6. Microscopic Theory of Charge Complexes in Atomically-Thin Materials
Abstract : Atomically-thin materials have emerged as the most promising two-dimensional platform for future optoelectronic applications and for the study of quantum many-body physics. In particular, transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) exhibit strong Coulomb interaction, resulting in the formation of tightly-bound electron-hole complexes that dominate optics, dynamics, and transport.

7. Modeling Vibrational Electron Energy Loss Spectroscopy with the Frequency-Resolved Frozen Phonon Multislice Method
Abstract : Aberration correctors, improved monochromators, and better detectors have enabled exciting research with nanometer- and Ångstrom-scale resolution in the Scanning Transmission Electron Microscope (STEM). However the interaction of high-energy electrons with the many-body system of the sample is quite complex and hinders interpretation of experiments. READ MORE

8. Time-Resolved Diffraction Studies of Structural Dynamics in Solids
Abstract : Studies of the structural dynamics of solids can improve our understanding of atomic motion in materials, and may thus help in the manufacture of new devices or the development of materials with novel structures and properties. Ultrashort laser pulses, a few tens of femtoseconds long, can deliver high energies (mJ–kJ). READ MORE

9. Low-frequency noise characterization, evaluation and modeling of advanced Si- and SiGe-based CMOS transistors
Abstract : A wide variety of novel complementary-metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) devices that are strong contenders for future high-speed and low-noise RF circuits have been evaluated by means of static electrical measurements and low-frequency noise characterizations in this thesis. These novel field-effect transistors (FETs) include (i) compressively strained SiGe channel pMOSFETs, (ii) tensile strained Si nMOSFETs, (iii) MOSFETs with high-k gate dielectrics, (iv) metal gate and (v) silicon-on-insulator (SOI) devices.

10. Effects of disorder in metallic systems from First-Principles calculations
Abstract : In this thesis, quantum-mechanical calculations within density-functional theory on metallic systems are presented. The overarching goal has been to investigate effects of disorder. In particular, one of the properties investigated is the bindingenergy shifts for core electrons in binary alloys using different theoretical methods. READ MORE
