1. Theoretical study of electronic structure and optical properties of semiconductor nanostructures
Sammanfattning : In this thesis, the electronic structure and optical properties of semiconductor nanostructures are studied theoretically. Three types of nanostructures have been studied, silicon nanocrystals, free-standing III-V nanowires and free-standing GaAs/AlGaAs nanowire superlattices. LÄS MER
2. Electron Transport in Low Dimensional Systems
Sammanfattning : This thesis consists of experimental studies of transport properties in high mobility two dimensional electron gases (2DEGs). Two material systems are used, an AlGaAs/GaAs heterojunction and a GaInAs/InP quantum well. LÄS MER
3. Atomic Scale Design of Clean Energy Materials : Efficient Solar Energy Conversion and Gas Sensing
Sammanfattning : The focus of this doctoral thesis is the atomic level design of photocatalysts and gas sensing materials. The band gap narrowing in the metal oxides for the visible-light driven photocatalyst as well as the interaction of water and gas molecules on the reactive surfaces of metal oxides and the electronic structure of kaolinite has been studied by the state-of-art calculations.

4. Electronic structure and optical properties of PbY and SnY (Y=S, Se, and Te)
Sammanfattning : Lead chalcogenides and tin chalcogenides and their alloys are IV−VI family semiconductors with unique material properties compared with similar semiconductors. For instance, PbY (Y = S, Se, and Te) are narrow-gap semiconductors with anomalous negative pressure coefficient and positive temperature coefficient. LÄS MER
5. An rf-sputtering system and applications to amorphous zinc telluride films
Sammanfattning : This thesis describes the fabrication and study of amorphous zinc telluride films. Their behaviour on post thermal treatments including crystallization are investigated. LÄS MER
