  1. 6. On-chip terahertz characterisation of liquids

    Författare :Juan Cabello Sánchez; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; dielectric permittivity; Through-Reflect-Line TRL calibration; vector network analyzers VNA ; terahertz spectroscopy; isopropyl alcohol IPA ; coplanar waveguides CPW ; water; on-wafer measurements; planar Goubau line; Chip; liquids; microfluidic channels; scattering parameters; material properties;

    Sammanfattning : Spectroscopy at terahertz frequencies can be used in a wide range of applications including radio-astronomy, pharmaceutical manufacturing control, and the study of processes in molecular biology. Biomolecular samples should preferably be studied in their native environment, water, however, water poses extreme attenuation for THz-frequency waves, deteriorating or even impeding analysis using these waves.

  2. 7. Planar-Goubau-line components for terahertz applications

    Författare :Juan Cabello Sánchez; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; planar Goubau line; Through-Reflect-Line TRL calibration; stopband filter; on-wafer measurements; vector network analyzers VNA ; silicon membrane; power divider; Impedance-matched load; terahertz spectroscopy; microfluidic channels;

    Sammanfattning : Terahertz-wave technology has a broad range of applications, including radio astronomy, telecommunications, security, medical applications, pharmaceutical quality control, and biological sensing. However, the sources, detectors, and components are less efficient at this frequency band due to parasitic effects and increased total losses, which hinder the performance of terahertz systems.

  3. 8. Modeling Quantum Cascade Lasers : The Challenge of Infra-Red Devices

    Författare :Martin Franckie; Matematisk fysik; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Quantum Cascade Lasers; Non-equilibrium Green s functions; Modeling; semiconductor heterostructures; Quantum Cascade Lasers; Non-equilibrium Green s functions; THz radiation; infrared radiation; semiconductor heterostructures; Modeling Simulation Technology; Fysicumarkivet A:2016:Franckié;

    Sammanfattning : We live in a time of rapid scientific and technological advancement. People liv- ing 100 years ago could never dream of inventions like those having completely changed our way of life, and our perception of the world; computers, mobile phones, the Internet, space travel, unraveling the mysteries of the early universe and distant galaxies, and our insight into the microscopic world of quantum phe- nomena.

  4. 9. Vertical III-V Semiconductor Devices

    Författare :Tomas Bryllert; Fasta tillståndets fysik; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Halvledarfysik; Semiconductory physics; heterostructure barrier varactor frequency multiplier; field effect transistor; resonant tunneling; artificial molecule; terahertz; nanowire; Quantum dots;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis is based on three projects that deal with vertical III-V semiconductor devices. The work spans over basic research as well as more applied aspects of III-V semiconductor technology. All projects have in common that they rely on advanced epitaxial growth to form the starting material for device fabrication. LÄS MER

  5. 10. Electromagnetic Field Induced Out-of-Equilibrium Structural Dynamics in Protein Crystals: From Picoseconds to Milliseconds

    Författare :Viktor Ahlberg Gagnér; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Terahertz radiation; low frequency vibrations; B-factors; ADP tensor; bovine trypsin; FemtoMAX; resampling; femtosecond structural dynamics; millisecond structural dynamics; LCLS; displacements; distances; photosynthetic reaction center;

    Sammanfattning : Light-induced interactions in biomolecules are strongly varying over different model systems. Most amino acids and proteins absorb ultraviolet light, but only a few with specialised chromophores or fluorophores, are able to absorb light in the visible spectrum. LÄS MER
