In this thesis we study the electronic structure of different two-dimensional (2D) electron systems with angular resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES). This technique is based on the photoelectric effect and directly probes the electronic structure o ...
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 ...
Boron vacancies at the Si( 111):B-root 3 surface are model systems in the comprehension of strongly correlated semiconductor surfaces. By using scanning tunneling spectroscopy, the origin of the single-vacancy electronic structure is addressed. It is shown ...
The Hall coefficient RH of the cuprate superconductor YBa 2Cu3Oy was measured in magnetic fields up to 60 T for a hole concentration p from 0.078 to 0.152 in the underdoped regime. In fields large enough to suppress superconductivity, RH(T) is seen to go f ...
A high frequency (111.2-420 GHz) electron spin resonance study of the interlayer spin diffusion is presented in the conducting phases of the layered organic compounds, kappa-( BEDT-TTF)(2)Cu[N(CN)(2)]X (kappa-ET2-X), X = Cl or Br. The interlayer spin cross ...
In conductor-insulator nanocomposites in which conducting fillers are dispersed in an insulating matrix, the electrical connectedness is established by inter-particle tunneling or hopping processes. These systems are intrinsically non-percolative and a coh ...
The transient optical conductivity of photoexcited 1T-TaS2 is determined over a three-order-of-magnitude frequency range. Prompt collapse and recovery of the Mott gap is observed. However, we find important differences between this transient metallic state ...
Colossal magnetoresistance (CMR) and colossal electroresistance (CER) induced by the electric field in spinel multiferroic CdCr2S4 are reported. It is found that a metal-insulator transition in CdCr2S4 is triggered by the electrical field. In magnetic fiel ...
We present a new method to engineer the charge carrier mobility and its directional asymmetry in epitaxial graphene by using metal cluster superlattices self-assembled onto the moiré pattern formed by graphene on Ir(111). Angle-resolved photoemission spect ...
An anisotropic magnetorheological composite formed by dispersions of silver-covered magnetite microparticles (Fe3O4@Ag) in polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) displaying electrical conduction only in one preferred direction is presented. A set-up for applying and ...
