  1. 26. Electronic Control of Flexural Nanowire Vibrations

    Författare :Fabio Santandrea; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Nanoelectromechanical systems; Carbon nanotubes; Coulomb blockade; Shuttle instability; Ground-state cooling;

    Sammanfattning : “Nanoelectromechanical systems” (NEMS) are nanometer-sized mechanical structures coupled to electronic devices of comparable size. The coupling between mechanical and electronic degrees of freedom, combined with their mesoscopic size, provide these systemswith some unique properties that make them interesting from both the fundamental and technological point of view.

  3. 27. Linear and Nonlinear Transport in Quantum Nanostructures

    Författare :Anneli Löfgren; Fasta tillståndets fysik; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; magnetoconductance; mesoscopic; electron billiard; quantum dot; quantum ratchets; non-linear; symmetries; non-symmetric conduction; rectification; artificial material; Halvledarfysik; Fysicumarkivet A:2002:Löfgren; ballistic transport; quantum transport; 2DEG; Semiconductory physics; InP InGaAs; GaAs AlGaAs;

    Sammanfattning : In this thesis, electron transport in mesoscopic semiconductor nanostructures, in particular so-called electron billiards or quantum dots, is studied. The thesis can be divided into two areas: the linear response regime of transport, and the nonlinear response regime of transport. LÄS MER

  4. 28. Development of Transmission Electron Microscopy Techniques for the Study of Thin Films

    Författare :John P. McCaffrey; Bender Hugo; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) is an invaluable tool for the study of the physics and materials properties of thin films. This thesis addresses innovations and novel applications of TEM to materials physics, and consists of three parts: the examination and development of innovative TEM sample preparation techniques, conventional selected area electron diffraction with new techniques for data extraction, and an extended TEM investigation of quantum dots.
