Effect of Native Oxide on Stress in Silicon Nanowires: Implications for Nanoelectromechanical Systems

Yusuf Leblebici, Zuhal Tasdemir, Mohammad Nasr Esfahani

Understanding the origins of intrinsic stress in Si nanowires (NWs) is crucial for their successful utilization as transducer building blocks in next-generation, miniaturized sensors based on nanoelectromechanical systems (NEMS). With their small size lead ...

SiNx and AlOx Nanolayers in Hole Selective Passivating Contacts for High Efficiency Silicon Solar Cells

Audrey Marie Isabelle Morisset, Xinya Niu

The recombination of photogenerated charge carriers at metal-semiconductor interfaces remains a major source of efficiency loss in photovoltaic cells. Here, we present SiNx and AlOx nanolayers as promising interface dielectrics to enable high efficiency ho ...

A new characterization approach to study the mechanical behavior of silicon nanowires

Yusuf Leblebici, Zuhal Tasdemir, Mohammad Nasr Esfahani, Mustafa Yilmaz

This work proposes a new approach to characterize the mechanical properties of nanowires based on a combination of nanomechanical measurements and models. Silicon nanowires with a critical dimension of 90 nm and a length of 8 mu m obtained through a monoli ...

SPRINGER HEIDELBERG2021

Progress in nanotechnology, including fabrication and characterization tools, opened up the unprecedented low dimensional materials era, where we can manipulate and structure matter on a size scale that we could not reach before. Due to many interesting pr ...

Silicon Nanowires for Biosensing

Giovanni De Micheli, Sandro Carrara, Francesca Puppo

Over the past 20 years, nanomaterials, such as quantum dots, nanoparticles, nanowires(NWs), nanotubes, and graphene, have received enormous attention due to their suitable properties for designing novel nanoscale biosensors. Nanomaterials are very small st ...

Measuring carrier injection from amorphous silicon into crystalline silicon using photoluminescence

Gizem Nogay, Philipp Friedrich Hermann Löper

In devices with intrinsic amorphous silicon layer on a crystalline silicon substrate, the light absorbed in the amorphous layer can be weakly electronically coupled into the silicon base. Such carrier injection has previously been reported from measurement ...

Piezoresistivity characterization of silicon nanowires through monolithic MEMS

Yusuf Leblebici, Mohammad Nasr Esfahani

This paper presents a monolithic approach for the integration of silicon nanowires (Si NWs) with microelectromechanical systems (MEMS). The process is demonstrated for the case of co-fabrication of Si NWs with a 10-μm-thick MEMS on the same silicon-on-insu ...
