The paper reviews the interplay of Rashba/Dresselhaus spin splittings in various two‐
dimensional systems made of zinc‐blende III–V, wurtzite, and SiGe semiconductors. We …

The creation of large magnetic fields is a necessary component in many technologies,
ranging from magnetic resonance imaging, electric motors and generators, and magnetic …

The three volumes of this handbook treat the fundamentals, technology and nanotechnology
of nitride semiconductors with an extraordinary clarity and depth. They present all the …

Do** of nanocrystals is an important and very difficult task.“Self-purification” mechanisms
are often claimed to make this task even more difficult, as the distance a defect or impurity …

Gadolinium (Gd) doped zinc oxide (ZnO) nanoparticles (NPs) with hexagonal wurtzite
structure was synthesized via a co-precipitation method. The structural properties of …

As an important class of spintronic material, ferromagnetic oxide semiconductors are
characterized with both charge and spin degrees of freedom, but they often show weak …

We have performed density-functional theory calculations in conjunction with the climbing
image nudged elastic band method in order to study the self-diffusion of oxygen in zinc …

First-principle calculations of the electronic structure and magnetic interaction of GaN: Gd
have been performed within the generalized gradient approximation (GGA) of the density …

This paper reports an in-depth study on nanocrystalline Gd-doped ZnO thin films
synthesized using versatile pulsed spray pyrolysis method and exhibit room temperature …

We demonstrate a novel, one-step, catalyst-free method for the production of size-controlled
vertical highly conductive ZnO nanorod (NR) arrays with highly desirable characteristics by …
