Abstract:

This program has dealt with characterizing junctions formed between semiconductors and insertion compounds. Examples of the latter are HxWO3 and HxIrO2, which have a variable work function according to the stoichiometry parameter, x. Specific applications of the structures to optically activated light modulators and to chemical sensors have been demonstrated.
