  2. 6. Near-infrared photodetectors based on Si/SiGe nanostructures

    Author : Anders Elfving; Wei-Xin Ni; Thomas P. Pearsall; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; SiGe; Ge dots; nanostructures; molecular beam epitaxy; photodetector; Semiconductor physics; Halvledarfysik;

    Abstract : Two types of photodetectors containing Ge/Si quantum dots have been fabricated based on materials grown by molecular beam epitaxy and characterized with several experimental techniques. The aim was to study new device architectures with the implementation of Ge nanostructures, in order to obtain high detection efficiency in the near infrared range at room temperature. READ MORE

  5. 8. Scanning Tunneling Microscopy Induced Luminescence Studies of Semiconductor Nanostructures

    Author : Ulf Håkanson; Fasta tillståndets fysik; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; transmission electron microscopy TEM ; III-V semiconductors; low-dimensional structures; nanostructures; single dot spectroscopy; Stranski-Krastanow; quantum dot QD ; Semiconductory physics; polarization; ordering; InP; GaInP; photon mapping; scanning tunneling microscopy STM ; scanning tunneling luminescence STL ; Halvledarfysik; Fysicumarkivet A:2003:Håkanson;

    Abstract : This thesis treats scanning tunneling luminescence (STL) investigations of semiconductor nanostructures. The STL technique combines scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) with detection of photons, induced by the tunneling electrons. The high spatial resolution in STM and the local excitation allow for optical investigations on the nanometer-scale. READ MORE

  6. 9. Metal Oxide Thin Films and Nanostructures Made by ALD
