  2. 1. Optical Studies of Periodic Microstructures in Polar Materials

    Author : Herman Högström; Carl Gustaf Ribbing; Clivia M. Sotomayor Torres; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : Engineering physics; polaritonic; polar; photonic crystal; surface phonon polariton; multilayer; Reststrahlen; SiC; SiO2; Teknisk fysik;

    Abstract : The optical properties of matter are determined by the coupling of the incident electromagnetic radiation to oscillators within the material. The oscillators can be electrons, ions or molecules. Close to a resonance the dielectric function exhibits strong dispersion and may be negative. READ MORE

  4. 2. Structural and elastic properties of InN and InAlN with different surface orientations and doping

    Author : Mengyao Xie; Vanya Darakchieva; Jens Birch; Enrique Calleja; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Group–III nitrides, InN, GaN, AlN, and their alloys, have revolutionized solid state lighting and continue to attract substantial research interest due to their unique properties and importance for optoelectronics and electronics. Among the group–III nitrides, InN has the lowest effective electron mass and the highest electron mobility, which makes it suitable for high–frequency and high power devices. READ MORE

  5. 3. Near-Field Radiative Heat Transfer between Plasmonic Nanostructures

    Author : Jin Dai; Min Yan; Philippe Ben-Abdallah; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Fysik; Physics; Energy Technology; Energiteknik;

    Abstract : Radiative heat transfer (RHT) due to coupled electromagnetic near field scan significantly exceed that dictated by Planck’s law. Understanding such phenomenon is not only of fundamental scientific interest, but also relevant to a broad range of applications especially connected to nanotechnologies. READ MORE

  6. 4. Properties of small Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8 intrinsic Josephson junctions: confinement, flux-flow and resonant phenomena

    Author : Sven-Olof Katterwe; Vladimir M. Krasnov; Alexey Ustinov; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; high-temperature superconductivity; intrinsic Josephson junctions; tunneling; fluxons; flux-flow oscillator; THz-emission; cavity resonances; polaritons; micro nano-fabrication; fysik; Physics;

    Abstract : In this thesis, intrinsic Josephson junctions, naturally formed in the strongly anisotropic high-temperature superconductor Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8 (Bi-2212), are studied experimentally. For this purpose, small mesa structures are fabricated on the surface of single crystals using micro- and nano-fabrication tools, focused ion beam is used to reduce the area of the mesa-structures down to ≈ 1 × 1 μm2.
