  2. 1. InGaAs/AlGaAs Heterojunction Phototransistors for Optical Signal Processing Applications

    Author : Ola Sjölund; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : This thesis deals with InGaAs/AlGaAs heterojunction phototransistors (HPTs) operating in the wavelength region where the GaAs substrate is transparent. Vertical integration of such a current amplifying detector with emitters or modulators will facilitate the fabrication of two dimensional arrays of components for parallel optical signal processing and transmission applications.

    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; magnetoconductance; mesoscopic; electron billiard; quantum dot; quantum ratchets; non-linear; symmetries; non-symmetric conduction; rectification; artificial material; Halvledarfysik; Fysicumarkivet A:2002:Löfgren; ballistic transport; quantum transport; 2DEG; Semiconductory physics; InP InGaAs; GaAs AlGaAs;

    Abstract : In this thesis, electron transport in mesoscopic semiconductor nanostructures, in particular so-called electron billiards or quantum dots, is studied. The thesis can be divided into two areas: the linear response regime of transport, and the nonlinear response regime of transport. READ MORE

  5. 3. Nanoelectronic Devices Based on Low-Dimensional Semiconductor Structures

    Author : Daniel Wallin; Fasta tillståndets fysik; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; InGaAs InP; GaAs AlGaAs; ballistic transport; quantum transport; low-dimensional structures; two-dimensional electron gas; quantum dot; three terminal ballistic junction; nanowire;

    Abstract : The present thesis reports on results from the fabrication technology development and the corresponding electrical transport measurements of low-dimensional semiconductor structures. The focus of the work has been directed towards two parts: the ballistic transport in nanostructure devices at room temperature, and the development of a charge-sensing technique for quantum dots (QD) in nanowires.

  7. 5. Electrical and Optical Properties of AlGaAs/GaAs Aperiodic Superlattices and Resonant Tunneling Diodes. Theory, Design and Applications

    Author : Simon Mang Cao; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; exciton-assisted transport; miniband; high-speed quantum electronics; optical properties; ultrafast optoelectronics; field-induced transport; irregular superlattices; nanometer-scale heterostructures; laser diodes; resonant tunneling;

    Abstract : The objective of the work presented in this thesis is to study quantum transport and optical properties of aperiodic superlattices and resonant tunneling diodes using III-V semiconductor heterostructures grown by molecular beam epitaxy. The study follows a procedure of theoretical modeling, computer-aided design and simulation, sample growth, and measurements. READ MORE
