Oxide heterostructures based on SrTiO3 have emerged as a rich platform for exploring physical phenomena, most notably conductivity at interfaces between insulators. In this study, we investigate the electronic properties of an oxide-semiconductor heterostructure—SrTiO3 films grown epitaxially on Si(001). The lattice mismatch induces epitaxial strain, breaking the cubic symmetry of SrTiO3 and resulting in tetragonal distortion. Magnetotransport measurements reveal that the temperature and magnetic field dependence of the conductivity are dominated by two-dimensional quantum effects, weak localization, and electron-electron interactions. The low-temperature electronic properties indicate quantum confinement, strong electron correlations, exchange interactions, and Zeeman spin splitting. These findings underscore the potential of the SrTiO3/Si heterostructure for designing oxide-based quantum devices.

We successfully fabricated silicon-on-insulator (SOI) photonic crystal (PhC) slabs in which electromagnetic topological band gaps and edge modes were materialized for symmetric transverse-electric-like modes. Because the structure of our specimens can be regarded as symmetric about the horizontal middle plane of the PhC slab, their symmetric and antisymmetric eigenmodes were rigorously separated, so we could achieve genuine photonic band gaps for the former. We fabricated those specimens by electron beam lithography of the top Si layer of SOI wafers and successive plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition of a SiO2 capping layer. We confirmed the complete common band gap of topologically trivial and nontrivial PhCs and the topological edge modes on the boundary between them by angle-resolved reflection spectroscopy in the mid-infrared range. This is an observation of the common band gap and edge modes that materialized in symmetric PhC slabs without a membrane structure, that is, without the etching of a sacrificial layer under the PhC to increase the refractive-index contrast and the width of the common band gap.

Lead zirconate titanate (PZT) is widely used in energy harvesting because of its excellent material properties. However, as the material contains lead, there are significant environmental concerns with its production and use. Flexoelectricity refers to the coupling between strain gradient and electric polarization that exists, in principle, in all dielectric materials and would allow for energy harvesting without using piezoelectric materials. However, the effect is very weak in most materials. Promisingly, it has recently been shown that space charge polarized materials (i.e., semiconducting materials with insulating barrier layers) can exhibit enhanced flexoelectricity. This space charge induced flexoelectric effect opens up the possibility of a non-toxic replacement for PZT in energy harvesting applications. In this paper we investigate the use of doped silicon with hafnium oxide insulating layers as flexoelectric transducers that could replace PZT in many applications including energy harvesting. Specifically, we experimentally demonstrate flexoelectricity in a bending beam and show an effective flexoelectric coefficient of 4.9 μC/m. Finally, we develop and demonstrate a finite element model for flexoelectricity.

Strong multiparticle interactions at room temperature (RT) lead to broadened homogeneous exciton linewidths in 2D semiconductors, degrading the quality of excitonic mode and emission. By coupling a Mie resonator with monolayer WS 2 , we achieve narrowed linewidths at RT, approaching the theoretical limit at 0 Kelvin.
