Herein, the fabrication and characterization of a novel diamond‐based microdosimeter are proposed. The microdosimeter consists of an array of single‐crystal diamond Schottky diodes about 1.5 μm thick connected in parallel. The detector prototypes are characterized using the ion beam‐induced charge technique, employing a 6 MeV carbon ions microbeam. Despite a good overall response, the first prototypes are affected by the “bridge effect”: a charge collection beneath the metallic bridges connecting the sensitive volumes (SVs), which alters the energy deposition spectrum. To mitigate the bridge effect, different technological solutions are explored: the selective growth of intrinsic diamond layers and the use of an insulating material such as photoresist. These second prototypes reveal a good SV spatial definition without any charge collection from the bridges and a good response homogeneity within the SVs ranging between 3% and 5% full‐width‐half‐maximum among the different prototypes. While the cell‐like thickness and lateral dimensions of SVs make the diamond microdosimeter array ideal for radiobiological applications, its array configuration can make it highly versatile to perform under different fluence rate conditions in particle therapy.","PeriodicalId":20150,"journal":{"name":"physica status solidi (a)","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-06-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141371488","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}

Due to the transverse Seebeck effect, a thermoelectric (TE) voltage is generated perpendicular to a temperature gradient ΔT, that is applied at a certain angle φ with respect to the stacked layers (0° < φ < 90°). The TE properties of layered artificial anisotropic materials are described analytically using existing concepts and extending the available definitions to develop a consistent image of anisotropic media for TE energy generation. Based on these analytical descriptions, the TE performance of ceramic oxide–metal composites and transverse TE generators (TTEG) made of them are numerically calculated and presented in contour plots. These so‐called micro‐ and macro‐Babin plots map the influence of internal geometric parameters, i.e., the layer thickness ratio and the angle φ of the applied temperature gradient with respect to the stacked layers. Based on these diagrams, the optimal TTEG geometry can be narrowed down in a simple and fast way. In addition, the diagrams are used for a material screening to evaluate the suitability of different oxide ceramics for use in a TTEG.","PeriodicalId":20150,"journal":{"name":"physica status solidi (a)","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-06-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141373276","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}

A hole concentration of 1.8 × 1018 cm−3 is clearly observed by removing the AlGaN contact layer (not underneath of electrodes) to minimize a parallel conduction. The hole concentration shows a very weak temperature dependence from room temperature down to 150 K, suggesting that the holes are generated by polarization doping.

Herein, it is shown that the capacitance of ceramic capacitors can change significantly under continuous gamma‐ray irradiation. Moreover, it is noticed that ex situ measurements will underestimate the effect comparing with the in situ one. Herein, it is discovered that this difference is due to the gamma‐ray‐induced photoelectric field, which dissipate rapidly in ex situ measurements. While the impact of the photoelectric field on the capacitance can be seen in situ, due to the recombination of photogenerated carriers and annealing of defects after irradiation, ex situ measurements only account for a part of the irradiation damage.

Traditionally, CdS has served as the buffer layer in these solar cells. However, there is growing scientific exploration aimed at replacing CdS with alternative materials. This work focuses on leveraging a graded CZTSSe absorber layer alongside tungsten disulfide (WS2) 2D transition metal dichalcogenides. WS2 semiconductor as buffer layer is less price, low toxicity with high‐stability, and its performance is compared to that of CdS/CZTSSe solar cells. This comparative study aims to assess the efficacy of the WS2/CZTSSe structure as a potential alternative to the conventional CdS/CZTSSe configuration, with the overarching objective of enhancing overall solar cell efficiency. Initially, to demonstrate the accuracy of our simulated results, a comparison is made between the reported experimental data of CdS/CZTSSe and the simulated data. This numerical investigation utilizes solar cell capacitance simulator ‐1D software. The primary focus of this research is to evaluate the effects of varying thicknesses and doping densities of the absorber and buffer layers, as well as WS2, CdS, and CZTSSe defect densities, on Voc, Jsc, fill factor (FF), and power conversion efficiency. The aim is to achieve optimal device performance through systematic optimization of these parameters. The findings reveal that the WS2/CZTSSe solar cell achieves the highest conversion efficiency of 14.38%, accompanied by a Voc of 0.6920 V, Jsc of 24.96 mA cm−2, and FF of 83.28%. This performance surpasses that of the CdS/CZTSSe configuration, which demonstrates an efficiency of 12.74%, Voc of 0.518 V, Jsc of 37.77 mA cm−2, and FF of 65.10%. These results hold significant promise for the practical implementation of WS2/CZTSSe solar cell structures, offering a pathway toward generating clean, pollution‐free, and cost‐effective energy solutions.","PeriodicalId":20150,"journal":{"name":"physica status solidi (a)","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-06-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141268872","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}

However, incorporating a high concentration of dopants, i.e., hyperdoping, to nanostructured silicon is expected to bring broadband absorption ranging from UV to short‐wavelength IR (SWIR, <2500 nm). In this work, we prepare nanostructured silicon using cryogenic plasma etching, which is then hyperdoped with selenium (Se) through ion implantation. Besides sub‐bandgap absorption, ion implantation forms crystal damage, which can be recovered through flash lamp annealing. We study crystal damage and broadband (250–2500 nm) absorption from planar and nanostructured surfaces. We first show that nanostructures survive ion implantation hyperdoping and flash lamp annealing under optimized conditions. Secondly, we demonstrate that nanostructured silicon has a 15% higher sub‐bandgap absorption (1100–2500 nm) compared to its non‐hyperdoped nanostructure counterpart while maintaining 97% above‐bandgap absorption (250–1100 nm). Lastly, we simulate the sub‐bandgap absorption of hyperdoped Si nanostructures in a 2D model using the finite element method. Simulation results show that the sub‐bandgap absorption is mainly limited by the thickness of the hyperdoped layer rather than the height of nanostructures.","PeriodicalId":20150,"journal":{"name":"physica status solidi (a)","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-06-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141273812","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}
