The electrical properties of n-type titanium dioxide thin films deposited by magnetron-sputtering method have been investigated by temperature-dependent conductivity. We observed that the temperature dependence of the electrical conductivity of titanium dioxide films exhibits a crossover from T(-1/4) to T(-1/2) dependence in the temperature range between 80 and 110 K. Characteristic parameters describing conductivity, such as the characteristic temperature (T(0)). hopping distance (R(hop)), average hopping energy (Delta(hop)), Coulomb gap (Delta(C)), localization length (xi) and density of states (N(E(F))), were determined, and their values were discussed within the models describing conductivity in TiO(2) thin films.

Effect of magnesium content and growth temperature on structural and optical properties of USCVD-grown MgZnO films

E. Kutlu-Narin, P. Narin, A. Yildiz, S. B. Lisesivdin

Summary: The study looked at the effects of magnesium content and growth temperature on the optical and structural properties of magnesium zinc oxide films, finding a linear correlation between magnesium mole fraction and magnesium content in the liquid solution. The peak of the (0002) diffraction for the grown samples shifted to higher angles and became stronger with increasing magnesium content in the liquid solution. Both growth temperature and magnesium content in the liquid solution are crucial parameters in controlling the magnesium mole fraction of the samples.

Carminic acid extracted from cochineal insect as photosensitizer for dye-sensitized solar cells

Yavuz Kocak, Abdullah Yildiz

Summary: Utilizing carminic acid as a photosensitizer in dye-sensitized solar cells showed promising results in terms of light absorption and surface anchoring, but the suppression of electron recombination was found to be inadequate. Quantum chemical calculations confirmed the compatibility of carminic acid with the conduction band edge of TiO2, leading to improved photo-conversion efficiency compared to natural dye-based DSSCs under simulated solar light.

Summary: This study aimed to investigate the impact of mechanical stress induced by water molecule adsorption on the composition of crystalline phases in ZrO2 + 3 mol% Y2O3 nanoparticles. Three methods, neutron diffraction, Raman microspectroscopic scanning, and X-ray diffraction, were used to determine the phase transition. The study revealed the reversible phase-structural β -> α transformation and the presence of two different structural modifications in the nanoparticles under normal physical conditions. The findings suggested a possible connection between the physical mechanism of transformation and the electronic exchange between the surface layer material and the adsorption layer. Furthermore, the study demonstrated the potential of direct-acting hydroelectric converters based on nanoscale YSZ systems due to the reversible nature of the observed effect.

Konstantinova, Yulia Aleksiayenak

Summary: The dimensional effect of electric charge storage was determined for the hydrated ZrO2-nanoparticles system, with a density of up to 270 mu F/g. The study found that the localization of charge carriers occurs at the generalized heterophase boundary-nanoparticles surface. The mechanism of this effect involves the formation of localized electronic states in the nanoparticle material due to donor-acceptor interaction with the adsorption ionic atmosphere. This research is significant for modern nanoelectronics, microsystem technology, and printed electronics.

First principles calculations of electronic and optical properties of InSe nanosheets doped with noble metal atoms

P. Narin, J. M. All Abbas, E. Kutlu-Narin, S. B. Lisesivdin, E. Ozbay

Summary: Monolayer Indium Selenide (ML-InSe) was studied for its 4x4 supercell structure using ab initio calculations. The electronic and optical properties of ML-InSe were calculated for both pristine and substitutionally doped ML-InSe with Pd, Pt, Ag, and Au atoms. Substitutional doping was found to induce a spin-dependent electronic structure in ML-InSe, with flat energy bands near the Fermi level when doping elements were placed in In site. The PDOS calculations revealed the formation of flat bands of d orbitals of some noble metal atoms. The energetically favorable position for doping atoms was determined to be the Pt-In substitution atom based on formation energy calculations. Bond length, static dielectric constant (epsilon(0)), refractive index, and energy band gap were calculated for each studied structure. In the ML-InSe structure with Au-Se, epsilon(0) reached approximately 8.15. Substitutional doping was also found to induce peaks in the lower energy region of the imaginary part of the dielectric function, which may have significance for the optoelectronic properties of ML-InSe.

Summary: This study investigates the effect of changing the acetic acid (AA) ratio in the precursor solution on the growth and physical properties of MgZnO structures. The results show that the (0002) diffraction peak is dominant in MgZnO grown with 25% and 50% AA ratio. The surface density of growing MgZnO decreases with an increased AA ratio. The optical properties, including absorbance, transmittance, and band gap, have been examined for MgZnO samples with different AA ratios.

Deniz Bozoglu, Sahin Yakut, Kemal Ulutas, Deniz Deger

Summary: Thin film polyethylene oxide, produced by the thermal evaporation technique, exhibits structural and property differences compared to bulk polyethylene oxide. The dielectric constant of polyethylene oxide thin film is 10 times greater than that of bulk polyethylene oxide. There is consistency among dielectric constants, activation energies, and free volume fractions for both thin film and bulk samples. Polyethylene oxide thin film is observed to be more brittle than bulk polyethylene oxide.

Large-scale DFT calculations of multi-component glass systems (SiO2)0.70(Al2O3)0.13(XO)0.17 (X = Mg, Ca, Sr, Ba) : Accuracy of classical force fields

Atsushi Tanaka, Atsuki Saito, Takashi Murata, Ayako Nakata, Tsuyoshi Miyazaki

Summary: Although molecular dynamics (MD) simulation is a powerful tool for investigating the atomic-scale structures of complex materials, its reliable and accurate application to multi-component glass systems faces challenges due to limited force fields (FFs) and the complexity of chemical environments. This study demonstrates the feasibility of efficient and accurate large-scale density functional theory (DFT) calculations for multi-component glass systems. The evaluation of classical FFs based on the results of large-scale DFT calculations reveals low accuracy for non-bridging oxygen atoms, and differences in Si-O-Si angle distribution and electronic structure for X = Mg.

In situ XRD and Raman study of the phase transition in V2O5 xerogels

Petr Shvets, Ksenia Maksimova, Aleksandr Goikhman

Summary: In this study, vanadium oxide xerogel samples were successfully synthesized through a liquid phase reaction and the interaction of films with water. The samples were thoroughly analyzed using X-ray diffraction and Raman spectroscopy, revealing the existence of two distinct phases. It was also discovered that previous misinterpretations regarding the high-pressure polymorph structure were due to the formation of a high-temperature phase. These findings highlight the potential for further refining and expanding the current structural models of vanadium oxide xerogel in future research efforts.
