The subject of this book is the investigation of lattice imperfections in semiconductors by
means of positron annihilation. A comprehensive review is given of the different positron …

This article presents an overview of current understanding of the interaction of low-energy
positrons with molecules with emphasis on resonances, positron attachment, and …

Positron annihilation spectroscopy (PAS) is a novel method that provides molecular-level
information about complex macromolecular structure in a manner different from, but …

Synergetic optimization of electrical and thermal transport properties is achieved for SnTe‐
based nano‐crystalline materials. Gd doping is able to suppress the Sn vacancy, which is …

We have investigated the magnetic properties of pure ZnO thin films grown under N 2
pressure on a-, c-, and r-plane Al 2 O 3 substrates by pulsed-laser deposition. The substrate …

Theoretical positron lifetime values have been calculated systematically for most of the
elements of the periodic table. Self-consistent and non-self-consistent schemes have been …

Within the last decade powerful methods have been developed to study surfaces using
bright low-energy positron beams. These novel analysis tools exploit the unique properties …

As a liquid-like material, CuAgSe has high carrier mobility and ultralow lattice thermal
conductivity. It undergoes an n–p conduction-type transition during β-to α-phase transition …

In the present work the effect of concrete incorporation with two types of nano-lead
compounds on its γ-ray shielding characteristics is investigated. The concrete samples were …

Synergetic optimization of the electrical and thermal transport performance of GeTe has
been achieved through Sb doping in this work, resulting in a high thermoelectric figure of …
