This paper is devoted to the mixed initial-boundary value problem for the semiconductor equations. Using Stampacchia recurrence method, we prove that the solutions areglobally bounded and positive.

However, less work has been reported on piezo-modulated interface engineering in all-oxide systems. In this paper, an enhanced photoresponse of an all-oxide Cu2O/ZnO heterojunction was obtained by taking advantage of the piezotronic effect. The illumination density-dependent piezoelectric modulation ability was also comprehensively investigated. An 18.6% enhancement of photoresponse was achieved when applying a a-0.88% compressive strain. Comparative experiments confirmed that this enhancement could be interpreted in terms of the band modification induced by interfacial piezoelectric polarization. The positive piezopotential generated at the ZnO side produces an increase in space charge region in Cu2O, thus providing an extra driving force to separate the excitons more efficiently under illumination. Our research provides a promising method to boost the performance of optoelectronics without altering the interface structure and could be extended to other metal oxide devices.展开更多

Considerable richness in the nanocrystal shape and orientation with respect to the substrate lattice is observed. The average NCQD-substrate separation is found to be significantly smaller than the length of the ligands on the NCQDs. Complementary photoluminescence measurements show that light emission from PbS NCQDs on silicon is effectively quenched which we attribute to intrinsic mechanisms of energy and charge transfer from PbS NCQDs to Si.展开更多

Integration of TiO2 with another semiconductor with a band gap of -1.0 eV would be ideal to harvest both ultraviolet and visible-near infrared light for photocatalysis; however, most narrow-bandgap semiconductors have straddling band structure alignments with TiO2, constituting an obstacle to forming the Z-scheme for photocatalytic hydrogen production. In this communication, we demonstrate Ag2S as a model system where the energy band upshift of the narrow-bandgap semiconductor that shares an interface with a metal can overcome this limitation. To fabricate the design, we developed a unique approach to synthesize Ag2S-Ag-TiO2 hybrid structures. The obtained ternary hybrid structures exhibited dramatically enhanced performance in photocatalytic hydrogen pro- duction under full-spectrum light illumination. The activities were significantly higher than the sum of those of Ag2S-Ag-TiO2 structures under λ〈 400 nm and λ 〉 400 nm irradiation as well as those of their counterparts under any light illumination conditions.展开更多
