Development of Terahertz Photonic Crystal Quantum Cascade Lasers and Investigation on IIIV&SOI Photonic Structures at Near-Infrared Wavelength

Hua Zhang

Photonic crystals (PhC) are periodically structured electromagnetic media, in which light within some frequency ranges cannot propagate through the structure. Such frequency ranges are commonly referred as photonic band gaps (PBG). The length scale of the ...

Tunable and Broadband Nanostructured Photonic Devices

Pierre-Yves Baroni

The main topic of this thesis is the fabrication and characterization of structures smaller than the wavelength of light, for operation in the visible or near infrared spectral range. In the first part of this thesis, the fabrication of periodic structures ...

Three-dimensional electronic devices fabricated on a top-down silicon nanowire platform

Kirsten Emilie Moselund

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 ...
