Download or read book Exploring the Electronic Landscape at Interfaces and Junctions in Semiconductor Nanowire Devices with Subsurface Local Probing of Carrier Dynamics written by Terrence McGuckin and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The solid state devices that are pervasive in our society, are based on building blocks composed of interfaces between materials and junctions that manipulate how charge carriers behave in a device. As the dimensions of these devices are reduced to the nanoscale, surfaces and interfaces play a larger role in the behavior of carriers in devices and must be thoroughly investigated to understand not only the material properties but how these materials interact. Separating the effects of these different building blocks is a challenge, as most testing methods measure the performance of the whole device. Semiconductor nanowires represent an excellent test system to explore the limits of size and novel device structures. The behavior of charge carriers in semiconductor nanowire devices under operational conditions is investigated using local probing technique electron beam induced current (EBIC). The behavior of locally excited carriers are driven by the forces of drift, from electric fields within a device at junctions, surfaces, contacts and, applied voltage bias, and diffusion. This thesis presents the results of directly measuring these effects spatially with nanometer resolution, using EBIC in Ge, Si, and complex heterostructure GaAs/AlGaAs nanowire devices. Advancements to the EBIC technique, have pushed the resolution from tens of nanometers down to 1 to 2 nanometers. Depth profiling and tuning of the interaction volume allows for the separating the signal originating from the surface and the interior of the nanowire. Radial junctions and variations in bands can now be analyzed including core/shell hetero-structures. This local carrier probing reveals a number of surprising behaviors; Most notably, directly imaging the evolution of surface traps filling with electrons causing bandbending at the surface of Ge nanowires that leads to an enhancement in the charge separation of electrons and holes, and extracting different characteristic lengths from GaAs and AlGaAs in core/shell nanowires. For new and emerging solid state materials, understanding charge carrier dynamics is crucial to designing functional devices. Presented here are examples of the wide application of EBIC, and its variants, through imaging domains in ferroelectric materials, local electric fields and defects in 2D semiconductor material MoS2, and gradients in doping profiles of solar cells. Measuring the local behavior of carrier dynamics, EBIC has the potential to be a key metrology technique in correlative microscopy, enabling a deeper understanding of materials and how they interact within devices.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Intelligent materials are emerging composite functional materials that have boomed since the 1990s. The intelligent material system, involving a multitude of structures and functions, combines studies that explore nature, mimic nature and surpass nature. It also provides novel ideas, new theories, and cutting-edge methodologies for the innovation of science and technology. Thus, mimicking the micro/nanostructures and functions found in nature will build a bridge between biology and technology, which may provide inspirations for solving today's technological problems. This book gives a complementary introduction about natural and artificial micro/nanoscale interfacial materials, devoting largely to the intelligent materials with special wettabilities. Inspired by nature, the authors proposed a concept of "binary cooperative complementary micro/nanoscale interfacial materials". Based on this design concept, the contact and coupling of heterogeneous materials will result in novel properties on the surface or interface of materials, which may create new functional materials and devices. This book combines popular science and professional knowledge, which will be suitable for not only researchers but also science lovers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 2001 Spring Meeting of the 65th Deutsche Physikalische Gesellschaft was held together with the 65. Physikertagung, in Hamburg, during the pe riod March 26 30 2001. With more than 3500 conference attendees, a record has again been achieved after several years of stabilisation in participation. This proves the continuing and now even increasing, attraction of solid state physics, especially for young colleagues who often discuss for the first time their scientific results in public at this meeting. More than 2600 scientific pa pers were presented orally, as well as posters, among them about 120 invited lectures from Germany and from abroad. This Volume 41 of "Advances in Solid State Physics" contains the written versions of half of the latter. We nevertheless hope that the book truly reflects the current state of the field. Amazingly enough, the majority of the papers as well as the discussions at the meeting, concentrated on the nanostructured solid state. This re flects the currently extremely intensive quest for developing the electronic and magnetic device generations of the future, which stimulates science be sides the challenge of the unknown as has always been the case since the very beginning of Solid State Physics about 100 years ago.

Book excerpt: Over the course of the last thirty years, the investigation of objects at the nano scale has rocketed. Nanoscale scientific research has not only powerfully affected the amount and orientation of knowledge, it has perhaps even more significantly redirected the ways in which much research work is carried out, changed scientists' methodology and reasoning processes, and influenced aspects of the structure of career trajectory and the functioning of scientific disciplines. This book identifies key historical moments and episodes in the birth and evolution of nanoscience, discusses the novel repertory of epistemological concerns of practitioners, and signals sociological propensities. As Galileo's telescope explored the moon's surface four hundred years ago, nano instrumentation now makes it possible to see the surface of single molecules. Moreover, practitioners are able to manipulate individual atoms and molecules at will to produce pre-designed synthetic materials, non-existent in nature. The combinatorial of heightened observational capacity and the tailoring of synthetic artificial materials exhibiting hitherto novel physical properties has widened and transformed the worlds of scientific knowledge and technical artefact. This book invites the question: to what extent does nanoscale scientific research constitute a kind of 'scientific revolution'?
