The present review takes a semiconductor physics perspective to summarize the state-of-the
art of In 2 O 3 in relation to applications. After discussing conventional and novel …

Introducing a few atoms of impurities or dopants in semiconductor nanocrystals can
drastically alter the existing properties or even introduce new properties. For example, mid …

The updated and enlarged new edition of this book provides an introduction to and an
overview of semiconductor optics from the IR through the visible to the UV. It includes …

This review article first presents a summary of current understanding of the magnetic
properties and intrinsic ferromagnetism of transition-metal (TM)-doped ZnO films, which are …

Dilute magnetic oxides are transparent, wide-bandgap materials that behave
ferromagnetically when doped with a few percent of a magnetic 3d cation. The magnetism …

The existence of high-temperature ferromagnetism in thin films and nanoparticles of oxides
containing small quantities of magnetic dopants remains controversial. Some regard these …

A new model is proposed for ferromagnetism associated with defects in the bulk or at the
surface of nanoparticles. The basic idea is that a narrow, structured local density of states N …

We review and critique the recent developments on multifunctional oxide materials, which
are gaining a good deal of interest. Recongnizing that this is a vast area, the focus of this …

The key scientific issues in the application and development of semiconductor
micro/nanodevices and optoelectronics components have driven scientists to investigate in …

Control of the spin degree of freedom of an electron has brought about a new era in spin-
based applications, particularly spin-based electronics, with the potential to outperform the …
