  1. 11. Nanowire Heterostructures- Growth, Characterization and Optical Physics

    Author : Niklas Sköld; Fasta tillståndets fysik; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; nano; Nanowire; photoluminescence; epitaxy; quantum dot;

    Abstract : This thesis describes growth, processing, characterization and photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy of nanowire heterostructures. The nanowires were made of III-V semiconductor materials and were produced by Au-particle assisted growth. READ MORE

  2. 12. Thermoelectric experiments on nanowire-based quantum dots

    Author : Artis Svilans; NanoLund: Centre for Nanoscience; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Quantum dots; Nanowire; Thermoelectric; Maximum power; Efficientcy; Carnot; Kondo effect; Fysicumarkivet A:2018:Svilans;

    Abstract : This thesis experimentally investigates the possibilities of using quantum effects in semiconductor nanostructures for engineering their thermoelectric properties. More specifically, heterostructured InAs/InP nanowires are used to create short InAs quantum dots (QDs) with electronic state structure resembling that found in atoms. READ MORE

  3. 13. Vertical III-V Nanowire Tunnel Field-Effect Transistor

    Author : Elvedin Memisevic; Nanoelektronik; []
    Keywords : Transistor; TFET; Steep slope; Nanowire; III-V materials; HSQ; Vertical; InAs; GaSb; MOSFET;

    Abstract : In this thesis fabrication and optimization of vertical III-V Tunneling Field-Effect transistors was explored. Usage of vertical nanowires, allows for combination of materials with large lattice mismatch in the same nanowire structure. READ MORE

  4. 14. III-V Nanowire Solar Cells: Growth and Characterization

    Author : Gaute Otnes; Fasta tillståndets fysik; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Nanowire; Solar cell; Photovoltaic; Metal organic vapor phase epitaxy; Nanoimprint lithography; Electron beam induced current; Current-voltage characteristics; Doping; Fysicumarkivet A:2018:Otnes;

    Abstract : To mitigate dangerous climate change, a transition to a new and sustainable energy system is needed. In this system, solar energy will need to be a key player. Prices of electricity made from solar cells have declined rapidly over the recent decades, making solar energy competitive in more markets. READ MORE

  5. 15. Atomic Scale Characterization of III-V Nanowire Surfaces

    Author : Johan Knutsson; NanoLund: Centre for Nanoscience; []
    Keywords : III–V semiconductor materials; nanowire; surface; scanning tunneling microscopy; wurtzite; zinc blende; scanning tunneling spectroscopy; Fysicumarkivet A:2017:Knutsson;

    Abstract : This dissertation focus on the atomic-scale characterization of the surface properties and electronic structure of III–V semiconductor nanowires (NWs). Since the early 2000s, the fabrication and characterization of III–V NWs has been a very significant topic within material science due to their potential for applications in lighting, energy harvesting, and electronics.
