Computational insights into phase equilibria between wide-gap semiconductors and contact materials
Cheng-Wei Lee, Andriy Zakutayev, Vladan Stevanović
Novel wide-band-gap semiconductors are needed for next-generation power electronic but there is a gap between a promising material and a functional device. Finding stable contacts…
Mechanistically-guided materials chemistry: synthesis of new ternary nitrides, CaZrN and CaHfN
Christopher L. Rom, Andrew Novick, Matthew J. McDermott +13
Recent computational studies have predicted many new ternary nitrides, revealing synthetic opportunities in this underexplored phase space. However, synthesizing new ternary nitrid…
Discovery of the Zintl-phosphide BaCdP as a long carrier lifetime and stable solar absorber
Zhenkun Yuan, Diana Dahliah, Muhammad Rubaiat Hasan +17
Thin-film photovoltaics offers a path to significantly decarbonize our energy production. Unfortunately, current materials commercialized or under development as thin-film solar ce…
Bulk and film synthesis pathways to ternary magnesium tungsten nitrides
Christopher L. Rom, Rebecca W. Smaha, Callan A. Knebel +4
Bulk solid state synthesis of nitride materials usually leads to thermodynamically stable, cation-ordered crystal structures, whereas thin film synthesis tends to favor disordered,…
Autonomous sputter synthesis of thin film nitrides with composition controlled by Bayesian optimization of optical plasma emission
Davi M. Febba, Kevin R. Talley, Kendal Johnson +5
Autonomous experimentation has emerged as an efficient approach to accelerate the pace of materials discovery. Although instruments for autonomous synthesis have become popular in…
Structural and Optoelectronic Properties of Thin Film LaWN
Rebecca W. Smaha, John S. Mangum, Ian A. Leahy +9
Nitride perovskites are an emerging class of materials that have been predicted to display a range of interesting physics and functional properties, but they are under-explored due…
Ultrathin Stable Ohmic Contacts for High-Temperature Operation of -GaO Devices
William A. Callahan, Edwin Supple, David Ginley +4
Beta gallium oxide (-GaO) shows significant promise in the high-temperature, high-power, and sensing electronics applications. However, long-term stable metallization la…
Anomalously Abrupt Switching of Ferroelectric Wurtzites
Keisuke Yazawa, John Hayden, Jon-Paul Maria +4
Ferroelectric polarization switching is one common example of a process that occurs via nucleation and growth, and understanding switching kinetics is crucial for applications such…
