«There is a certain type
of doping element that minimizes hydrogen's ability to penetrate, whereas other doping elements can introduce a maximum amount of electrons in the oxide, and facilitate the ejection of hydrogen gas right at the surface of the oxide,» says Mostafa.
The position and density
of the doping elements can be controlled in these ribbons, which, in turn, allows the electronic properties of the ribbons themselves to be controlled on the atomic level.

A silicon crystal is
doped by adding trace amounts
of some other
element that has either more free electrons than silicon's four (producing an electron surplus and making the result negative, or n - type) or fewer free electrons (producing a net electron deficit, and hence a positive, or p - type).
The
doping process normally requires the presence
of niobium ions in the target material, but this also implies that the concentration
of this
element is defined from the outset.
But the hydrogen's dissolution can be controlled by
doping that layer — that is, by introducing atoms
of another

The World Anti-
Doping Agency (WADA), whose drug code governs the Olympics and other events, defines gene
doping as «the non-therapeutic use
