    Author : Qiu-Hong Hu; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Au; atom-probe fiels-ion microscopy; Schottky contact; interface; Ag; microstructure; transmission electron microscopy; GaAs; oxygen;

    Abstract : .... READ MORE

  2. 2. Schottky Contacs on Silicon Nanowires

    Author : Johan Piscator; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Silicon On Insulator SOI ; Schottky contacts; Palladium silicide; Silicon nanowire;

    Abstract : This thesis demonstrates the effect of charge on Schottky barrier height for metal contacts at the end surfaces of silicon nanowires. It is shown, by measurements and analytical models, how the effective electron barrier is lowered by a positive charge introduced into an oxide embedding the wire. READ MORE

  3. 3. Atom-Probe Field-Ion Microscopy of Electronic Materials

    Author : Qiu-Hong Hu; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Au GaAs; ohmic contact; superconductors; oxygen ordering; AuGe GaAs; defects; Ag GaAs; Schottky contact; YBa2Cu3O6 delta; APFIM;

    Abstract : This thesis presents work in which atom-probe field-ion microscopy (APFIM) has been applied to two types of electronic materials. In the case of metal/GaAs contacts, the purpose was to characterise the microstructure of the contact interface, particularly the chemical composition variation across the interface. READ MORE

  4. 4. Thermally stable electrical contacts to 6H silicon carbide

    Author : Nils Lundberg; Mikael Östling; Claude Jaussaud; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; I-V current -voltage ; C-V capacitance-voltage ; rectifying; ohmic; interface; silicide; carbide; epilayer; Schottky barrier height; current rectification ratio CRR ; specific contact resistivity; transmission line model TLM ; contact resistance; transfer length; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

    Abstract : Silicon Carbide (SiC) are at present being developed for use in high temperature (≥ 500◦C) and high-power environments under which conventional semiconductors can hardly perform.  Thermally stable electrical contacts are essential to the ability of SiC to function under such extreme conditions.

  5. 5. Design and characterisation of terahertz Schottky diode harmonic mixers

    Author : Divya Jayasankar; RISE Research Institutes of Sweden; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Schottky diodes; Phase locking; Harmonic mixers; Heterodyne receivers; Terahertz electronics; Frequency stabilisation; Frequency converters;

    Abstract : Efficient, compact, and reliable terahertz frequency converters preferably operating at ambient temperature are crucial for stabilising far-infrared optical sources. This thesis focuses on the design and characterisation of terahertz Schottky diode harmonic mixers for frequency stabilisation of quantum-cascade lasers. READ MORE
