Social network media exposure was associated with eating pathology in this Fijian study sample, independent of direct media exposure and other cultural exposures. Findings warrant further investigation of its health impact in other populations.
This work reports on the formation of high-density (~1013–1014 cm−2) two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) in ZnO-based heterostructures, grown by a dual ion beam sputtering system. We probe 2DEG in bilayer MgZnO/ZnO and capped ZnO/MgZnO/ZnO heterostructures utilizing MgZnO barrier layers with varying thickness and Mg content. The effect of the ZnO cap layer thickness on the ZnO/MgZnO/ZnO heterostructure is also studied. Hall measurements demonstrate that the addition of a 5 nm ZnO cap layer results in an enhancement of the 2DEG density by about 1.5 times compared to 1.11 1014 cm−2 for the uncapped bilayer heterostructure with the same 30 nm barrier thickness and 30 at.% Mg composition in the barrier layer. From the low-temperature Hall measurement, the sheet carrier concentration and mobility are both found to be independent of the temperature. The capacitance–voltage measurement suggests a carrier density of ~1020 cm−3, confined in 2DEG at the MgZnO/ZnO heterointerface. The results presented are significant for the optimization of 2DEG for the eventual realization of cost-effective and large-area MgZnO/ZnO-based high-electron-mobility transistors.
Here, we present an analytical modeling of electron mobility in two dimensional electron gas (2DEG)-yielding MgZnO/ZnO heterostructures, to ascertain dominant scattering mechanisms and physical parameters responsible for one-order lower value of electron mobility in sputtering-grown heterostructure as compared to that in molecular beam epitaxy-grown heterostructure. This work extensively probes all scattering components and their physical parameters, such as dislocation density, impurity density, mole fraction, 2DEG density, correlation length and lateral size, for their respective effects on electron mobility of sputtered heterostructure. The results suggest that dislocation density and alloy disorder scattering are the most dominant sources responsible for reduced electron mobility. This work is extremely crucial for achieving high electron mobility by optimizing the material growth parameters to attain low dislocation density, impurity density and interface roughness, for the development of low-cost ZnO-based heterostructure field effect transistors.
