  2. 1. Metamorphic Heterostructures and Lasers on GaAs

    Author : Ivar Tångring; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; metamorphic heterostructures; InGaAs quantum well; graded buffer layer; Semiconductor laser; GaAs; molecular beam epitaxy; telecom laser;

    Abstract : The objective of this thesis is to demonstrate the metamorphic growth of heterostructure lasers on GaAs substrates. Many heterostructure devices have their performance limited by the need to grow on lattice-matched substrates. READ MORE

    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; gravitation; relativity; quantum mechanics; classical mechanics; Mathematical and general theoretical physics; Fysik; Physics; High peak-to-valley ratio; Lateral confinement; Quantum dots; Resonant tunneling; Self-assembled quantum dots; Schottky depletion; Buried metal gate; Electron transport; Magnetic-field dependence; Energy level width; Tunneling transistors; Mode coupling; statistical physics; thermodynamics; Matematisk och allmän teoretisk fysik; klassisk mekanik; kvantmekanik; relativitet; statistisk fysik; termodynamik; Technological sciences; Teknik; Fysicumarkivet A:2001:Gustafson;

    Abstract : In the thesis, three-dimensionally confined resonant tunneling structures were studied experimentally. Two approaches were used for obtaining quantum confinement: gate-defined lateral constriction of double barrier structures, and epitaxial growth of self-assembled quantum dots. READ MORE

    Abstract : This thesis concerns different kinds of tunneling based devices all showing negative differential resistance. The thesis is divided in three parts, resonant tunneling transistors, Esaki diodes and coupled zero dimensional systems. READ MORE

  6. 4. Cryogenic InP High Electron Mobility Transistors in a Magnetic Field

    Author : Isabel Harrysson Rodrigues; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; magnetic field; cryogenic; low noise amplifier; angular dependence; InP HEMT; geometrical magnetoresistance;

    Abstract : The InGaAs-InAlAs-InP high electron mobility transistor (InP HEMT) is the preferred active device used in a cryogenic low noise amplifier (LNA) for sensitive detection of microwave signals. In this thesis it is demonstrated that the InP HEMT, when placed in a magnetic field, has a strong angular dependence in its output current. READ MORE

  7. 5. Spectroscopic studies of III-V semiconductors in two, one and zero dimensions

    Author : Dan Hessman; Fasta tillståndets fysik; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; InAs-InP; low-dimensional structures; quantum wells; quantum dots; quantum wires; k.p calculations; type-II; photoluminescence; V grooves; Stranski Krastanow; single dot spectroscopy; GaAs-InP; III-V semiconductors; Fysicumarkivet A:1996:Hessman; InAs-GaAs; GaInAs-InP; Halvledarfysik; InP-GaInP; Semiconductory physics;

    Abstract : In this thesis, spectroscopic studies of quantum wells (QWs), quantum wires (QWRs) and quantum dots (QDs) in III-V semiconductors are presented. The electronic structure of these low-dimensional structures have been studied by absorption, photocurrent, electroreflectance, photoluminescence (PL), and photoluminescence excitation (PLE) spectroscopy.
