  1. 6. Detailed Balance in Quantum Dot Tunneling

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

    Author : Martin Plate; [2021]
    Keywords : thermodynamics; quantum dot; quantum tunneling; physics; solid state physics; nanoscience; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : Previously recorded data of electron tunneling in and out of a quantum dot (QD) is used to extract knowledge of the state of the system. Using the detailed balance of the system, it is shown that information about the electron temperature in the lead Te, as well as knowledge about the degeneracies of the states in a quantum dot can be obtained from measurements of the tunneling rates in and out of the QD.

  2. 7. Investigation of Resistive Random Access Memory for 1T1R Nanowire Array Integration

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

    Author : Orestes Theodoridis; [2020]
    Keywords : RRAM; Nanowire; Memory Technology; Nanoelectronics; Nanoscience; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : As modern electronics have started to reach its physical scaling limits, novel architectures and physics is needed to meet future demands. Oxide-based Resistive Random Access Memory (RRAM) is a new emerging technology that uses filament formation and rupture in thin oxides to generate resistive switching. READ MORE

  3. 8. The Production of Samarium-Cobalt Nanoparticles Using a Spark Discharge Generator

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

    Author : Timothy Lewis; [2019]
    Keywords : Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : In this project I attempt to press custom electrodes from Sm and Co powder using two different pressing tools. I investigate if custom electrodes can generate nanoparticles with tailored properties using a spark discharge generator (SDG). READ MORE

  4. 9. Fabrication and Characterization of Nano-Confined Pd Catalysts for CO Oxidation

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

    Author : Alfred Larsson; [2019]
    Keywords : Catalysis Palladium Nano Nanopore CO oxidation; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : During this thesis nanoporous alumina has been used as a template for the synthesis of nano-confined palladium structures. The nanoporous templates have been synthesized by anodization of aluminum and characterized using atomic force microscopy (AFM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS), resulting in good statistics of the pore diameter and interpore distance of these nanoporous structures.

  5. 10. Evaluation of light scattering and absorption in aerosol nanowires

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

    Author : Yoana Ilarionova; [2019]
    Keywords : nanoscience; nanowire; Mie scattering; scattering cross section; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : Numerical models of the optical properties of a single nanowire are essential for reproducing the results of the measurements and understanding the optical processes. Intuitively, the properties of a single finitely long nanowire would converge to the ones for an infinitely long nanowire if it is long enough. READ MORE
