Journal Article
Mendis, B., Howkins, A., Stowe, D., Major, J., & Durose, K. (2016). The role of transition radiation in cathodoluminescence imaging and spectroscopy of thin-foils. Ultramicroscopy, 167, 31-42. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ultramic.2016.05.002

There is renewed interest in cathodoluminescence (CL) in the transmission electron microscope, since it can be combined with low energy loss spectroscopy measurements and can also be used to probe defects, such as grain boundaries and dislocations, a...

The effects of junction interdiffusion and misfit dislocations on the efficiency of highly mismatched heterojunction photovoltaic devices (2016)
Journal Article
Mendis, B., Treharne, R., Lane, D., & Durose, K. (2016). The effects of junction interdiffusion and misfit dislocations on the efficiency of highly mismatched heterojunction photovoltaic devices. Applied Physics Letters, 108(18), Article 183505. https://doi.org/10.1063/1.4948397

A general modelling methodology has been developed to evaluate the effects of chemical interdiffusion and misfit dislocations on the performance of heterojunction solar cells made from highly mismatched materials. Results for the exemplar materials s... Read More about The effects of junction interdiffusion and misfit dislocations on the efficiency of highly mismatched heterojunction photovoltaic devices.

Understanding quaternary compound Cu2ZnSnSe4 synthesis by microscopic scale analyses at an identical location (2016)
Journal Article
Crossay, A., Colombara, D., Melchiorre, M., Guennou, M., Mendis, B., & Dale, P. (2016). Understanding quaternary compound Cu2ZnSnSe4 synthesis by microscopic scale analyses at an identical location. Journal of Materials Chemistry C Materials for optical and electronic devices, 4(21), 4626-4629. https://doi.org/10.1039/c6tc01114d

The synthesis of multinary compound films from layered precursors is only partially understood. Identical location microscopy resolves the multi-step synthesis of Cu2ZnSnSe4 from metallic stacks on the micron-scale. Large scale metal alloying and the...

Direct growth of Si nanowires on flexible organic substrates (2016)
Journal Article
Tian (田琳), L., Di Mario, L., Minotti, A., Tiburzi, G., Mendis, B. G., Zeze, D. A., & Martelli, F. (2016). Direct growth of Si nanowires on flexible organic substrates. Nanotechnology, 27(22), Article 225601. https://doi.org/10.1088/0957-4484/27/22/225601

A key characteristic of semiconductor nanowires (NWs) is that they grow on any substrate that can withstand the growth conditions, paving the way for their use in flexible electronics. We report on the direct growth of crystalline silicon nanowires o... Read More about Direct growth of Si nanowires on flexible organic substrates.
