A spin-orbit playground: Surfaces and interfaces of transition metal oxides

Within the last twenty years, the status of the spinorbit interaction has evolved from that of a simple atomic contribution to a key effect that modifies the electronic band structure of materials. It is regarded as one of the basic ingredients for spintronics, locking together charge and spin degrees of freedom and recently it is...

Hydrogen sulfide detection properties of Pt-gated AlGaN/GaN HEMT-sensor

AlGaN/GaN high electron mobility transistor (HEMT)-based sensors with catalytic platinum gate were micro-fabricated on commercially available epitaxial wafers and extensively characterized for ppm level hydrogen sulfide (H₂S) detection for industrial safety applications. High operating temperature above 150 °C enabled large signal...
