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- ...
We develop a model for carrier generation by impact ionization in graphene, which shows that this effect is non-negligible because of the vanishing energy gap, even for carrier transport in moderate electric fields. Our theory is applied to graphene field ...
Over the recent decades, the balance between increasing the complexity of computer chips and simultaneously reducing cost per bit has been accommodated by down-scaling. While extremely successful in the past, this approach now faces grave limitations leadi ...
Performance improvement by device scaling has been the prevailing method in the semiconductor industry over the past four decades. However, current silicon transistor technology is approaching a fundamental limit where scaling does not improve device perfo ...
Graphene antidot lattices (GALs) offer an attractive approach to band-gap engineering in graphene. Theoretical studies indicate that the size of the opened gap is sensitive to the shape, size, and architecture of the nanoholes introduced into the graphene ...
With transistors set to reach their smallest possible size in the next decade, the silicon chip is likely to change dramatically, or be replaced entirely. The transistor industry's path which has been largely shaped by Gordon Moore's famous prediction that ...
High-temperature superconductivity in copper oxides arises when a parent insulator compound is doped beyond some critical concentration; what exactly happens at this superconductor–insulator transition is a key open question1. The cleanest approach is to t ...
The increase of components density in advanced microelectronics is practically dictated by the device size and the achievable pitch between the devices. Scaling down dimensions of devices and progress in the circuit design allowed following Moore's law dur ...
We present here a scanning photocurrent microscopy study of individual graphene nanoribbons, revealing pronounced photocurrent responses close to the nanoribbon/metal contacts. The magnitude of the corresponding photocurrent signal was found to be directly ...
This thesis aims at the site-specific realization of self-assembled field-effect transistors (FETs) based on semiconducting Zinc oxide NWs and their application towards chemical and bio-sensing in liquid medium. At first, a solution based growth method for ...
