  1. 1. Building crystals out of crystals : Synthesis, structure and magnetic properties of iron oxide nanoparticles and self-assembled mesocrystals

    Författare :Erik Wetterskog; Lennart Bergström; Markus Niederberger; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; iron oxide; nanoparticle; synthesis; self-assembly; characterization; electron microscopy; scattering; magnetic properties; Materials Chemistry; materialkemi;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis is focused on the fabrication and characterization of self-assembled arrays of magnetic iron oxide (Fe3O4, γ-Fe2O3 and Fe1-xO) nanoparticles. The synthesis of spherical and cubic iron oxide nanocrystals, with sizes between 5 and 30 nm and narrow size distributions, is demonstrated, along with a rigorous morphological characterization of the cubic nanoparticles.

  2. 2. Complex Oxide Photonic Crystals

    Författare :Dzmitry Dzibrou; Alex Grishin; Peter Lazor; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Photonic crystals; magneto-optical effects; refractive index; iron garnet; Optics; Optik;

    Sammanfattning : Microphotonics has been offering a body of ideas to prospective applicationsin optics. Among those, the concept of photonic integrated circuits (PIC’s) has recently spurred a substantial excitement into the scientific community. Relisation of the PIC’s becomes feasible as the size shrinkage of the optical elements is accomplished. LÄS MER

  3. 3. InP-based photonic crystals : Processing, Material properties and Dispersion effects

    Författare :Audrey Berrier; Srinivasan Anand; Alfred Forchel; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Photonic crystals; indium phosphide; photonic bandgap; Bloch modes; slow light; dispersion; coupled cavity waveguides; chemically assisted ion beam etching; lag effect; cavities; optical losses; carrier transport; carrier lifetimes; negative refraction; photonic bandstructure; Physics; Fysik;

    Sammanfattning : Photonic crystals (PhCs) are periodic dielectric structures that exhibit a photonic bandgap, i.e., a range of wavelength for which light propagation is forbidden. The special band structure related dispersion properties offer a realm of novel functionalities and interesting physical phenomena. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Liquid Crystals in Guided Wave Optics

    Författare :Giusy Scalia; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; antiferroelectric liquid crystals; fully-leaky guided mode; ortho-conics; waveguide; liquid crystals; anisotropy;

    Sammanfattning : Liquid crystals are unique optical materials due to their large effective electrooptic and opto-optic coefficients. Currently, liquid crystals are primarily used in flat-panel dis-plays, but there is also an increasing number of nondisplay applications requiring new types of devices employing materials with unique optical properties.
