The utilization of chlorofluorocarbons and hydrochlorofluorocarbons as thermal carrier agents in traditional cooling and air conditioning systems has sparked a surge in exploration toward pioneering refrigeration and spatial conditioning technologies. Chalcogenides, known for their capacity to amplify the thermoelectric efficiency of materials and their adaptability across a broad spectrum of temperatures, stand out as pivotal components in thermoelectric materials. Despite their existing suboptimal performance, these materials hold substantial promise as power generators and as solid-state Peltier coolers, attracting significant attention and positioning them as subjects ripe for further investigation. Categorized into alkali or alkaline earth, transition metal, and main-group chalcogenides, these materials and their respective subclasses are meticulously scrutinized to pinpoint the most suitable thermoelectric materials for specific applications with an optimal operational temperature span. In the quest for energy-efficient technologies characterized by simple designs, absence of moving components, and superior stability, thermoelectric materials play a crucial role. This review highlights the advancements in theoretical parameters as well as the figure of merit (<i>ZT</i>) of chalcogenide materials, emphasizing their device applications.

During manufacturing, the interfacial reaction of Cu with molten Sn-based solder results in the formation of brittle intermetallic compounds (IMC) that accelerate the degradation of these systems. The evolution of IMC follows during operation due to electromigration (EM), which in addition is responsible for Cu depletion. Both mechanisms are strongly affected by the anisotropic diffusion of Sn resulting in large variability of solders life time prediction. We developed a model to study the formation and evolution of IMC and the diffusion of copper due to EM that includes the impact of Sn crystal orientation on solder failure during fabrication and operation.

The noise is then often estimated using a shot noise approximation on the dark current. Both II–VI and III–V communities use this rule of thumb as a reference for well-performing IR photodiodes. For HOT applications, a dark current close to this rule07 is considered a necessary condition but not a sufficient one to obtain a high-performance IR imager. Indeed, when limited by shot noise, rule07 describes well the noise behavior of the considered device. However, when considering low-frequency noise, it fails to describe the expected performances. In this paper, we focus on another figure-of-merit, dedicated to detector low-frequency noise rather than dark current. Systemic 1/<i>f</i> noise investigation in an IR detector was first reported by Tobin et al. in 1980. There is today a relative consensus on the fact that measured 1/<i>f</i> noise is proportional to the dark current. The ratio between the amplitude of the 1/<i>f</i> noise and the dark current of the same devices may therefore be used as a figure-of-merit for a given technology. This ratio (called the Tobin factor <span>({alpha }_{text{T}})</span>) therefore appears adequate to compare different technologies as a figure-of-merit qualifying 1/<i>f</i> noise properties. This dimensionless ratio can also be very useful for optimizing a particular technology or process. However, in order to be relevant, this figure-of-merit must be estimated carefully as it appears, for instance, pixel pitch-dependent. Different examples of Tobin coefficient extraction are presented in this paper. We show that, depending on the technologies, the values of the Tobin coefficient can spread over several orders of magnitude. However, only low values result in high-quality IR imagers.

There has been considerable research demonstrating the feasibility of converting mechanical motions into electrical energy by using these devices. In the design of TENGs, the power generated and its optimization are the most important aspects. However, not all factors affecting TENG performance are well understood. The main criteria for choosing materials is surface charge density, flexibility, and mechanical resistance. In some types of TENGs that are time-varying capacitors, the dielectric constant of the material can be a significant factor affecting the performance of these nanogenerators. In this research, using simulation, we investigate the effect of increasing the dielectric constant on the performance of the TENG in the contact-separation model (CSTENG). We find that increasing the dielectric constant is very effective in thick structures; it boosts the charge transferred under short-circuit conditions (<i>Q</i><sub>SC</sub>), current, maximum power, and figure of merit. However, there is little effect of the dielectric constant on thin CSTENG performance. Hence, the high-K material utilization effect is relaxed by thin dielectric layers. We then analyze the conditions of frequency matching and we obtain the optimal condition to achieve maximum power. To achieve optimal power output, thin CSTENGs require materials with a low dielectric constant. In contrast, thick structures can be optimized by utilizing high-K materials. Based on these findings, design rules for TENGs can be derived.</p><h3 data-test=\"abstract-sub-heading\">Graphical Abstract</h3>\u0000","PeriodicalId":626,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Electronic Materials","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2024-07-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141772975","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The optical properties of Dy<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub>/p-porous GaAs were analyzed using various techniques including ellipsometry and photoluminescence (PL) to obtain information on surface and interface quality, bandgap, optical constants, dielectric constant, and thickness. The photoluminescence (PL) spectra revealed an intense peak at 835 nm and additional weak emission peaks at 473 nm and 540 nm, respectively. The observed intense peak can be directly attributed to the interband recombination process of free carriers in the direct bandgap of p-GaAs, while the weak emission peaks at 473 nm and 540 nm correspond to 4F9/2-6H15/2 and 4F9/2-6H13/2 transitions, respectively. In the spectral region of 350 nm to 500 nm, the average thickness of the Dy<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> layer was determined to be 11 nm. The electrical properties of the (Co/Au)/Dy<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub>/p-porous GaAs metal–oxide–semiconductor (MOS) capacitor were investigated via capacitance–voltage (C–V) and conductance–voltage (G/ω–V) measurements in the temperature range of 100–400 K and frequency range of 50 Hz to 1 MHz, respectively. The experiments demonstrated that both capacitance and conductance were influenced by temperature and frequency. Additionally, the effect of temperature on interface state density (<i>N</i><sub>ss</sub>) was studied, which showed that an increase in temperature led to a decrease in the interface state density (<i>N</i><sub>ss</sub>) of the (Co/Au)/Dy<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub>/p-porous GaAs (MOS) capacitor, as calculated by the Hill–Coleman method. The mean values of <i>N</i><sub>ss</sub> for the (Co/Au)/Dy<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub>/p-porous GaAs (MOS) capacitor were determined to be approximately 10<sup>12</sup> eV<sup>−1</sup> cm<sup>−2</sup>, making it suitable for electronic device applications. The lower values of <i>N</i><sub>ss</sub> can be attributed to a low amount of local defect microstructure at the Dy<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub>/p-porous GaAs interface due to the incorporation of the Dy<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> layer into the porous GaAs.
