The proximity effect in semiconductor-superconductor nanowires is expected to generate an
induced gap in the semiconductor. The magnitude of this induced gap, together with the …

Cycling stability of the photochromic effect in rare-earth oxyhydride thin films is of great
importance for long-term applications such as smart windows. However, an increasingly …

Photochromic coatings are attractive materials for achieving dynamic transmittance control
in glazing. However, state-of-the-art photochromic materials are either not durable enough …

To develop an understanding of the photochromic effect in rare-earth metal oxyhydride thin
films (REH3–2 x O x, here RE= Y), we explore the aliovalent do** of the RE cation. We …

At ambient conditions, rare‐earth oxyhydride thin films show reversible photochromism and
photoconductivity, while their mechanism and relation are still unclear. In this work, this …

We present in-situ studies of H loss from YHO films using ion beam analysis and its effect on
the photochromic properties. The film evaporates loosely bound H under exposure to a …

Hydrogen, the smallest and lightest element, readily permeates a variety of materials and
modulates their physical properties. Identification of the hydrogen lattice location and its …

The structural properties of photochromic yttrium oxyhydride powder in its transparent state
were examined using x-ray diffraction and temperature-dependent extended x-ray …

Develo** high‐efficiency and environmentally‐friendly thermoelectric materials has been
a significant challenge. Conventional thermometric materials consist of heavy (toxic) …

We investigate the effective oxidation state and local environment of yttrium in photochromic
YHO thin film structures produced by e-beam evaporation, along with their chemical …
