Metal/superconductor/semiconductor (Ag/Hg-1212/CdSe) hetero-nanostructures have been fabricated using pulse-electrodeposition
technique and are characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), full-width at half-maximum (FWHM) and scanning electron microscopy
(SEM) studies. The junction capacitance of Ag/Hg-1212, Hg-1212/CdSe and Ag/Hg-1212/CdSe heterojunctions is measured in dark
and under laser irradiation at room temperature. The nature of the junction formed and built-in-junction potentials were determined.
The increase in carrier concentration across the junction due to photo-irradiation has been observed. 相似文献

One of the innovative technological directions for the high-temperature superconductors has been persued by fabricating the
heteroepitaxial multilayer structures such as superconductor-semiconductor heterostructures. In the present investigation,
metal/superconductor/semiconductor (Ag/Tl-2223/CdSe) hetero-nanostructures have successfully been fabricated using dc electrodeposition
technique and were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), full-width at half-maximum (FWHM) and scanning electron microscopy
(SEM) studies. The measurement of junction capacitance as a function of biasing voltage was used for the estimation of junction
built-in-potential (V
D) and to study the charge distribution in a heterojunction. The Mott-Schottky plots were measured for each junction in dark
and under the photo-irradiation. The effect of laser irradiation on C-V characteristics of hetero-nanostructure has been studied. 相似文献

A weak scattering model was proposed for the ultrasonic frequency-dependent backscatter in dense bovine cancellous bone, using two autocorrelation functions to describe the medium: one with discrete homogeneities (spherical distribution of equal spheres) and another, which considers tissue as an inhomogeneous continuum (densely populated medium). The inverse problem to estimate trabecular thickness of bone tissue has been addressed. A combination of the two autocorrelation functions was required to closely approximate the backscatter from bovine bone with various microarchitecture, given that the shape of trabeculae ranges from a rodlike to a platelike shape. Because of the large variation in trabecular thickness, both at an intraspecimen and an interspecimen level, thickness distributions for individual trabeculae for each bone specimen were obtained, and dominant trabecular sizes were determined. Comparison of backscatter measurements to theoretical predictions indicated that there were more than one dominant trabecular sizes that scatter sound for most specimens. Linear regression, performed between dominant trabecular thickness and estimated correlation length, showed significant linear correlation (R(2)=0.81). Attenuation due to scattering by a continuous distribution of scatterers was predicted to be linear over a frequency range from 0.3 to 0.9 MHz, suggesting a possibility that scattering may be a significant source of attenuation. 相似文献

An experimental model which can simulate physical changes that occur during aging was developed in order to evaluate the effects of change of mineral content and microstructure on ultrasonic properties of bovine cancellous bone. Timed immersion in hydrochloric acid was used to selectively alter the mineral content. Scanning electron microscopy and histological staining of the acid-treated trabeculae demonstrated a heterogeneous structure consisting of a mineralized core and a demineralized layer. The presence of organic matrix contributed very little to normalized broadband ultrasound attenuation (nBUA) and speed of sound. All three ultrasonic parameters, speed of sound, nBUA and backscatter coefficient, were sensitive to changes in apparent density of bovine cancellous bone. A two-component model utilizing a combination of two autocorrelation functions (a densely populated model and a spherical distribution) was used to approximate the backscatter coefficient. The predicted attenuation due to scattering constituted a significant part of the measured total attenuation (due to both scattering and absorption mechanisms) for bovine cancellous bone. Linear regression, performed between trabecular thickness values and estimated from the model correlation lengths, showed significant linear correlation, with R(2)=0.81 before and R(2)=0.80 after demineralization. The accuracy of estimation was found to increase with trabecular thickness. 相似文献

The DNA-Transistor is a device designed to control the translocation of single-stranded DNA through a solid-state nanopore. Functionality of the device is enabled by three electrodes exposed to the DNA-containing electrolyte solution within the pore and the application of a dynamic electrostatic potential well between the electrodes to temporarily trap a DNA molecule. Optimizing the surface chemistry and electrochemical behavior of the device is a necessary (but by no means sufficient) step toward the development of a functional device. In particular, effects to be eliminated are (i) electrochemically induced surface alteration through corrosion or reduction of the electrode surface and (ii) formation of hydrogen or oxygen bubbles inside the pore through water decomposition. Even though our motivation is to solve problems encountered in DNA transistor technology, in this paper we report on generic surface chemistry results. We investigated a variety of electrode-electrolyte-solvent systems with respect to their capability of suppressing water decomposition and maintaining surface integrity. We employed cyclic voltammetry and long-term amperometry as electrochemical test schemes, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, atomic force microscopy, and scanning, as well as transmission electron microscopy as analytical tools. Characterized electrode materials include thin films of Ru, Pt, nonstoichiometric TiN, and nonstoichiometric TiN carrying a custom-developed titanium oxide layer, as well as custom-oxidized nonstoichiometric TiN coated with a monolayer of hexadecylphosphonic acid (HDPA). We used distilled water as well as aqueous solutions of poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG-300) and glycerol as solvents. One millimolar KCl was employed as electrolyte in all solutions. Our results show that the HDPA-coated custom-developed titanium oxide layer effectively passivates the underlying TiN layer, eliminating any surface alterations through corrosion or reduction within a voltage window from -2 V to +2 V. Furthermore, we demonstrated that, by coating the custom-oxidized TiN samples with HDPA and increasing the concentration of PEG-300 or glycerol in aqueous 1 mM KCl solutions, water decomposition was suppressed within the same voltage window. Water dissociation was not detected when combining custom-oxidized HDPA-coated TiN electrodes with an aqueous 1 mM KCl-glycerol solution at a glycerol concentration of at least 90%. These results are applicable to any system that requires nanoelectrodes placed in aqueous solution at voltages that can activate electrochemical processes. 相似文献
