  2. 1. Carrier Lifetime Relevant Deep Levels in SiC

    Author : Ian Don Booker; Einar Sveinbjörnsson; Erik Janzén; Anthony Peaker; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Silicon carbide; Deep level transient spectroscopy; Deep level; Carrier lifetime; Time-resolved photoluminescence;

    Abstract : Silicon carbide (SiC) is currently under development for high power bipolar devices such as insulated gate bipolar transistors (IGBTs). A major issue for these devices is the charge carrier lifetime, which, in the absence of structural defects such as dislocations, is influenced by point defects and their associated deep levels.

  4. 2. 4H-SiC epitaxy investigating carrier lifetime and substrate off-axis dependence

    Author : Louise Lilja; Peder Bergman; Jawad ul-Hassan; Ulrike Grossner; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : Silicon carbide (SiC) is a wide bandgap semiconductor with unique material properties making it useful for various device applications using high power, high frequency and high temperature. Compared to Si-based electronics, SiC based electronics have an improved energy efficiency. READ MORE

  5. 3. Screening of oxygen-carrier particles based on iron-, manganese-, copper- and nickel oxides for use in chemical-looping technologies

    Author : Marcus Johansson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Oxygen Carrier; Carbon Dioxide Capture; Chemical-Looping Combustion; Chemical-Looping Reforming; Nickel Oxide; Iron Oxide; Copper Oxide; Manganese Oxide;

    Abstract : Capture and storage of carbon dioxide from combustion will likely be used in the future as a method of reducing emissions of greenhouse gases and thus be part of the overall strategy to stabilize the atmospheric levels of CO2. Chemical-looping combustion is a method of combustion where CO2 is inherently separated from the non-condensable components in the flue gas without the need for an energy intensive air separation unit.

  6. 4. Carrier Dynamics in Single Luminescent Silicon Quantum Dots

    Author : Fatemeh Sangghaleh; Jan Linnros; Canham Leigh; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Bulk silicon as an indirect bandgap semiconductor is a poor light emitter. In contrast, silicon nanocrystals (Si NCs) exhibit strong emission even at room temperature, discovered initially at 1990 for porous silicon by Leigh Canham. READ MORE

  7. 5. Charge carrier dynamics in colloidal quantum dots: Tracking the dance of electrons and holes by ultrashort laser pulses

    Author : Nils Lenngren; Kemisk fysik; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; CdSe; quantum dots; ultrafast spectroscopy; charge carrier dynamics;

    Abstract : Quantum dots (QDs) are semiconductor nanocrystals with quantum confinement. This thesis uses various time-resolved spectroscopic techniques to study ultrafast charge carrier dynamics in colloidal CdSe quantum dots that are important both from a theoretical point of view and for their relevance for solar cell applications.
