Vacancy-type point defects, i.e., defects where one or several atoms are missing from a lattice site, are often present in rather high concentrations in semiconductors and insulators due to their ...

went searching for such a spin in the popular semiconductor gallium nitride and found it, surprisingly, in two distinct species of defect, one of which can be manipulated for future quantum ...

Dr. Mooney was chair of the Gordon Research Conference on Defects in Semiconductors, organized symposia at MRS meetings, and has served on the program committees of numerous other conferences. She was ...

Another critical aspect of semiconductor nanostructures is the stability of point defects, which can significantly affect electronic properties. A study on GaAs/AlGaAs superlattices found that ...
