- 1. Phys. Rev. Lett. 102, 075506 (2009) , “Proton Tunneling: A Decay Channel of the O-H Stretch Mode in KTaO3”, E. J. Spahr, L. Wen, M. Stavola, L. A. Boatner, L. C. Feldman, N. H. Tolk, and G. LüpkeThe vibrational lifetimes of the O-H and O-D stretch modes in the perovskite oxide KTaO3 are measured by pump-probe infrared spectroscopy. Both stretch modes are exceptionally long lived and exhibit a large “reverse” isotope effect, due to a phonon-assisted proton-tunneling process, which involves the O-Ta-O bending motion. The excited-state tunneling rate is found to be 7 orders of magnitude larger than from the ground state in the proton conducting oxide, BaCeO3 [Phys. Rev. B 60, R3713 (1999)]. (Read more)

Lett. 90, 032906 (2007) , “Large scale ab initio molecular dynamics simulations of hydrogen-induced degradation of Ta diffusion barriers in ultralow-k dielectric systems”, Ling Dai, V. B. C. Tan, Shuo-Wang Yang, Ping Wu, and Xian-Tong ChenIn ultralow-k dielectric systems, the porous dielectrics are normally sealed by a SiC film before the deposition of a Ta diffusion barrier layer. However, the Ta barrier effects are negated when the SiC films are fabricated by plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD). Through large... (Read more)
- 3. Appl. Phys. Lett. 90, 021920 (2007) , “Hydrogen passivation of nitrogen in GaNAs and GaNP alloys: How many H atoms are required for each N atom?”, I. A. Buyanova, W. M. Chen, M. Izadifard, S. J. Pearton, C. Bihler, M. S. Brandt, Y. G. Hong, and C. W. TuSecondary ion mass spectrometry and photoluminescence are employed to evaluate the origin and efficiency of hydrogen passivation of nitrogen in GaNAs and GaNP. The hydrogen profiles are found to closely follow the N distributions, providing unambiguous evidence for their preferential binding as the... (Read more)

Ruffieux, P. Gröning, and O. GröningThe authors report on the generation of localized defects on single-walled carbon nanotubes by means of a hydrogen electron cyclotron resonance plasma. The defects have been investigated using scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) and show an apparent topographic height in the STM of 1–3 ... (Read more)

FazzioUsing ab initio total energy density-functional theory calculations, we investigated the electronic, structural, and magnetic properties of manganese-doped germanium nanowires. The nanowires have been constructed along the [110] direction and the dangling bonds on the surface have been... (Read more)

PanRealistic carbon nanotubes (CNTs) contain various structural defects by which the physical and chemical properties of the CNTs are significantly influenced. So, lowering the defect densities is of importance for the potential application of the CNTs. By performing tight-binding molecular dynamics... (Read more)

Dürr,, and U. HöferThe rearrangement of silicon dangling bonds induced by pulsed laser heating of monohydride-covered Si(001) surfaces has been studied by means of scanning tunneling microscopy (STM). The initial configurations, which were created by laser-induced thermal desorption, consist of isolated pairs of... (Read more)

KortshagenThe effect of HF etching of the silicon oxide shell covering the surface of Si nanocrystals (NCs) on the subsequent room-temperature atmospheric oxidation of Si-NCs has been investigated by means of photoluminescence measurements, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and electron paramagnetic...

GaliSilicon carbide nanotubes have a great potential for biological applications. It is of interest to explore the electronic properties of these nanotubes, and how those are modified in the presence of impurities. Hydrogen is a common impurity that can appear during the growth of silicon carbide... (Read more)
