Electrical characterization of molybdenum oxide lamellar crystals irradiated with UV light and proton beams

Engineering strain and conductivity of MoO3 by ion implantation

“…Furthermore, high electron mobilities were reported for partially reduced MoO3 [60]. Such conductivity increase is for example observed in our samples upon annealing in vacuum [20]. Similar to our results, Hanson et al [17] observed an exponential decay in resistance, of about four orders of magnitude, as a function of the dose in MoO3 nanosheets with different thicknesses when irradiated with an electron beam.…”

“…It is important to mention, that the gain in conductivity is more stable than what was observed for annealing treatment in vacuum of the same material [20]. For example, after 7 days of exposure to air, the conductance of an annealed sample decreases to only 1.3% of its initial value, thus approaching the limits of the equipment.…”

“…MoO3 lamellar crystals were grown by an evaporation-solidification method described in detail in references [15,20]. A disc of compacted Mo powder with 7 mm diameter and 2 mm thickness was placed at the center of a horizontal tube furnace, at a temperature of 750 ºC during 10 h in an air flow of 2 l/min using compressed air.…”

In Situ Characterization and Modification of β‐Ga2O3 Flakes Using an Ion Micro‐Probe

“…[40] Additionally, as in the case of other oxides like ZnO and MoO 3 , strong persistent currents may also be associated with molecular desorption and adsorption at the surface, a dynamic process which can also induce a depletion region. [41][42][43]…”

Crystal mosaicity determined by a novel layer deconvolution Williamson–Hall method

“…-molybdenum trioxide samples were grown by an evaporation-solidification method according to the procedure described in ref. 64 . The thickness of the as-grown crystals usually varies between 2 and 4µm, with typical lateral dimensions of about 2×5 mm 2 .…”
