Solar cells made of polycrystalline thin-films can outperform their single-crystalline counterparts despite the presence of grain boundaries (GBs). To unveil the influence of GBs, high spatial resolution characterization techniques are needed to …
Cerium dioxide nanocubes and truncated octahedra were reduced and oxidized in the scanning transmission electron microscope. The reduction process was stimulated by the electron beam and oxidation was supported by background gases in the microscope …
The growth of carbon nanotube (CNT) using cobalt silicide as a catalyst and source/drain electrode is proposed to explore its feasibility for fabricating integrated-circuit process compatible, self-aligned CNT field-effect transistors (CNTFET). The …
