Dec 18, 2007 - Inelastic X-ray scattering (IXS) is a powerful technique capable of probing the dynamic behavior and electronic structure of materials. Apr 29, 2014 - The position requires a doctorate in physics or materials science or an equivalent degree. It is found that the (This article belongs to the Special Issue Compound Semiconductor Materials). Nov 26, 2012 - The electronic structure and optical properties of ternary GaAs:Bi alloy are investigated by first principles calculations. With hundreds of individually controlled layers that together are about 200 nanometers thick." Ferroelectric materials store electronic charge at their surfaces because of the asymmetric displacements of ions within their crystalline structure. Good experience with materials modeling and electronic structure calculations using density functional theory is required. Apr 22, 2014 - The continuous downward scaling of electronic devices has renewed attention on the importance of the role of material interfaces in the functioning of key components in electronic technology in recent times. Apr 30, 2014 - Brian LeRoy, UA associate professor of physics (right) and graduate student and first author of the study, Matthew Yankowitz, use a tunneling electron microscope to probe the electronic properties of graphene. Aug 25, 2008 - Electronic structure measurements indicate that the Co states lie close to the valence-band edge with pinning of the Fermi level primarily due to native defects yielding a heavily n-doped material. Sep 12, 2013 - With first-principle electronic structure theory, Li and her colleagues decipher the detailed properties of materials at the atomic scale what happens at the interfaces where they meet. 5 days ago - Different materials integrated into a single electronic device. Feb 14, 2013 - MID technology allows the material mixture of a (conventional) combination of PCB and mechanical parts, which usually consist of a great number of materials, to be replaced by a metallized plastic part (MID). Mar 3, 2014 - Not all of the atoms of strontium titanate are arranged in the same pattern: if the material is cut at a certain angle, the atoms of the surface layer form a structure, which is different from the structure in the bulk of the material. Current computational techniques for the development and optimization of energy materials, outlining their strengths, limitations, and future applications. (Photo: Daniel Stolte/UANews) Most materials require high temperatures, pressure or both to change their crystal structure, which is the reason why graphite doesn't spontaneously turn into diamond or vice versa. Dec 8, 2011 - In this study a prototypical model system was investigated with PES with the aim to develop a measurement protocol that allows the determination of electronic properties for such hybrid materials. Yu adds that the team is now busy trying to integrate a thin insulating layer of another 2D material – hexagonal boron nitride – into its structure.
