Direct electron injection into an oxide insulator using a cathode buffer layer

Carrier injection from a metallic electrode into an oxide insulator component is made difficult by the large energy level offset between the two. Here, the authors show that an intermediary zinc-oxide layer enables an Ohmic electrical contact between a metal and an oxide insulator layer.

Experimental observation of localized interfacial phonon modes

Conventional theories for interfacial thermal transport are derived from bulk phonon properties. Here, the authors report experimental observation of interfacial phonon modes localized at interfaces, changing how interfacial thermal transport should be understood.

Ballistic supercavitating nanoparticles driven by single Gaussian beam optical pushing and pulling forces

Control of small particles in fluid can have a range of applications. The authors explore a phenomenon that allows an extremely low friction environment around a nanoparticle, demonstrating high-speed nanoparticles driven by optical forces in both directions of an optical beam.

Thermal conductance across harmonic-matched epitaxial Al-sapphire heterointerfaces

The mechanism of thermal transport at solid interfaces depends on many parameters in particular the quality of the interface. Here, the authors compare experimental and calculated thermal boundary conductance across high-quality harmonic-matched epitaxial Al-sapphire interfaces and find that elastic phonon processes dominate the ultra-clean interfaces.
