Book Synthesis  Electrical and Optical Characterization of Semiconductor Nanowires

Download or read book Synthesis Electrical and Optical Characterization of Semiconductor Nanowires written by Xianwei Zhao and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 141 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: Over the past 15 years, nanowires (NWs) and nanotubes have drawn great attention since the application of VLS growth mechanism into the synthesis of one dimensional structures. Semiconductor nanowires exhibit novel electrical and optical properties. With a broad selection of composition and band structures, these one-dimensional semiconductor nanostructures are considered to be the critical components in a wide range of potential nanoscale device applications. To fully exploit these one-dimensional nanostructures, current research has focused on synthetic control of one-dimensional nanoscale building blocks, characterization of their novel properties, device fabrication based on nanowire building blocks, and integration of nanowire elements into complex functional architectures. Progress has been made in past two decades. However, there are still challenges in NWs growth controls, such as size, shape, position, stoichiometry and defects. Due to the dimensionality and possible quantum confinement effects of nanowires, there are also challenges in characterization and device fabrication. A systematic study of controlled growth of nanowires has been conducted in this dissertation. The first part of this dissertation presents various synthesis techniques of semiconductor nanowires via metal catalyzed vapor-liquid-solid (VLS) growth mechanism. Pulse laser deposition (PLD) with arsenic over pressure method has been successfully utilized for GaAs nanowires. Challenges such as uniformity issue commonly seen in MOCVD and MBE systems, morphology and stoichiometry issues commonly seen in conventional PLD systems have been overcome. Si nanowires fabrication via ultrahigh vacuum magnetron sputtering has reported for the first time, which also provides an alternate route for Si nanowires synthesis. The second part of this dissertation discusses optical properties of ensemble direct band gap nanowires. Photoluminescence spectra have been measured on an ensemble of random orientated InP nanowires. Polarization anisotropy has been explored on ensemble nanowires and oxide-coated nanowires. Our calculation for randomly oriented nanowires agrees well with experimental results. The control of polarization anisotropy of nanowires is realized by coating nanowires with an oxide layer composed of matching dielectric constant media. This opens a path to optical spin injection and detection on direct band gap nanowires.

Book Characterization of Semiconductor Heterostructures and Nanostructures

Download or read book Characterization of Semiconductor Heterostructures and Nanostructures written by Giovanni Agostini and published by Newnes. This book was released on 2013-04-11 with total page 829 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Characterization of Semiconductor Heterostructures and Nanostructures is structured so that each chapter is devoted to a specific characterization technique used in the understanding of the properties (structural, physical, chemical, electrical etc..) of semiconductor quantum wells and superlattices. An additional chapter is devoted to ab initio modeling. The book has two basic aims. The first is educational, providing the basic concepts of each of the selected techniques with an approach understandable by advanced students in Physics, Chemistry, Material Science, Engineering, Nanotechnology. The second aim is to provide a selected set of examples from the recent literature of the TOP results obtained with the specific technique in understanding the properties of semiconductor heterostructures and nanostructures. Each chapter has this double structure: the first part devoted to explain the basic concepts, and the second to the discussion of the most peculiar and innovative examples. The topic of quantum wells, wires and dots should be seen as a pretext of applying top level characterization techniques in understanding the structural, electronic etc properties of matter at the nanometer (and even sub-nanometer) scale. In this respect it is an essential reference in the much broader, and extremely hot, field of Nanotechnology. Comprehensive collection of the most powerful characterization techniques for semiconductors heterostructures and nanostructures Most of the chapters are authored by scientists that are world-wide among the top-ten in publication ranking of the specific field Each chapter starts with a didactic introduction on the technique The second part of each chapters deals with a selection of top examples highlighting the power of the specific technique to analyse the properties of semiconductors heterostructures and nanostructures

Book Fabrication and Characterization of Semiconductor Nanowires

Download or read book Fabrication and Characterization of Semiconductor Nanowires written by Colm O'Regan and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2016-01-15 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One-dimensional semiconductor nanowires are considered to be promising materials for future nanoelectronic applications. However, before these nanowires can be integrated into such devices, a thorough understanding of their growth behaviour is necessary. In particular, methods that allow the control over nanowire growth are deemed especially important, as it is these methods that will enable the control of nanowire dimensions such as length and diameter. The production of nanowires with high-aspect ratios is vital in order to take advantage of the unique properties experienced at the nanoscale, thus allowing us to maximise their use in next-generation electronics. Additionally, the development of low-resistivity interconnects is desirable in order to connect such nanowires in multi-nanowire components. Consequently, this book aims to discuss the synthesis and characterisation of semiconductor nanowires and metal interconnects, as they apply to future electronics applications.
