A solidly mounted tunable barium strontium GaN/Sapphire substrate using a metalorganic solution deposition (MOSD) technique. An acoustic Bragg reflector was first formed on the GaN/sapphire substrate consisting of alternating layers of silicon dioxide and tantalum oxide deposited using a-spin on technique. Lower and upper electrodes were fabricated using sputter deposited platinum. The resonant frequency of the resonator could be tuned from 5.17 GHz to 5.20 GHz by applying a voltage of 8 V, resulting in tunability of about 0.6%. The quality factor of the resonator was found to depend on the applied voltage, with a maximum quality factor of 216 observed for an applied bias voltage of 8 V. The effective electromechanical coupling coefficient (kt 2 ) of the resonator was found to be 13.1% at 8 V.

We investigate dipolar donor materials mixed with a C70 acceptor in an organic photovoltaic (OPV) cell. Dipolar donors that have donor-acceptor-acceptor (d-a-a′) structure result in high conductivity pathways due to close coupling between neighboring molecules in the mixed films. We analyze the charge transfer properties of the dipolar donor:C70 mixtures and corresponding neat donors using a combination of time-resolved electroluminescence from intermolecular polaron pair states and conductive tip atomic force microscopy, from which we infer that dimers of the d-a-a′ donors tend to form a continuous network of nanocrystalline clusters within the blends. Additional insights are provided by quantum-mechanical calculations of hole transfer coupling and hopping rates between donor molecules using nearest-neighbor donor packing motifs taken from crystal structural data. The approximation using only nearest-neighbor interactions leads to good agreement between donor hole hopping rates and the conductive properties of the donor:C70 blends. This represents a significant simplification from requiring details of the nano- and mesoscale morphologies of thin films to estimate their electronic characteristics. Using these dipolar donors, we obtain a maximum power conversion efficiency of 9.6±0.5% under 1 sun, AM1.5G simulated illumination for an OPV comprised of an active layer containing a dipolar donor mixed with C70.

This paper presents the design and fabrication of a switchable band pass filter based on barium strontium titanate (Ba 0.7 Sr 0.3 TiO 3 ) thin film materials. This filter is designed and fabricated as a solidly mounted resonator (SMR) using spin-on metal organic solution decomposition. It consists of six film bulk acoustic resonators (FBARs), two series and four shunt. Without voltage biasing, there is no frequency switching and the filter has shown capacitive response of return loss S11 at -3 dB and insertion loss of -21 dB. By applying 10.8 dc voltage to the six resonators, the filter has exhibited band pass response at 4.67 GHz with 150 MHz band width and insertion loss of 3.8 dB and shown an agreement between the simulation and measurement results.

Direct evidence is provided for the transition from surface conduction (SC) to electro-osmotic flow (EOF) above a critical channel depth (d) of a nanofluidic device. The dependence of the overlimiting conductance (OLC) on d is consistent with theoretical predictions, scaling as d−1 for SC and d4/5 for EOF with a minimum around d=8 μm. The propagation of transient deionization shocks is also visualized, revealing complex patterns of EOF vortices and unstable convection with increasing d. This unified picture of surface-driven OLC can guide further advances in electrokinetic theory, as well as engineering applications of ion concentration polarization in microfluidics and porous media.

Pulsed Laser Deposition (PLD) using a femtosecond laser has improved the surface roughness, quality of thin films and deposition time significantly over nanosecond lasers. However characterizing these thin films especially the composition using Energy Dispersive X-ray Spectroscopy (EDS) is challenging. We report the successful growth and characterization of thin films of giant magnetocaloric Gd 5 Si 1.3 Ge 2.7 using femtosecond PLD. We also report that annealing of Gd 5 Si 1.3 Ge 2.7 thin film at 1000 K showed disappearance of particles on the film and the phase transition in the magnetic measurements.
