Electrical Properties of Al/p-Si Structures with Colchicine Organic Thin Film
In this study, we have fabricated an Al/Colchicine/p-Si structure and have investigated its current–
voltage (I–V) and capacitance–voltage (C–V) characteristics at room temperature. The barrier height and
ideality factor values of 0.68 eV and 3.22, respectively, have been obtained from the I-V plot. The value of
the barrier height was compared with the barrier height value of 0.50 eV of a conventional Al/p-Si diode.
This was attributed to the Colchicine organic film modifying the effective barrier height by affecting the
space charge region of the inorganic Si semiconductor substrate. By using C – 2-V characteristics the diffusion
potential value has been extracted as 1.32 V.

Temperature dependence of electrical properties in In/Cu2ZnSnTe4/Si/Ag diodes
WOS: 000458625200001Cu2ZnSnTe4 (CZTTe) thin films with In metal contact were deposited by thermal evaporation on monocrystalline n-type Si wafers with Ag ohmic contact to investigate the device characteristics of an In/CZTTe/Si/Ag diode. The variation in electrical characteristics of the diode was analysed by carrying out current-voltage (I-V) measurements in the temperature range of 220-360 K. The forward bias I-V behaviour was modelled according to the thermionic emission (TE) theory to obtain main diode parameters. In addition, the experimental data were detailed by taking into account the presence of an interfacial layer and possible dominant current transport mechanisms were studied under analysis of ideality factor, n. Strong effects of temperature were observed on zero-bias barrier height (Phi(B0)) and n values due to barrier height inhomogeneity at the interface. The anomaly observed in the analysis of TE was modelled by Gaussian distribution (GD) of barrier heights with 0.844 eV mean barrier height and 0.132 V standard deviation. According to the Tung's theoretical approach, a linear correlation between Phi(B0) and n cannot be satisfied, and thus the modified Richardson plot was used to determine Richardson constant (A*). As a result, A* was calculated approximately as 120.6 A cm(-2) K-2 very close to the theoretical value for n-Si. In addition, the effects of series resistance (R-s) by estimating from Cheng's function and density of surface states (N-ss) by taking the bias dependence of effective barrier height, were discussed
On the new massive gravity and AdS/CFT
Demanding the existence of a simple holographic -theorem, it is shown that
a general (parity preserving) theory of gravity in 2+1 dimensions involving
upto four derivative curvature invariants reduces to the new massive gravity
theory. We consider extending the theory including upto six derivative
curvature invariants. Black hole solutions are presented and consistency with
1+1 CFTs is checked. We present evidence that bulk unitarity is still in
conflict with a positive CFT central charge for generic choice of parameters.
However, for a special choice of parameters appearing in the four and six
derivative terms reduces the linearized equations to be two derivative, thereby
ameliorating the unitarity problem.Comment: 16 pages, 2 figures. v4: typo correcte
Holographic two-point functions for 4d log-gravity
We compute holographic one- and two-point functions of critical
higher-curvature gravity in four dimensions. The two most important operators
are the stress tensor and its logarithmic partner, sourced by ordinary massless
and by logarithmic non-normalisable gravitons, respectively. In addition, the
logarithmic gravitons source two ordinary operators, one with spin-one and one
with spin-zero. The one-point function of the stress tensor vanishes for all
Einstein solutions, but has a non-zero contribution from logarithmic gravitons.
The two-point functions of all operators match the expectations from a
three-dimensional logarithmic conformal field theory.Comment: 35 pages; v2: typos corrected, added reference; v3: shorter

AdS/BCFT Correspondence for Higher Curvature Gravity: An Example
We consider the effects of higher curvature terms on a holographic dual
description of boundary conformal field theory. Specifically, we consider
three-dimensional gravity with a specific combination of Ricci tensor square
and curvature scalar square, so called, new massive gravity. We show that a
boundary entropy and an entanglement entropy are given by similar expression
with those of the Einstein gravity case when we introduce an {\it effective}
Newton's constant and an {\it effective} cosmological constant. We also show
that the holographic g-theorem still holds in this extension, and we give some
comments about the central charge dependence of boundary entropy in the
holographic construction. In the same way, we consider new type black holes and
comment on the boundary profile. Moreover, we reproduce these results through
auxiliary field formalism in this specific higher curvature gravity.Comment: 27pages, minor corrections, accepted in JHE
Short-cut to new anomalies in gravity duals to logarithmic conformal field theories
Various massive gravity theories in three dimensions are conjecturally dual
to logarithmic conformal field theories (LCFTs). We summarise the status of
these conjectures. LCFTs are characterised by the values of the central charges
and the so-called "new anomalies". We employ a short-cut to calculate these new
anomalies in generalised massive gravity and in the recently proposed
higher-derivative gravity theories with holographic c-theorem. Both cases
permit LCFTs exhibiting intriguing features, like rank three Jordan cells or
non-zero central charges. Finally, as an example we discuss in some detail the
partially massless version of new massive gravity, a theory with several
special properties that we call "partially massless gravity".Comment: 34 pages, 2 figures; v2: added references; v3: Several rewordings in

On higher derivative gravity, c-theorems and cosmology
We consider higher derivative gravity lagrangians in 3 and 4 dimensions,
which admit simple c-theorems, including upto six derivative curvature
invariants. Following a suggestion by Myers, these lagrangians are restricted
such that the fluctuations around (anti) de Sitter spaces have second order
linearized equations of motion. We study c-theorems both in the context of
AdS/CFT and cosmology. In the context of cosmology, the monotonic function is
the entropy defined on the apparent horizon through Wald's formula. Exact black
hole solutions which are asymptotically (anti) de Sitter are presented. An
interesting lower bound for entropy is found in de Sitter space. Some aspects
of cosmology in both D=3 and D=4 are discussed.Comment: 23 pages, v3: clarifications added, references adde
Holographic Renormalization and Stress Tensors in New Massive Gravity
We obtain holographically renormalized boundary stress tensors with the
emphasis on a special point in the parameter space of three dimensional new
massive gravity, using the so-called Fefferman-Graham coordinates with relevant
counter terms. Through the linearized equations of motion with a standard
prescription, we also obtain correlators among these stress tensors. We argue
that the self-consistency of holographic renormalization determines counter
terms up to unphysical ambiguities. Using these renormalized stress tensors in
Fefferman-Graham coordinates, we obtain the central charges of dual CFT, and
mass and angular momentum of some black hole solutions. These results are
consistent with the previous ones obtained by other methods. In this study on
the Fefferman-Graham expansion of new massive gravity, some aspects of higher
curvature gravity are revealed.Comment: Version accepted for publication in JHEP, conclusion revised,

Holographic studies of quasi-topological gravity
Quasi-topological gravity is a new gravitational theory including
curvature-cubed interactions and for which exact black hole solutions were
constructed. In a holographic framework, classical quasi-topological gravity
can be thought to be dual to the large limit of some non-supersymmetric
but conformal gauge theory. We establish various elements of the AdS/CFT
dictionary for this duality. This allows us to infer physical constraints on
the couplings in the gravitational theory. Further we use holography to
investigate hydrodynamic aspects of the dual gauge theory. In particular, we
find that the minimum value of the shear-viscosity-to-entropy-density ratio for
this model is .Comment: 45 pages, 6 figures. v2: References adde
