Making BaZrS3 Chalcogenide Perovskite Thin Films by Molecular Beam Epitaxy
By Technical Paper Link - 13 Nov, 2021 - Comments: 0

Abstract: We demonstrate the making of BaZrS3 thin films by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE). BaZrS3 forms in the orthorhombic distorted-perovskite structure with corner-sharing ZrS6 octahedra. The single-step MBE process results in films smooth on the atomic scale, with near-perfect BaZrS3 stoichiometry and an atomically-sharp interface with the LaAlO3 substrate. The films grow epitaxially via tw... » read more

A graph placement methodology for fast chip design
By Technical Paper Link - 09 Nov, 2021 - Comments: 0

Abstract "Chip floorplanning is the engineering task of designing the physical layout of a computer chip. Despite five decades of research1, chip floorplanning has defied automation, requiring months of intense effort by physical design engineers to produce manufacturable layouts. Here we present a deep reinforcement learning approach to chip floorplanning. In under six hours, our method autom... » read more

Sputtered transparent electrodes for optoelectronic devices: Induced damage and mitigation strategies
By Technical Paper Link - 03 Nov, 2021 - Comments: 0

Abstract: Summary "Transparent electrodes and metal contacts deposited by magnetron sputtering find applications in numerous state-of-the-art optoelectronic devices, such as solar cells and light-emitting diodes. However, the deposition of such thin films may damage underlying sensitive device layers due to plasma emission and particle impact. Inserting a buffer layer to shield against such da... » read more

Substitutional synthesis of sub-nanometer InGaN/GaN quantum wells with high indium content
By Technical Paper Link - 03 Nov, 2021 - Comments: 0

Abstract "InGaN/GaN quantum wells (QWs) with sub-nanometer thickness can be employed in short-period superlattices for bandgap engineering of efficient optoelectronic devices, as well as for exploiting topological insulator behavior in III-nitride semiconductors. However, it had been argued that the highest indium content in such ultra-thin QWs is kinetically limited to a maximum of 33%, narro... » read more

Energy-efficient memcapacitor devices for neuromorphic computing
By Technical Paper Link - 03 Nov, 2021 - Comments: 0

Abstract Data-intensive computing operations, such as training neural networks, are essential for applications in artificial intelligence but are energy intensive. One solution is to develop specialized hardware onto which neural networks can be directly mapped, and arrays of memristive devices can, for example, be trained to enable parallel multiply–accumulate operations. Here we show that ... » read more
