TL;DR: In this paper, the PLD growth of Mo doped In-O, an n-type material with enhanced mobilities, and p-type Ca-CuInO2 films with improved conductivity is reported.

TL;DR: This work uses classical and first principles calculations to provide insight into the strain field component of phonon scattering from isoelectronic point defects, and presents and verify several computational descriptors that correlate well with the experimentally measured strain fields.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present performance simulations and economic analysis of a modular dispatchable solar power tower using a heliostat field and power block three orders of magnitude smaller than conventional solar power towers, which locates thermal storage and a power block directly on a tower receiver.

TL;DR: In this article, first-principles calculations and material synthesis and characterization are combined to show that the leading cause of the conductivity decrease is the increased formation of acceptor-like compensating intrinsic defects, such as zinc vacancies (VZn), which reduce the free electron concentration and decrease the mobility through ionized impurity scattering.

TL;DR: In this article, the precursors of YBaCuO and TlBaCaCaCuO (TBCCO) were fabricated via an electrodeposition process and the YBCO films were deposited under both constant and pulsed-potential conditions.
