- ItemCharged domains in ferroelectric, polycrystalline yttrium manganite thin films resolved with scanning electron microscopy(Bristol : IOP Publ., 2020) Rayapati, Venkata Rao; Bürger, Danilo; Du, Nan; Kowol, Cornelia; Blaschke, Daniel; Stöcker, Hartmut; Matthes, Patrick; Patra, Rajkumar; Skorupa, Ilona; Schulz, Stefan E.; Schmidt, HeidemarieWe have investigated ferroelectric charged domains in polycrystalline hexagonal yttrium manganite thin films (Y1Mn1O3, Y0.95Mn1.05O3, Y1Mn0.99Ti0.01O3, and Y0.94Mn1.05Ti0.01O3) by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) in secondary electron emission mode with a small acceleration voltage. Using SEM at an acceleration voltage of 1.0 kV otherwise homogenous surface charging effects are reduced, polarization charges can be observed and polarization directions (±Pz) of the ferroelectric domains in the polycrystalline thin films can be identified. Thin films of different chemical composition have been deposited by pulsed laser deposition on Pt/SiO2/Si structures under otherwise same growth conditions. Using SEM it has been shown that different charged domain density networks are existing in polycrystalline yttrium manganite thin films. © 2020 IOP Publishing Ltd.
- ItemP-N junction-based Si biochips with ring electrodes for novel biosensing applications(Basel : MDPI, 2019) Kiani, Mahdi; Du, Nan; Vogel, Manja; Raff, Johannes; Hübner, Uwe; Skorupa, Ilona; Bürger, Danilo; Schulz, Stefan E.; Schmidt, Oliver G.; Schmidt, HeidemarieIn this work, we report on the impedance of p-n junction-based Si biochips with gold ring top electrodes and unstructured platinum bottom electrodes which allows for counting target biomaterial in a liquid-filled ring top electrode region. The systematic experiments on p-n junction-based Si biochips fabricated by two different sets of implantation parameters (i.e. biochips PS5 and BS5) are studied, and the comparable significant change of impedance characteristics in the biochips in dependence on the number of bacteria suspension, i.e., Lysinibacillus sphaericus JG-A12, in Deionized water with an optical density at 600 nm from OD600 = 4–16 in the electrode ring region is demonstrated. Furthermore, with the help of the newly developed two-phase electrode structure, the modeled capacitance and resistance parameters of the electrical equivalent circuit describing the p-n junction-based biochips depend linearly on the number of bacteria in the ring top electrode region, which successfully proves the potential performance of p-n junction-based Si biochips in observing the bacterial suspension. The proposed p-n junction-based biochips reveal perspective applications in medicine and biology for diagnosis, monitoring, management, and treatment of diseases.In this work, we report on the impedance of p-n junction-based Si biochips with gold ring top electrodes and unstructured platinum bottom electrodes which allows for counting target biomaterial in a liquid-filled ring top electrode region.
