1. Preparation and characterisation of refractory whiskers and selected alumina composites
Sammanfattning : A whisker is a common name of single crystalline inorganic fibre of small dimensions, typically 0.5-1 μm in diameter and 20-50 μm in length. Whiskers are mainly used as reinforcement of ceramics. This work describes the synthesis and characterisation of new whisker types. LÄS MER
2. Carbothermal synthesis of transition metal carbide and carbonitride whiskers via a Vapour-Liquid-Solid (VLS) growth mechanism
Sammanfattning : A route for the synthesis of TiC, TiCyN1-y, TaxTi1-xC and TaxTi1-xCyN1-y whiskers via a carbothermal Vapour-Liquid-Solid (VLS) growth mechanism, yielding 70-90 vol.% whiskers, has been established. The whiskers were uniform in diameter (0.3-0. LÄS MER
3. Thermodynamic modelling of composition and crystal structure of ternary nanowires
Sammanfattning : An analytic expression for the composition of a ternary solid material nucleating from a quaternary liquid melt has been derived. This theory has been applied to Au-catalyzed and self-catalyzed, nucleation limited VLS growth of ternary III-V nanowires. LÄS MER
4. Epitaxial Growth, Processing and Characterization of Semiconductor Nanostructures
Sammanfattning : This thesis deals with the growth, processing and characterization of nano-sized structures, eg., self-assembled quantum dots and nano-wires. LÄS MER
5. InP/GaInP Nanowires for Tandem Junction Solar Cells : Growth, Processing, and Characterization
Sammanfattning : Semiconductor nanowire solar cells have achieved comparable efficiency to their planar counterparts with substantial reduction of material consumption. Tandem geometry is a path towards even higher efficiency. However, extensive studies are needed to reach this goal. LÄS MER
