Photon-triggered nanowire transistors
Nature Nanotechnology 12, 963 (2017).
doi:10.1038/nnano.2017.153
Authors: Jungkil Kim, Hoo-Cheol Lee, Kyoung-Ho Kim, Min-Soo Hwang, Jin-Sung Park, Jung Min Lee, Jae-Pil So, Jae-Hyuck Choi, Soon-Hong Kwon, Carl J. Barrelet & Hong-Gyu Park
Photon-triggered electronic circuits have been a long-standing goal of photonics. Recent demonstrations include either all-optical transistors in which photons control other photons or phototransistors with the gate response tuned or enhanced by photons. However, only a few studies report on devices in which electronic currents are optically switched and amplified without an el...

Magnetic quantum phase transition in Cr-doped Bi2(SexTe1 −x)3 driven by the Stark effect
Nature Nanotechnology 12, 953 (2017).
doi:10.1038/nnano.2017.149
Authors: Zuocheng Zhang, Xiao Feng, Jing Wang, Biao Lian, Jinsong Zhang, Cuizu Chang, Minghua Guo, Yunbo Ou, Yang Feng, Shou-Cheng Zhang, Ke He, Xucun Ma, Qi-Kun Xue & Yayu Wang
The recent experimental observation of the quantum anomalous Hall effect has cast significant attention on magnetic topological insulators. In these magnetic counterparts of conventional topological insulators such as Bi2Te3, a long-range ferromagnetic state can be established by chemical doping with transition-metal elements. However, a much richer electronic phase diagra...
