  3. 3. Nanostructured Metal Oxide Semiconductors for Functional Applications

    Författare :Anton Landström; Isabella Concina; Alberto Vomiero; Caterina Soldano; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Experimentell fysik; Experimental Physics;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis is about nanostructured metal oxides, their properties, and some of their applications. Semiconducting metal oxides like TiO2, ZnO,and SnO2 have a wide band gap, which means they absorb UV light andgenerate electron-hole pairs. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Charge Separation on Localized Surface Plasmon and Hot Carrier Transfer to Semiconductors

    Författare :Yocefu Hattori; Jacinto Sá; Stephan Link; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Plasmonics; hot carrier; metal nanoparticles; semiconductors; ultrafast transient absorption spectroscopy; Chemistry with specialization in Physical Chemistry; Kemi med inriktning mot fysikalisk kemi;

    Sammanfattning : The relatively recent discovery that plasmonic nanoparticles generate energetic electron-hole pairs known as hot carriers has been the source of interest from many scientific groups. The capability to extract these short-lived hot carriers from metal nanoparticles (NPs) might potentially lead to applications in solar cells, photodetection, and photocatalysis. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Synthesis, Characterization and Applications of Metal Oxide Nanostructures
