  2. 1. Nanowires for Cell Research

    Author : Waldemar Hällström; Fasta tillståndets fysik; []
    Keywords : Nanotoxicology; Nanowires; Nanotubes; Nerve Cells; Cell Probing; Force Measurements; Nanotechnology; Axonal Guidance; Fysicumarkivet A:2010:Hällström;

    Abstract : This study explores the interaction between living biological cells and semiconductor nanowires. Biological cells are highly complex and dynamic entities, every one of them with individual characteristics and a high degree of internal and external communication. READ MORE

  4. 2. Nanofabricated Devices Based on Molecular Motors: Biosensing, Computation and Detection

    Author : Mercy Lard; Fasta tillståndets fysik; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; biocomputing; actin; hollow nanowires; molecular concentration; molecular motors; nano-biosensor; myosin; nano-fabrication; nanowires; Fysicumarkivet A:2014:Lard;

    Abstract : The thesis describes the use of molecular motors in nanofabricated devices designed for potential applications in biosensing, computation and detection. We utilize the well-established guiding principles for controlling the motion of actin filaments propelled by myosin molecular motors, and build upon these developments in order to improve upon previously demonstrated techniques, and establish new methods that, we believe, offer significant progress in these fields.

  5. 3. Theory of electronic structure and transport in heterostructure nanowires

    Author : Florinda Viñas Boström; NanoLund: Centre for Nanoscience; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; electronic structure; electron transport; nano; quantum; InAs; GaSb; topological; nanowires; quantum dots; Fysicumarkivet A:2020:Vinas Boström;

    Abstract : Today, semi-conductor nanowires can be grown with very high precision, using epitaxy. This allows for studies of new nanowire-based quantum devices, likely to be part of novel quantum technologies in the future. This thesis concerns nanostructures based on InAs nanowires. READ MORE

  6. 4. Tunable Nanomaterials and their Applications for Terahertz Devices : Carbon Nanotubes and Silver Nanowires

    Author : Serguei Smirnov; Dmitri Lioubtchenko; Joachim Oberhammer; Hartmut Roskos; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : The interest in terahertz (THz) technologies is growing in academia and industry. The design of electronic components at THz frequencies is relevant to application areas such as telecommunication, radar, material spectroscopy, and medical imaging and diagnosis. READ MORE

  7. 5. Nanotools for biosensing and manipulating cells

    Author : Therese Johansson; NanoLund: Centre for Nanoscience; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Fysicumarkivet A:2024: Johansson;

    Abstract : In medical research and within the field of Biology, it is important to find effective tools for probing and manipulating cells, as well as tools for detecting biomolecules. These tools should be sensitive, with high specitivity, and, if aimed at interacting with cells, they should be minimally invasive. READ MORE
