   Abstract : Silicon nanowires (SiNW) are in the spotlight for a few years in the research community as a good candidate for biosensing applications. This is attributed to their small dimensions in nanometer scale that offers high sensitivity, label-free detection and at the same time utilizing small amount of sample. READ MORE

   Abstract : In this thesis, we first demonstrate that a disordered superconductor with high kinetic inductance can realise a microwave low-loss, non-dissipative circuit element with impedance greater than the quantum resistance. This element, known as a superinductor, can suppress the fluctuations of charge in a quantum circuit. READ MORE

7. 10. Nanowire Transistors and RF Circuits for Low-Power Applications

   Author : Karl-Magnus Persson; Institutionen för elektro- och informationsteknik; []
   Keywords : InAs; Nanowire; Metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor; MOSFET; RF; Mixer; Circuit; 1 f-noise; Simulation; Modelling;

   Abstract : The background of this thesis is related to the steadily increasing demand of higher bandwidth and lower power consumption for transmitting data. The work aims at demonstrating how new types of structures, at the nanoscale, combined with what is referred to as exotic materials, can help benefit in electronics by lowering the consumed power, possibly by an order of magnitude, compared to the industry standard, silicon (Si), used today.
