X-ray Crystallography

X-ray Crystallography

The size of the unit cell and the arrangement of atoms in a crystal may be determined from measurements of the diffraction of X-rays by the crystal, termed X-ray crystallography.
Diffraction
Diffraction is the change in the direction of travel experienced by an electromagnetic wave when it encounters a physical barrier whose dimensions are comparable to those of the wavelength of the light. X-rays are electromagnetic radiation with wavelengths about as long as the distance between neighboring...

Atomic Emission Spectroscopy: Lab

AES is a powerful analytical technique, especially effective when used with plasma sources, producing abundant spectra in characteristic emission lines. The Inductively Coupled Plasma (ICP), in particular, yields superior quantitative analytical data due to its high stability, low noise, low background, and minimal interferences under optimal experimental conditions. However, newer air-operated microwave sources are emerging as promising alternatives that could be more cost-effective than...

Computational Materials Science

Background:

Charged defect scattering significantly impacts material properties.
Existing methods for calculating scattering are limited by assumptions about bare charge distribution.

Purpose of the Study:

To develop a first-principles method for accurate calculation of charged defect scattering.
To investigate the electron mobility in 2D Molybdenum Disulfide (MoS2) considering charged defect scattering.

Main Methods:

Developed a first-principles approach to determine bare charge distribution of defects.
Calculated electron mobility in 2D MoS2 with charged sulfur vacancies and compared with neutral oxygen substitutes.
Analyzed the temperature and carrier concentration dependence of mobility.

Main Results:

The new method enables accurate calculation of charged defect scattering.
Charged defect-limited mobility in 2D MoS2 shows strong temperature dependence at low temperatures and carrier concentrations.
This temperature dependence is attributed to free carrier screening of the defect's scattering potential.

Conclusions:

The developed method provides accurate calculations for charged defect scattering.
Findings offer new insights into electron transport mechanisms in 2D materials.
Enables better understanding and prediction of material properties influenced by charged defects.
