Hydrogenated Boron Phosphide with the excellent tunability of electronic properties and Current-Voltage responses

Combining the first principles calculations and the non-equilibrium Green’s function formalisms, we decipher the structural, electronic, and transport properties of boron phosphide (BP) with hydrogenation. Hydrogenated BP monolayer is an indirect semiconductor with a wide-bandgap of 3.76 eV that is favorable in power devices. We find that the...

Electron-Irradiation-Induced Degradation of Transfer Characteristics in Super-Junction VDMOSFET

High electric-field stress is an effective solution to the recovery of irradiated devices. In this paper, the dependence of the recovery level on the magnitude of gate voltage and duration is investigated. Compared with the scheme of high gate-bias voltage with a short stress time, the transfer characteristics are significantly recovered by...

Resilience assessment of asphalt pavement rutting under climate change

The service performances of asphalt pavement, especially rutting, will be inevitably affected by climate change. However, existing studies have generally focused on the rutting depth and rutting life, and thus became insufficient for comprehensively evaluating the influence of climate change on rutting over the service life. A resilience...

Micro-nano bubbles assisted laccase for biocatalytic degradation of bisphenols

Bisphenols are important industrial materials for example for the production of plastics, but are also well known for their adverse health effects, in particular bisphenol A (BPA) is an endocrine disruptor. The widespread use of plastics has raised concerns. Therefore, the removal of bisphenols from wastewater has sparked the interest of the...

The inactivation mechanism of chemical disinfection against SARS-CoV-2: From MD and DFT perspectives

Exploring effective disinfection methods and understanding their mechanisms on the new coronavirus is becoming more active due to the outbreak of novel coronavirus pneumonia (COVID-19) caused by severe acute respiratory coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). By combining molecular dynamics and first-principles calculations, we investigate the...
