  1. 16. Leveraging HVPE for III-V/Si Integration and Mid-Infrared Photonic Device Fabrication

    Författare :Axel Strömberg; Yan-Ting Sun; Sebastian Lourdudoss; Mattias Hammar; Charles Cornet; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; HVPE; III-V Si; Photovoltaics; PEC; MIR; non-linear optics; QPM; QCL; Energiteknik; Energy Technology;

    Sammanfattning : This work covers the implementation of highly specialized epitaxial techniques enabled by the near-equilibrium hydride vapor-phase epitaxy growth process in III-V/Si integration for Si-based tandem solar cells and photoelectrochemical reactions, quasi phase matching GaP structures on GaAs substrates, and regrowth of InP:Fe on quantum cascade lasing structures.III-V/Si integration is an important topic in several fields of research with a significant one being solar energy harvesting.

  2. 17. Transport phenomena in quantum wells and wires in presence of disorder and interactions

    Författare :Valeria Vettchinkina; Matematisk fysik; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; time-dependent density-functional theory; disorder; electron correlation; Lowdimensional semiconducting systems; transport phenomena; Fysicumarkivet F:2012:Vettchinkina;

    Sammanfattning : Present-day electronics employ circuits of smaller and smaller dimensions, and today the length scales are so small that the laws of physics which rule micro-cosmos, quantum mechanics, become directly important. This thesis reports on theoretical work on electron transport in different nanostructures. LÄS MER

  3. 18. Cold-Electron Bolometer with Superconductor-Insulator-Normal Metal Tunnel Junctions

    Författare :Ian Jasper Agulo; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; temperature sensitivity; cryogenfree; power sensitivity; noise equivalent power; cold-electron bolometer; SIN tunnel junctions; electron cooling;

    Sammanfattning : The Cold-Electron Bolometer (CEB) is an ultrasensitive device designed for the detection of radiation in the terahertz region of the electromagnetic spectrum. The key to its sensitivity is the electron cooling of the absorber by the superconductor-insulator-normal metal (SIN) tunnel junction. LÄS MER

  4. 19. Ultra-thin Niobium Nitride Films for Hot Electron Bolometer and THz Applications

    Författare :Sascha Krause; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; HEB; ultra-thin NbN;

    Sammanfattning : The part of the electromagnetic spectrum between microwaves and infrared, also known as the terahertz band, is of particular interest for radio astronomy. The radiation intensity of the cold universe peaks at this frequency band, thus defining the demand on sensitive low-noise instruments in this particular frequency range. LÄS MER
