  2. 16. Thermodynamics of Hydrogen in Confined Lattice

    Author : Xin Xiao; Hjörvarsson Björgvin; Max Wolff; Astrid Pundt; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; thermodynamics hydrogen superlattice;

    Abstract : Three of the most important questions concerning hydrogen storage in metals are how much hydrogen can be absorbed, how fast it can be absorbed (or released) and finally how strongly the hydrogen is bonded. In transition metals hydrogen occupies interstitial sites and the absorption as well as desorption of hydrogen can be fast. READ MORE

  4. 17. Novel Materials and Technologies for IR Optoelectronic Applications

    Author : Yuxin Song; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; GaSbBi; dilute bismide; InAs GaSb type-II superlattice; metamorphic; InSbBi; alloy graded buffer; threading dislocation; infrared; molecular beam epitaxy;

    Abstract : This thesis focuses on novel III-V materials (InAs/GaSb type-II superlattices, T2SL, and dilute bismides) and metamorphic growth techniques for infrared optoelectronics all of which may find wide spread applications in telecommunication, energy harvesting and saving, sensing and imaging. Mid-wavelength infrared (MWIR) and long-wavelength infrared (LWIR) photodetectors at the atmospheric windows of 3-5 and 8-12 µm, respectively, are currently dominated by HgCdTe and quantum well infrared photodetectors.

  5. 18. Sputter Deposition, Mechanical Properties, and Thermal Stability of Nitride Based Superlattices

    Author : Carolina Engström; Helmut Holleck; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : Investigations concerning deposition, mechanical properties and thermal stability of nitride-based superlattice films have been performed. X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy techniques were adopted for microstructural characterization, while nanoindentation hardness and abrasive wear resistance measurements were utilized for evaluation of mechanical properties.

  6. 19. Single-crystal Mo/V superlattices : growth, structure, and hydrogen uptake

    Author : Jens Birch; Jan-Erik Sundgren; Bruce M Clemens; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Fundamental studies concerning the growth, structural characterization and hydrogen uptake of single-crystal (00 l )-oriented Mo/V superlattices have been performed. The superlattices were grown by dual-target magnetron sputtering in pure Ar-atmosphere < 6·10-3 Torr on (001)-oriented MgO substrates. READ MORE

  7. 20. On the Growth and Properties of InAs/Ga1-xInxSb Superlattices and Related Materials

    Author : Jöran H. Roslund; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; molecular-beam epitaxy; InAs Ga1-xInxSb superlattices; envelope-function calculations; lattice-mismatched semiconductors; Si-doping of Ga1-xInxSb; type-II superlattices;

    Abstract : InAs/Ga1-xInxSb semiconductor superlattices and their constituent materials have been studied theoretically, grown by molecular-beam epitaxy and characterised by various techniques. InAs/Ga1-xInxSb superlattices are interesting for use in far-infrared detectors because of their narrow band gaps. READ MORE
