1. Low-temperature deposition of epitaxial transition metal carbide films and superlattices using C60 as carbon source
Abstract : The transition metal carbides are chemical compounds with a unique set of propertiesused in many thin film applications. In this work, thin films of group 4-5 transitionmetal carbides and superlattices were deposited at low temperatures by simultaneousevaporation of C60 using either metal e-beam evaporation or d.c. magnetron sputtering.

2. Transmission Electron Microscopy of Semiconductor Nanowires
Abstract : Semiconductor nanowires are studied by using transmission electron microscopy (TEM) based methods in this work. In the first section, the growth mechanism of gallium arsenide nanowires grown by chemical beam epitaxy is investigated. The nanowires are epitaxially grown from a gallium arsenide substrate by using gold seed particles as catalysts. READ MORE

3. Semiconductor Hetero- and Nanostructures
Abstract : In this thesis, chemical beam epitaxy was used to fabricate nm-sized crystalline structures. Most of the systems were based on heterostructures, i.e., combinations of different kinds of crystalline materials. READ MORE

4. Electron Transport in Semiconductor Nanowires
Abstract : In this thesis, semiconductor nanowires are studied from the point of view of growth and electrical properties. The growth of nanowires is done by chemical beam epitaxy (CBE), an ultra-high vacuum technique allowing a precise control of precursor deposition and low growth rates. READ MORE

5. Growth, Physics, and Device Applications of InAs-based Nanowires
Abstract : This thesis is based on three different projects: 1) the epitaxial growth of nanowires using chemical beam epitaxy, 2) the study of electron transport through quantum dots and multiple quantum dots in nanowires at low temperature, and 3) the development of wrap gated nanowire field effect transistors. In the first part, a method of studying the diffusion of the source material on the substrate surface was developed. READ MORE
