  1. 6. Transport in nanowire-based quantum dot systems: Heating electrons and confining holes

    Författare :Sven Dorsch; NanoLund: Centre for Nanoscience; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Nanowire; Quantum dot; double quantum dot; Thermoelectric effect; Phonon-assisted transport; GaSb; g-factor; Fysicumarkivet A:2022:Dorsch;

    Sammanfattning : Quantum dots embedded in an electronic circuit allow precise control over the charge transport behaviour of the system: Charge carriers can be individually trapped or precisely shuffled between a series of quantum dots in a strictly sequential manner. This introduces ideal conditions to study fundamental quantum physics and such devices are in the focus of extensive efforts to develop quantum information related applications. LÄS MER

  2. 7. Quantum technologies for secure communications

    Författare :Junior Ricardo Gonzales Ureta; Ana Predojević; Marcus Huber; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Quantum technologies; quantum information; quantum optics; Physics; fysik;

    Sammanfattning : Quantum technologies promise to revolutionize a variety of fields such as metrology, cryptography or computing, among others. The resources that quantum mechanics offers allow us to design faster optimization algorithms, to improve security in communications, and to measure quantities beyond the grasp of current technology.

  3. 8. Quantum Dot Solar Cells: Towards Environmentally Friendly Materials

    Författare :Viktor A. Öberg; Erik Johansson; Muhammet S. Toprak; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Quantum dots; Nano-crystals; Energy conversion; Solar cells; Quantum dot solar cells; Low toxicity; Silver Sulfide; Silver Bismuth Sulfide; Lead Sulfide; Chemistry with specialization in Physical Chemistry; Kemi med inriktning mot fysikalisk kemi;

    Sammanfattning : To decrease the world’s energy dependence on fossil fuels, energy production and specifically electricity production needs to shift to more sustainable alternatives. One such alternative is solar cells as they directly convert energy emitted from the sun into electricity. LÄS MER

  4. 9. Quantum electronic transport in low-dimensional semiconductors

    Författare :Heiner Linke; Fasta tillståndets fysik; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; quantum transport; two-dimensional electron gas; contact-free characterisation; ballistic transport; mesoscopic; electron billiard; quantum dot; electron-electron interaction; non-linear; phase breaking; Halvledarfysik; Fysicumarkivet A:1997:Linke; non-symmetric conductio; Semiconductory physics; low-dimensional structures;

    Sammanfattning : Electronic transport is studied at low temperatures in two-dimensional electron gases (2DEGs) and in mesoscopic semiconductor microstructures. The method of microwave-detection of the Shubnikov-de Haas effect for the contact-free characterisation of transport properties of 2DEGs is explored using both magnetic-field modulation and light-induced carrier modulation.

  5. 10. Luminescent Silicon Nanocrystals: From Single Quantum Dot to Light-harvesting Devices

    Författare :Jingjian Zhou; Ilya Sychugov; Jan Linnros; Peter Schall; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; silicon quantum dots; photoluminescence; quantum yield; internal quantum efficiency; luminescent solar concentrator; Optics and Photonics; Optik och fotonik;

    Sammanfattning :       Silicon (Si) serves as the basic material of the system-on-a-chip industry and photovoltaic panels nowadays. This is mostly thanks to its high abundance in the earth’s crust, thereby low cost, virtually non-toxicity, and superior stability. LÄS MER
