  1. 11. Lowcoordinated Silicon and Hypercoordinated Carbon : Structure and Stability of Silicon Analogs of Alkenes and Carbon Analogs of Silicates

    Author : Anders M. Eklöf; Henrik Ottosson; Sten Lunell; Thomas Müller; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; silenes; zwitterionic silenes; silenolates; reverse polarization; natural resonance theory; hypervalent carbon; hypercoordinated carbon; thermolysis; lowcoordinated silicon; Organic chemistry; Organisk kemi;

    Abstract : Quantum chemical studies on lowcoordinated group 14-16 compounds have been performed. This thesis focuses particularly on silenes influenced by reverse Siδ-=Cδ+ bond polarization. Hypercoordinated carbon compounds are also studied. READ MORE

  2. 12. Silicon-based Photonic Devices : Design, Fabrication and Characterization

    Author : Ziyang Zhang; Min Qiu; Thomas Koch; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Photonic Devices; Silicon Photonics; Parallel Computation; Nanofabrication; Electron Beam Lithography; Optical Characterisation; Optics; Optik;

    Abstract : The field of Information and Communication Technologies is witnessing a development speed unprecedented in history. Moore’s law proves that the processor speed and memory size are roughly doubling each 18 months, which is expected to continue in the next decade. READ MORE

  3. 13. 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

  4. 14. Silicon Carbide Microwave Devices

    Author : Joakim Eriksson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; SBD; high-power microwave devices; Silicon Carbide; diode mixer; wide band gap devices; physical simulations; resistive mixer; microwave devices; MESFET; Schottky diode;

    Abstract : This work deals with silicon carbide (SiC) microwave devices. It treats two devices; the Schottky diode and the metal semiconductor field effect transistor (MESFET). Different MESFET materials, fabrication processes, theoretical models for physical simulation, and device models are presented. READ MORE

  5. 15. Optical Properties of Single Silicon Quantum Dots
