For the past couple of decades the desire to add more complexity to a computer chip, while simultaneously reducing the cost per bit, has been accommodated by down-scaling. This approach has been extremely successful in the past, but like all good things it ...
Semiconductor nanowires are an emerging class of materials with great potential for applications in future electronic devices. The small footprint and the large charge-carrier mobilities of nanowires make them potentially useful for applications with high- ...
The structural and optical properties of three different kinds of GaAs nanowires with 100% zinc-blende structure and with an average of 30% and 70% wurtzite are presented. A variety of shorter and longer segments of zinc-blende or wurtzite crystal phases a ...
The topic of this dissertation is embedded into the new-born field of inorganic nanowires. The research was focused on zinc oxide (ZnO) nanowires, in particular, which besides posing fundamental questions in physics, promise broad range of applications. Zn ...
This paper reports on the design, fabrication and detailed characteristics of multi-gate vibrating-body field effect transistors (VB-FETs). Double-gate and four-gate VB-FETs with resonance frequencies of 2 MHz and 71 MHz, respectively, are successfully dem ...
Scaling of semiconductor devices has pushed CMOS devices close to fundamental limits. The remarkable success story of Moore's law during the last 40 years, predicting the evolution of electronic device performances related to miniaturization, has always be ...
In this paper the effect of varying temperature, pressure and chemical precursors on the vapour-liquid-solid (VLS) growth of silicon nanowires (Si NWs) have been investigated. Some aspects of nucleation and growth mechanisms are discussed. Control on Si NW ...
Semiconductor nanowires are an emerging class of nanostructures that represent attractive building blocks for nanoscale electronic and photonic devices. To the present, nanowires are synthesized on a small scale by experimentally demanding gas phase deposi ...
In order to obtain a sensor with force resolution better than 100 pN for biomolecular detection, U-shaped piezoresistive cantilevers made of crystalline silicon have been fabricated. The resistors have been defined by ionic implantation of As+, yielding a ...
We present a parallel, full wafer technique for deposition of catalyst on released scanning probe bodies for the growth of individual high aspect-ratio Si nanowire tips. 1-D probes are necessary for imaging high aspect-ratio nano-patterns, such as deep and ...
