  1. 11. Investigating Optical-Field-Induced Currents in GaN using Ultrafast Lasers

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Synkrotronljusfysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

    Author : Vidar Flodgren; [2019]
    Keywords : GaN; gallium nitride; nanoscience; material science; ultrafast lasers; Yb Laser; Pharos Laser; titanium sapphire laser; device fabrication; lift-off; gold etching; optical-field-induced currents; modelling; matlab; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : This study saw the development of an experimental setup capable of generating and measuring optical-field-induced currents in a variety of nanodevices fabricated specifically for this project. Each device design features two metallic contacts, closely separated by about 5 micrometers, deposited onto a semiconductor or insulator substrate. READ MORE

  2. 12. Molecular weight distribution, impact on morphology, crystallinity and mechanical properties

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Centrum för analys och syntes

    Author : Malin Petersen; [2018]
    Keywords : Molecular weight; Molecular weight distribution; isotactic Polypropylene; polymer technology; polymerteknologi; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : This master thesis is the result of cooperation between Lund University and Tetra Pak, performed by a student at Engineering Nanoscience, LTH. The aim is to explain how different molecular weights and molecular weight distribution of isotactic homo-polypropylene affect resulting properties. READ MORE

  3. 13. Quantum Dot Low Temperature Measurement and Analysis Thesis

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen; Lunds universitet/Fasta tillståndets fysik

    Author : Vidar Flodgren; [2017]
    Keywords : nanoscience; physics; quantum dots; electron transport; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : In this bachelor project, the electron transport within quantum dot transistor devices, whose barriers are electrostatically induced, was measured and analysed. The properties of devices with this particular architecture are not yet fully understood. READ MORE

  4. 14. High Accuracy Relative Luminescence Quantum Yield Measurements of Upconverting Nanoparticles

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen; Lunds universitet/Atomfysik

    Author : Björn Thomasson; [2016]
    Keywords : Upconverting Nanoparticles; Biomedical imaging; Luminescence tomography; Luminescence imaging; Engineering; Physics; Engineering Physics; Photonics; Cancer; Cancer detection; Cancer diagnostics; Laser Engineering; quantum yield; imaging; upconverting; Biophotonics; Single Point Tomography; Relative Luminescence Quantum Yield Measurements; Energy transfer upconversion; Nanoscience; Luminescence; Imaging of biological tissue; Upconversion; Beam profile evaluation; Beam profile; UCNP; UCNPs; Nanoparticles; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The name Upconverting nanoparticles refers to a novel category of luminescence emitters that are capable of generating visible luminescence upon excitation with noncoherent and longer wavelength monochromatic near-infrared light, at excitation fluence rates as low as 1-103 W/cm2. This unique optical behaviour is of great interest to researchers as it could potentially allow for virtually autofluorescence free luminescence imaging of living tissue. READ MORE

  5. 15. Characterization of single InP Nanowire-based Avalanche Photodetectors

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen; Lunds universitet/Fasta tillståndets fysik

    Author : Virginia Boix De La Cruz; [2016]
    Keywords : Photodetectors; Nanotechnology; Nanowires; IndiumPhosphide; Semiconductors; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : Nanoscience is an emerging field of technology where the bottom-up fabrication techniques are utilized instead of the traditional top-down approaches for enhancing the performance of di erent optoelectronic devices. One such material is a semicon- ductor nanowire (NW) which holds immense potential in nanophotonic applications, such as solar cells, LEDs, lasers, sensors and photodetectors. READ MORE
