We present the characterization of a pn-junction GaAs nanowire. For the characterization, current-voltage, electron-beam-induced current, cathodoluminescence, and electron holography measurements are used. We show that by combining information from these four methods, in combination with drift-diffusion modelling, we obtain a detailed picture of how the nanowire pn-junction is configured and how the recombination lifetime varies axially in the nanowire.

In addition to dealing with the pandemic's impact on mental health, parents need to cope with specific changes in their routines caused by social distance measures. This study aimed to investigate common mental disorders (CMD) symptoms in Brazilian parents during the COVID-19 pandemic and its associated factors.

By probing the local dynamics at the nanoscale, along the wire for different temperatures between 4 and 250 K, we conclude that this diffusion process is thermally activated. In addition, the analysis of the cathodoluminescence lifetime for different temperatures shows that the carrier motion is isotropic and does not follow the indium gradient.
