules) in determining the magnitude of $B$ and its temperature dependence. We perform a high-throughput optimisation of the room temperature $B$ coefficient in InAs/GaSb SLs across the 3.5 -- 7 $mu$m wavelength range, quantifying the dependence of $B$ on the relative thickness of the electron-confining InAs and hole-confining GaSb layers. This analysis provides guidance for the growth of optimised SLs for mid-infrared light emitters. Our results, combined with the expected low non-radiative Auger recombination rates in structures having spatially indirect electron and hole confinement, corroborate recently observed high output power in prototype InAs/GaSb SL inter-band cascade light-emitting diodes.","PeriodicalId":16833,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Physics D","volume":"73 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135044596","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Herein, the mixed-terminal Ti 3 C 2 T x MXene catalyzing conversion of SF 6 in aqueous solution was explored. The catalytic network on realistic Ti 3 C 2 T x was constructed. By theoretical calculations, target products and the microscopic reaction mechanism were studied. Firstly, SF 6 exhibited different degrees of chemisorption on the constructed Ti 3 C 2 T x surfaces of three varying terminal proportions, with different terminals showing synergistic effects. Secondly, taking the effect of H 2 O and surface hydroxyl into account, the catalytic conversion system of SF 6 on a Ti 3 C 2 (OH) 0.66 O 1.33 surface was constructed, containing 25 sub-reactions with H 2 S as one of the final products. SF 6 went through successive defluorination on the Ti 3 C 2 (OH) 0.66 O 1.33 surface to form low-fluorine sulfide SF x ( x = 5, 4, 3, 2, 1), with energy of 80.685 kcal mol −1 released during the whole process. The energy barriers of all the SF 6 decomposition sub-reactions were significantly lower than that in free space. Besides, O terminals were regarded as potential hydroxyl terminals in aqueous solution, which continuously provided active hydroxyl groups for the Ti 3 C 2 (OH) 0.66 O 1.33 surface. Thus, SF 6 conversion in aqueous solution will not result in deactivation of Ti 3 C 2 T x catalyst. This work provides a theoretical basis for MXene to catalyze SF 6 decomposition in an efficient way.","PeriodicalId":16833,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Physics D","volume":"10 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135302898","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
