The hole transport characteristics of molecule blends of 1, 4, 5, 8, 9 and 11-hexaazatriphenylene-hexacarbonitrile （HAT-CN）： N,N＇-di（naphthalene-l-yl）-N,N＇-diphenyl-benzidine （NPB） and HAT-CN： 4,4＇-cyclohex...The hole transport characteristics of molecule blends of 1, 4, 5, 8, 9 and 11-hexaazatriphenylene-hexacarbonitrile （HAT-CN）： N,N＇-di（naphthalene-l-yl）-N,N＇-diphenyl-benzidine （NPB） and HAT-CN： 4,4＇-cyclohexylidenebis[N,N- bis（4-methylphenyl）benzenamine] （TAPC） with various NPB and TAPC mixing concentrations （5 90wt%） are studied. When the concentration is in the range of 5-80wt%, it is found that the hole conductions in the two blends are space-charge-limited current （SCLC） with free trap distributions. The current-voltage characteristics of the two blends show SCLC with exponentiM trap distributions at the concentration of 90wt%. The hole mo- bilities of the two blends are very close （10^-4-10^-3 cm2 V^-1 s-X ）, the dependence of electric field and temperature can be described by the modified Poole-Frenkel model. The hole mobility and activation energy of the two blends depending on concentration are similar.展开更多

Electrically tunable transport properties throughgating materials have been extensively investigated. However, the relatively weak and volatile tunability limits its practicalapplications in spintronics. Here, we demonstrate the nonvolatile electric-field control of Bi_(2)Te_(3) transport properties viaconstructing ferroelectric Rashba architectures, i.e., 2D Bi_(2)Te_(3)/a-In_(2)Se_(3) ferroelectric field-effect transistors. By switchingthe polarization states of a-In2Se3, the Fermi level, resistance, Fermi wave vector, carrier mobility, carrier density andmagnetoresistance (MR) of the Bi_(2)Te_(3) film can be effectively modulated. Importantly, a shift of the Fermi level towards aband gap with a surface state occurs as switching to a negative polarization state, the contribution of the surface state to theconductivity then increases, thereby increasing the carrier mobility and electron coherence length significantly, resulting inthe enhanced weak anti-localization (WAL) effect. These results provide a nonvolatile electric-field control method to tunethe electronic properties of TI and can further extend to quantum transport properties.展开更多

It is found that K3IO exhibits relatively low lattice thermal conductivity of 0.93 W·m-1·K-1 at 300 K, which is lower than the value 1.26 W·m-1·K-1 of the classical TE material PbTe. This is due to the smaller phonon group velocity νg and smaller relaxation time τλ. The low lattice thermal conductivity can lead to excellent thermoelectric properties. Thus maximum zT of 2.87 is obtained at 700 K, and the zT = 0.41 at 300 K indicate that K3IO is a potential excellent room temperature TE material. Our research on K3IO shows that it has excellent thermoelectric properties, and it is a promising candidate for applications in fields in terms of thermoelectricity.展开更多
