Gallium nitride (GaN) is one of the most promising materials for high-frequency devices owing to its prominent material properties. We report on the fabrication and study of a series of Schottky diodes in the ground-signal-ground topology based on individual GaN nanowires. The electrical characterization of-curves demonstrated relatively high ideality factor value (about 6-9) in comparison to the planar Au/GaN diodes that can be attributed to the nanowire geometry. The effective barrier height in the studied structures was defined in the range of 0.25-0.4 eV. The small-signal frequency analysis was employed to study the dependency of the scattering parameters in the broad range from 0.1 to 40 GHz. The approximation fitting of the experimental data indicated the record high cutoff frequency of about 165.8 GHz.

Constructing a solid solution is an effective strategy for regulating the properties of composite organic semiconductors. However, there presents significant challenges in fabrication and understanding of organic solid-solution semiconductors. In this study, infinite solid-solution semiconductors are successfully achieved by integrating rod-like organic molecules, thereby overcoming the limitations of current organic composite semiconductors.

Van der Waals electrode integration is a promising strategy to create nearly perfect interfaces between metals and 2D materials, with advantages such as eliminating Fermi-level pinning and reducing contact resistance. However, the lack of a simple, generalizable pick-and-place transfer technology has greatly hampered the wide use of this technique. We demonstrate the pick-and-place transfer of prefabricated electrodes from reusable polished hydrogenated diamond substrates without the use of any sacrificial layers due to the inherent low-energy and dangling-bond-free nature of the hydrogenated diamond surface.

Heterojunctions (HJs) based on two-dimensional (2D) transition metal dichalcogenides are considered promising candidates for next-generation electronic and optoelectronic devices. Here, vertical (V-type) and lateral (L-type) HJ diodes based on metallic 1T-VSe and semiconducting 2H-WSe with out-of-plane and in-plane contacts are designed. First-principles quantum transport simulations reveal that both V- and L-type VSe/WSe HJ diodes form p-type Schottky contacts.

GaO Schottky photodiodes are being actively explored for solar-blind ultraviolet (SBUV) detection, owing to the fast photoresponse and easy fabrication. However, their performance, limited by the Schottky contact, mostly underperforms the expectations. Herein, a Ni/β-GaO vertical Schottky barrier diode (SBD) with an ultrathin anode electrode is demonstrated.

Boasting superior flexibility in beam manipulation and a simpler framework than traditional phased arrays, terahertz metasurface-based phased arrays show great promise for 5G-A/6G communication networks. Compared with the reflective reconfigurable intelligent surface (reflective RIS), the transmissive RIS (TRIS) offers more feasibility for transceiver multiplexing systems to meet the growing demand for high-performance beam tracking in terahertz communication and radar systems. However, the terahertz TRIS encounters greater challenges in phase shift, beam efficiency, and complex circuitry.
