Spectral measurements of illumination-induced displacement currents related to trapping of charge carriers optically excited in semiconductor electrodes are shown to deliver information regarding energy onsets of electron transitions at the interface. Presented examples include determination of the conduction band offset at the GaN/Al2O3 interface and determination of charge carrier excitation spectra of two-dimensional (2D) semiconductors MoS2 and WS2 at the interface with insulating SiO2.
We present the proof of concept of the first non-volatile bistable fiber optic switch combining integrated optics and electrowetting-actuated microfluidics. Design and realization of both EWOD and photonic layer are presented and successful switching of a 2x4 network is demonstrated.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
