Using tender X-rays with their substantially increased inelastic mean free scattering length of photoelectrons and using the classical three-electrode potentiostatic arrangement allows one to follow of the influence of the applied potentials on the semiconductor electrode energetics such as band bending and band edge shifts directly [2, 3]. The observed shifts in binding energy with respect to the applied potential have directly revealed rectifying junction behavior on semiconducting samples. Accumulation, depletion and Fermi level pinning were observed. Additionally, the non-linear response of the core level binding energies to changes in the applied electrode potential has revealed the influence of defect-derived electronic states on the Galvani potential across the complete cell.

Recently, we have demonstrated operational systems that involved stabilized semiconductor-liquid junctions [1]. The electrical and spectroscopic properties of the TiO2/Ni protection layer system have been investigated in contact with electrolyte solutions [2, 3, 4]. From the response of the photoelectron binding energies to variations in applied potential the energetics of the solid/electrolyte interface are elucidated. The degree of conductivity depended on the chemical state of the Ni on the TiO2 surface. The combinations of these techniques provide a powerful tool for the investigation of hybrid electrode/solution contacts.

Although electrocatalysts for the oxygen-evolution reaction derived from metallic Ir and Ni have mutually similar overpotentials in alkaline media, Si/a-TiO2/Ir interfaces exhibit higher overpotentials than Si/a-TiO2/Ni interfaces. The data allow formulation of full band energy diagrams for n-Si/a-TiO2/metal interfaces for M = Ni, Ir, or Au. Although both Ni and Ir produce band bending in a-TiO2 favoring hole conduction, only Ni creates multiple states within the a-TiO2 band gap at the a-TiO2/Ni interface, which produces a quasi-metallic interface at the a-TiO2/Ni junction. Au, however, produces a flat-band interface that limits hole conduction without any new band gap states.}, language = {en} } @misc{RudolphAchoucheKrausetal., author = {Rudolph, Matthias and Achouche, M. and Kraus, S. and Spitzbart, Th. and Kurpas, Paul and Rentner, D. and Brunner, F. and Richter, E. and Bergunde, T. and Heymann, Peter and Wolter, P. and Wittrich, H. and Weyers, M. and W{\"u}rfl, Joachim and Tr{\"a}nkle, G{\"u}nther}, title = {InGaP/GaAs Power HBTs for L-Band Applications}, language = {en} } @article{SchmeisserRichterPfitzneretal., author = {Schmeißer, Dieter and Richter, H. and Pfitzner, L. and Prasad, S.}, title = {E-MRS 1999 Spring Meeting, Strasbourg, June1-4,1999-Preface}, language = {en} } @misc{GnanapragasamRichterBrunneretal., author = {Gnanapragasam, S. and Richter, E. and Brunner, F. and Denker, A. and Lossy, R. and Mai, M. and Lenk, Friedrich and Opitz-Coutureau, J. and Pensl, G. and Schmidt, J. and Zeimer, U. and Wang, L. and Krishnan, B. and Weyers, M. and W{\"u}rfl, Joachim and Tr{\"a}nkle, G{\"u}nther}, title = {Irradiation effects on AlGaN HFET devices and GaN layers}, series = {Journal of Materials Science: Materials in Electronics}, volume = {19}, journal = {Journal of Materials Science: Materials in Electronics}, number = {1}, issn = {1573-482X}, doi = {10.1007/s10854-008-9589-1}, pages = {64 -- 67}, abstract = {AlGaN/GaN heterostructure field effect transistors (HFETs) were irradiated with protons as well as carbon, oxygen, iron and krypton ions of high (68 and 120 MeV) and low (2 MeV) energy with fluences in the range from 1x107 to 1x1013 cm-2. High energy irradiation with protons, carbon and oxygen produced no degradation in devices while krypton irradiation at the fluence of 1x1010 cm-2 resulted in a small reduction of 2\% in the transconductance. Similarly, for GaN samples irradiated with protons, carbon and oxygen at high energy no changes were seen by XRD, PL and Hall effect, while changes in lattice constant and a reduction in PL intensity were observed after irradiation with high energy krypton. Low energy irradiation with carbon and oxygen at a fluence of 5x1010 cm-2 results in small change in the device performance while remarkable changes in device characteristics are seen at a fluence of 1x1012 cm-2 for carbon, oxygen, iron and krypton irradiation. Similarly changes are also observed by XRD, PL and Hall effect for the thick GaN layer irradiated at the fluence of 1x1012 cm-2.

In particular, an approximate but very accurate scaling law is found for the minimum initial perturbation amplitude required for instability and for the corresponding perturbation wavelength at which it occurs.
