Codeposition of hydrocarbons is a severe problem during focused electron beam writing of pure metal nanostructures. When using organometallic precursors, a low metal content carbonaceous matrix embedding and separating numerous nanosized metal clusters is ...
Irradiation-induced disordering of bulk Ni3Al under 6 MeV Ni2+ irradiation is studied at room temperature. A self-consistent long-range-order quantification method for ion-irradiated intermetallics is presented using cross-sectional sample preparation and ...
With specially designed micromechanical cantilevers we have measured the magnetization of two-dimensional electron systems formed in an integrated single-layered AlGaAs/GaAs heterojunction. In samples of different mobility we have observed sawtooth-like de ...
We discuss a novel approach to measure the electron phase-relaxation length and femtosecond lifetimes at surfaces. It relies on the study of the spatial decay of quantum interference patterns in the local density of states (LDOS) with the STM. The method h ...
A transmission electron microscopy study of a wide range of p-type GaN samples reveals that high Mg doping has a strong influence on the polarity of GaN. The main characteristic of Mg-doped metal organic vapour phase epitaxy (MOVPE) and bulk GaN is the pre ...
The charge transport in nanoporous ZnO was studied by laser flash induced photocurrent transients. The results are discussed using a diffusion model and compared with previous results on TiO2. The charge transport was highly dependent on the potential givi ...
We present experimental studies of the magnetization of electrons in semiconductorquantum dots. Starting from a modulation-doped AlGaAs/GaAs heterostructure an array of dots was patterned by laser-interference lithography and deep mesa etching. The quantum ...
We present a combined angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy and resistivity study of the model Fermi liquid system 1T-TiTe2. From the analysis of the quasiparticle spectral line shape we identify and separately evaluate the electron-electron. electron- ...
Space-charge effects (so-called negative-mass instability) as the reason for electron energy spread arising in the region of the electron drift between the cathode and the cavity of a gyrotron are discussed. Theoretical calculations are compared with resul ...
Space charge effects (so-called negative-mass instability) as the reason for electron energy spread developing in the region of the electron drift between the cathode and the cavity of a gyrotron are discussed. The quasioptical gyrotron working at third ha ...
