  1. 1. Probing nonlinear electrical properties at the nanoscale : Studies in multifrequency AFM

    Författare :Riccardo Borgani; David B. Haviland; Peter Grütter; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Atomic Force Microscopy; Nonlinear dynamics; Multifrequency; Contact potential difference; Conductance; Fast dynamics; Fysik; Physics;

    Sammanfattning : Nanostructured materials promise great advances in diverse and active research fields such as energy harvesting and storage, corrosion prevention and high-density memories. Electrical characterization at the nanometer scale is key to understanding and optimizing the performance of these materials, and therefore central to the progress of nanotechnology. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Quantum effects in nanoscale Josephson junction circuits

    Författare :Silvia Corlevi; David B. Haviland; Jukka Pekola; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Josephson junctions; Josephson junction arrays; electromagnetic environment; Cooper pair transistor; parity effects; Physics; Fysik;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis presents the results of an experimental study on single-charge effects in nanoscale Josephson junctions and Cooper pair transistors (CPTs). In nanoscale Josephson junctions the charging energy EC becomes significant at sub-Kelvin temperatures and single-charge effects, such as the Coulomb blockade of Cooper pair tunneling, influence the transport properties.

    Sammanfattning : In this thesis we study strongly coupled pairs of spin vortices, in a configurationsuch that the cores attract while external fields act to pull them apart, with potential applications in magnetic random access memory (MRAM) and oscillators.Inertial decoupling of the cores has been studied and can be achieved with weak nanosecond pulses by the help of anharmonicity.
