  1. 1. Optical characterization of wide band gap materials by spectroscopic ellipsometry

    Author : O. P. Alexander Lindquist; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : Wide Band Gap materials; ellipsometry; SiC; GaN;

    Abstract : Spectroscopic ellipsometry has been employed in the study of wide band gap materials. Ellipsometry is based on the study of changes in the polarization state of light upon reflection on a surface. READ MORE

  2. 2. Magnetism in Band Gap Engineered Sputtered MgxZn(1-x)O Thin Films

    Author : Sreekanth Mahadeva; K Venkat Rao; Lyubov Belova; Mark Fox; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Magnetron co-sputtering; MgO; MgxZn 1-x O; MnxMg 1-x O; thin films; Room-temperature ferromagnetism; band gap engineering; and intrinsic defects;

    Abstract : This dissertation presents a comprehensive study of the intrinsic room temperature ferromagnetism, RTFM, in technologically important thin films of ZnO, MgO, Mg@ZnO, the so-called d0–magnets that do not contain any intrinsic magnetic elements. We also present the first report on magnetism in Mn doped MgO films fabricated by dc magnetron sputtering. READ MORE

  3. 3. Band gap engineering in Cu2ZnGexSn1-xS4 thin film solar cells

    Author : Nishant Saini; Charlotte Platzer-Bjorkman; Jes K Larsen; Edgardo Saucedo; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; CZTS; CZGTS; bandgap grading; ZTO; KCN-etching; titanium nitride; solar cell; Teknisk fysik med inriktning mot elektronik; Engineering Science with specialization in Electronics;

    Abstract : Photovoltaics based on kesterite Cu2ZnSnS4 (CZTS) has attracted interest as a sustainable alternative to other thin film technologies due to their tunable material properties and earth-abundance. However, the efficiency is limited to 12. READ MORE

  4. 4. Technology and properties of InP-based photonic crystal structures and devices

    Author : Naeem Shahid; Srinivasan Anand; Rob W. vad der Heijden; KTH; []
    Keywords : Integrated optics materials; Photonic crystals; Planar waveguides; Dispersion; Band-gap; Mode-gap; mini-stopband; InP; Nanostructure fabrication; dry etching; mass transport; material reflow; reliability; SRA - ICT; SRA - Informations- och kommunikationsteknik;

    Abstract : Photonic crystals (PhCs) are periodic dielectric structures that exhibit a photonic band gap; a range of wavelengths for which light propagation is forbidden. 2D PhCs exhibit most of the properties as their three dimension counterparts with a compatibility with standard semiconductor processing techniques such as epitaxial growth, electron beam lithography, Plasma deposition/etching and electromechanical lapping/polishing.
