Using plastics or dyes like molecular semiconductors to make optoelectronic devices at low cost is a project in industry that is of great interest to the "Information Community" of this beginning of the 21st century. Some applications of this technology ha ...
This thesis presents the results of a concerted effort to understand the complex array of physical properties exhibited by the BaVS3 family of materials. As a 3d1 system, BaVS3 displays a unique collection of correlation-driven phenomena, including a metal ...
We present a theoretical study of the physical characteristics of metal/semiconductor junctions. Using first principle pseudopotential calculations, we have investigated the nature of electronic states with energies within the semiconductor band gap of rep ...
We present an overview of recent selective photoluminescence (PL) experiments on shallow levels in ZnSe and GaN. Through two electron transitions (TET) and electronic Raman scattering (ERS) investigations on solid phase recrystallized bulk ZnSe doped with ...
We investigate the phase diagram of the t−J model on a triangular lattice using a variational Monte Carlo approach. We use an extended set of Gutzwiller projected fermionic trial wave functions allowing for simultaneous magnetic and superconducting order p ...
We discuss the spectral signatures of strong electronic correlations and electron-phonon interactions in two representative low-dimensional systems. In the 2D compound 1T-TaSe2 a charge-density-wave (CDW) induces a narrowing of the conduction band, which t ...
We have investigated the doping mechanism of pentacene with iodine and its impact on the structure and on the electronic properties of single crystals, powders, and thin films in a large range of iodine concentration up to six iodine per pentacene (PEN) mo ...
We have used the finite element method to study the extraordinary magnetoresistance (EMR) effect of semiconductor-metal hybrid structures in rectangular device geometries. These have recently been found to exhibit intriguing properties interesting for magn ...
Electron spin resonance (ESR) measurements on SWCNTs doped with alkali atoms (potassium) using a solid state reaction is reported. We find the emergence of the ESR signal of itinerant electrons upon doping with a signal intensity that is comparable to that ...
We have fabricated hybrid structures consisting of a metallic thin film and of a microstructured two-dimensional electron system in an InAsheterostructure. The devices are found to exhibit a huge magnetoresistance(MR)effect in magnetic fields ⩽1 T . At low ...
