Zhang, Heng (author), Debroye, Elke (author), Fu, Shuai (author), González, Miriam C.Rodriguez (author), du Fossé, I. (author), Geuchies, Jaco J. (author), Gao, Lei (author), Yu, Xiaoqing (author), Houtepen, A.J. (author)Synergically combining their respective ultrahigh charge mobility and strong light absorption, graphene (Gr)/semiconductor heterostructures are promising building blocks for efficient optoelectronics, particularly photodetectors. Charge transfer (CT) across the heterostructure interface crucially determines device efficiency and functionality...journal article 2023

Kulkarni, A. (author), Evers, W.H. (author), Tomić, Stanko (author), Beard, Matthew C. (author), Vanmaekelbergh, Daniel (author), Siebbeles, L.D.A. (author)Carrier multiplication (CM) is a process in which a single photon excites two or more electrons. CM is of interest to enhance the efficiency of a solar cell. Until now, CM in thin films and solar cells of semiconductor nanocrystals (NCs) has been found at photon energies well above the minimum required energy of twice the band gap. The high...journal article 2018

(author)A frequency tunable terahertz heterodyne spectrometer, based on a third-order distributed feedback quantum cascade laser as a local oscillator, has been demonstrated by measuring molecular spectral lines of methanol (CH3OH) gas at 3.5 THz. By varying the bias voltage of the laser, we achieved a tuning range of ? 1?GHz of the lasing frequency,...journal article 2011

Schins, J.M. (author)The retrieval of the primary (subpicosecond) photoproducts in small-band two-dimensional time-domain terahertz spectroscopy has succeeded only in a few model systems, due to the complicated correlation between the two time parameters. We show that the nature of the primary photoproducts is revealed upon differentiating the measured time-domain...journal article 2010

(author), Kumar, S. (author), Hu, Q. (author), Reno, J.L. (author)A terahertz (THz) heterodyne spectrometer is demonstrated based on a quantum cascade laser (QCL) as a local oscillator (LO) and an NbN hot electron bolometer as a mixer, and it is used to measure high-resolution molecular spectral lines of methanol (CH3OH) between 2.913–2.918 THz. The spectral lines are taken from a gas cell containing methanol...journal article 2010
