Bulk induced photo-current in topological insulating materials (Bi2Se3/Si) heterojunction for highly responsive photodetectors

Studies of quintuple layers (QLs) dependent transport can shed light on the bulk and surface states because bulk and surface transport parameters have different QL dependencies. The QL dependency of material properties in Bi2Se3 reported in this …

Bi2Te2Se and Sb2Te3 heterostructure based photodetectors with high responsivity and broadband photoresponse: experimental and theoretical analysis

Topological insulators have emerged as one of the most promising candidates for the fabrication of novel electronic and optoelectronic devices due to the unique properties of nontrivial Dirac cones on the surface and a narrow bandgap in the bulk. In …

Strain induced photocurrent enhancement in thin films of topological insulators (Bi2Te3)

Topological insulators are anticipated to be a viable option for flexible near-infrared (NIR) photodetection that is a basic potential comportment for future photoelectric applications, wearable devices, and potential defence applications. Here we …

Effect of Ni substitution on the structural, magnetic, and thermodynamic properties in Gd2−xNixIn (0 ≤ x ≤ 1) intermetallic compounds: An experimental and theoretical study

In this article, we report the various changes observed and studied experimentally and theoretically in the structural, magnetic, and thermodynamic properties of the Gd2-xNixIn (0≤ x≤ 1) intermetallic compounds owing to the changes in the composition …

Modifications in the magnetocaloric effect owing to composition changes in Gd2In1−xGex (0 ≤ x ≤ 0.2) system of compounds

In this paper, we report the variations observed in magnetothermal, magnetocaloric, and magnetic properties of the Gd2In1−xGex (0 ≤ x ≤ 0.2) system of compounds concerning the changes in substitution of Ge. Changes have been recorded in a temperature …

Critical analysis of chemical and hydrostatic pressure-induced Gd5Si2Ge2 alloy

We have investigated the consequences of external pressure on the magneto-thermal, critical behavior, and magnetocaloric properties of the polycrystalline alloy Gd5Si2Ge2 and Cu-substitute Gd5Si2Ge1.9Cu0.1 alloy. The ordering temperature of the …

Anomalous Magnetic Properties in LaFe11.5Al1.5

We report the magnetic relaxation, DC magnetization, heat capacity, and X-ray powder diffraction studies of a melt-spun LaFe11.5Al1.5 compound executed across a temperature range of 5 to 300 K. We have found three magnetic transitions (at …
