Summary: The study found that n-type doped InSb wafers can exhibit variable range hopping transport mechanism induced by Ga+ ion beam damage, with high damage levels showing three-dimensional behavior and lower doses displaying characteristics of Mott phonon-assisted VRH. Controlling the level of damage can alter the transport properties of the devices, allowing for the study of coherent transport processes in the hopping regime.

Summary: We investigated the crystal structure, dielectric, and conductivity properties of Gd doped Na0.5Bi0.5TiO3 ceramics. The samples exhibited rhombohedral crystal structures with the R3c space group. The Raman modes broadened with an increase in Gd percentage. The temperature-dependent dielectric data showed an increase in maximum dielectric permittivity with Gd content. The conductivity was examined using Arrhenius's equation and Mott's variable-range hopping mechanism.

Summary: The electrical transport properties of zirconium oxynitride films are investigated, and a transition from positive to negative magnetoresistance is observed in the variable-range hopping transport regime with decreasing temperature. The positive magnetoresistance is caused by the shrinkage effect of electronic wavefunctions, while the negative magnetoresistance, independent of magnetic field orientations, can be attributed to Zeeman splitting and/or spin-flip hopping effect of localized states. Further experimental studies are required to elucidate the exact transition mechanism.

Summary: This review examines numerical simulations of variable-range hopping in 2D and 3D systems with localized states due to disorder, considering both interacting and noninteracting systems. It discusses the main theories for variable-range hopping, such as Mott's and Efros and Shkolvskii's, and presents numerical techniques used for this problem. The focus is on the proportionality constant's impact on characteristic temperatures in different conduction laws and the form of the pre-exponential factor.

Summary: This study analyzed samples obtained by reducing Rutile TiO2 with Mg to determine the suboxide phases and dominant structural phase in each sample. The results showed that increasing the heat treatment temperature or the amount of reducing agent led to an increase in the amount of suboxide phases and TiO being the main phase in samples with low electrical resistivity. The hopping conduction mechanism was investigated and characterized, showing a transition from nearest neighbor hopping to Mott-variable range hopping conduction regimes at around 65 K. The Efros-Shklovskii VRH conduction process was observed at low temperatures below 18 K. The obtained hopping parameters indicated that the low resistivity samples were close to the metal-insulator transition. In samples with high electrical resistivity, the hopping conduction relations did not fit the resistivity-temperature curves, possibly due to resistive switching behavior and changes in conductivity properties depicted in the current-voltage curve.

Summary: The study investigated the electrical transport properties of In1-xPbxTe compounds, finding that small Pb doping induces charge localization and leads to variable range hopping transport. The transition from Mott to Efros-Shklovskii type VRH transport was observed with decreasing temperature, along with unconventional negative MR behavior in Pb-doped compounds. The results suggest strong electron-electron Coulomb interactions and significant changes in density of states in these compounds.

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.

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.

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.

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: 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.

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.
