N-type resonances excited in rubidium atoms confined in micrometric-thin cells with variable thickness from 1 μm to 2 mm are studied experimentally for the cases of a pure Rb atomic vapor and of a vapor with neon buffer gas. Good contrast and narrow linewidth were obtained for thicknesses as low as 30 μm. The higher amplitude and sharper profile of N-type resonances in the case of a buffered cell was exploited to study the splitting of the 85Rb D1 N-resonance in a magnetic field of up to 2200 G. The results are fully consistent with the theory. The mechanism responsible for forming N-resonances is discussed. Possible applications are addressed.

The decoupling of electronic states between metals and semiconductors through controlled construction of artificial van der Waals (vdW) heterojunctions enables tailored Schottky barriers. However, the interfacial chemistry, especially involving solid-liquid interfaces, remains unexplored. Here, first principles calculations reveal unexpected strong Fermi-level pinning in various metal/MoS vdW heterojunctions with intercalated ice-like water bilayers.

Bisphenol A (BPA) is considered to be a typical endocrine-disrupting compounds (EDCs), and its widespread existence in nature is quite harmful to human and ecological environment. The S-scheme n-n heterojunction composite (BiOCO/BiOS) was constructed via a facile two-step chemical precipitation method for the removal of BPA in water environment. The optimal composite catalyst exhibited outstanding catalytic activity for BPA, obtaining approximately 0.

A parabolic potential that confines charge carriers along the growth direction of quantum wells semiconductor systems is characterized by a single resonance frequency, associated to intersubband transitions. Motivated by fascinating quantum optics applications leveraging on this property, we use the technologically relevant SiGe material system to design, grow, and characterize n-type doped parabolic quantum wells realized by continuously grading Ge-rich Si Ge alloys, deposited on silicon wafers. An extensive structural analysis highlights the capability of the ultra-high-vacuum chemical vapor deposition technique here used to precisely control the quadratic confining potential and the target doping profile.

Tuning the polarity of charge carriers is essential for designing molecular logic devices in molecular electronics. In this study, the electrical transport properties of a family of azaindole-anchored single-molecule junctions have been investigated using density functional theory combined with the nonequilibrium Green's function method. The obtained results reveal that dehydrogenation is an effective method for reversing the polarity of charge carriers.

The interface of substances at the photoexcited state is completely different from that at the ground state, which gives a chance to create some unprecedented physical and chemical properties. These interface-dominated properties can significantly improve carrier transport kinetics. Herein, we report a special photochemical strategy for constructing a heterogeneous interface.
