The number of J/ψ events collected with the BES detector at the BEPC from June 12 to July 28, 2009 is determined to be (225.3±2.8)×10 6 using J/ψ →inclusive events, where the uncertainty is the systematic error and the statistical one is negligible.
We investigate the effect of various parameters on the room–temperature interband tunneling characteristics of molecular beam epitaxy grown, intrinsically n-type In(Ga)As nanowires (NWs) on p-type silicon (Si) substrate using conductive atomic force microscopy. Large interband tunnel currents (>40 kA/cm2) and reduced breakdown voltages are obtained by increasing the p-type substrate doping level to >1 × 1019 cm−3. Current mapping under forward bias reveals a bimodal distribution of NW/Si hetero-junction tunnel diodes exhibiting either negative differential resistance (NDR, Esaki diode) or high excess currents (without NDR). By downscaling the NW diameter from ∼90 nm to ∼25 nm, peak-to-valley current ratios in NDR-type diodes increase and saturate with maximum values of ∼3. Increasing Ga content (xGa up to ∼0.1) in In–rich ternary InGaAs NWs preserves the NDR behavior, while the peak current shifts to lower voltages due to reduced Fermi energy in InGaAs. Band profile calculations were performed to further support these findings.
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.
