This edition is the collection of selected peer-reviewed extended papers abstracts of which were presented at the 13th European Conference on Silicon Carbide and Related Materials (ECSCRM 2020-2021), held in Tours, France, in October 2021. During the conference, held for the first time in hybrid mode due to the COVID-19 pandemic, researchers discussed issues in the field of wide bandgap semiconductors, focusing on silicon carbide and related materials. Presented articles cover a wide range of topics divided into four major sections: Material growth and wafer manufacturing; Characterization, modelling and defect engineering; Processing; Power devices and applications. The contributors are worldwide academics and industrialists.
The 72nd volume of the "Journal of Nano Research" has been collected from the peer-reviewed articles reflecting the practical research results in the synthesis and properties analysis of nanomaterials and nanostructures for various cases of industrial applications. The research results will find practical use in micro- and optoelectronics, chemical production, technologies of membrane water desalination, and water treatment by the photocatalytic degradation of pollutants, intensification of plant growth, and packaging of agricultural products.
This issue from the topic series “Corrosion” contains articles published by Trans Tech Publications in 2017 - 2020. The volume covers many aspects of the corrosive behaviour of metallic biomaterials - from corrosion resistance studies to biocompatible coatings. We hope this collection will be useful and interesting to a broad audience of researchers and engineers from the area of development and research properties of metallic biomaterials and practitioners who utilize implantable and non-implantable devices.
This volume is focused on the materials and devices for solar-to-chemical energy conversion. The introductory paper, by Alim and Bak, considers the basic concepts of the light-induced water oxidation by oxide semiconductors. This paper is concentrated on the photoreactivity of metal oxides, such as TiO2, with water and the related charge transfer during partial and total oxidation. The second paper of Yang et al provides an overview on the performance of TiO2 as photoanode in photoelectrochemical water oxidation. The paper of Nasir et al considers application of BiVO4 as photoelectrode for the generation of solar hydrogen fuel using water as the raw material. The work of Pastuovic et al is a treatise on the application of accelerator-based nuclear techniques in the characterisation of oxide semiconductors for solar energy conversion. This volume is addressed to those interested in the progress of research in oxide materials for solar energy conversion.
Volume is indexed by Thomson Reuters CPCI-S (WoS).
The papers contained herein cover the most important and timely issues in the field of “Gettering and Defect Engineering in Semiconductor Technology”, ranging from the theoretical analysis of defect problems to practical engineering solutions, with the emphasis on Si-based materials. Apart from the traditional topics of defect and materials engineering, characterization, modeling and simulation, and the co-integration of various material classes, topics such as materials for solar cells and photonics are discussed. Defects in graphene and in nanocrystals and nanowires are also treated, making this a very up-to-date survey of the field.
