| Title | Layered Two-Dimensional Heterostructures and Their Tunneling Characteristics |
| Author(s) | de la Barrera, Sergio C |
| Publication | Cham, Springer International Publishing, 2017. |
| Description | XVII, 141 p. 55 illus., 48 illus. in color : online resource |
| Abstract Note | This thesis demonstrates that layered heterostructures of two-dimensional crystals graphene,??hexagonal boron nitride, and transition metal dichalcogenides provide new and interesting??interlayer transport phenomena. Low-energy electron microscopy is employed??to study the surface of atomically thin WSe2 prepared by metal-organic chemical??vapor deposition on epitaxial graphene substrates, and a method for unambiguously??measuring the number of atomic layers is presented. Using very low-energy electrons to probe the surface of similar heterostructures, a relationship between extracted??work function differences from the layers and the nature of the electrical contact between??them is revealed. An extension of this analysis is applied to surface studies??of MoSe2 prepared by molecular beam epitaxy on epitaxial graphene. A large work??function difference is measured between the MoSe2 and graphene, and a model is??provided which suggests that this observation results from an exceptional defect density??in the MoSe2 film. The thesis expounds a theory for computing tunneling currents between??two-dimensional crystals separated by a thin insulating barrier; a few situations??resulting in resonant tunneling and negative differential resistance are illustrated by??computed examples, as well as observed characteristics, for monolayer and bilayer??graphene tunneling junctions and transistors |

| Title | Non-Classical Crystallization of Thin Films and Nanostructures in CVD and PVD Processes |
| Author(s) | Hwang, Nong Moon |
| Publication | Dordrecht, Springer Netherlands, 2016. |
| Description | XII, 332 p. 229 illus., 64 illus. in color : online resource |
| Abstract Note | This book provides a comprehensive introduction to a recently-developed approach to the growth mechanism of thin films and nanostructures via chemical vapour deposition (CVD). Starting from the underlying principles of the low pressure synthesis of diamond films, it is shown that diamond growth occurs not by individual atoms but by charged nanoparticles. This newly-discovered growth mechanism turns out to be general to many CVD and some physical vapor deposition (PVD) processes. This non-classical crystallization is a new paradigm of crystal growth, with active research taking place on growth in solution, especially in biomineralization processes. Established understanding of the growth of thin films and nanostructures is based around processes involving individual atoms or molecules. According to the author???s research over the last two decades, however, the generation of charged gas phase nuclei is shown to be the rule rather than the exception in the CVD process, and charged gas phase nuclei are actively involved in the growth of films or nanostructures. This new understanding is called the theory of charged nanoparticles (TCN). This book describes how the non-classical crystallization mechanism can be applied to the growth of thin films and nanostructures in gas phase synthesis. Based on the author???s graduate lecture course, the book is aimed at senior undergraduate and graduate students and researchers in the field of thin film and nanostructure growth or crystal growth. It is hoped that a new understanding of the growth processes of thin films and nanostructures will reduce trial-and-error in research and in industrial fabrication processes |

| Title | Surface Plasmon Resonance Sensors : A Materials Guide to Design, Characterization, Optimization, and Usage |
| Author(s) | Oliveira, Leiva Casemiro;Lima, Antonio Marcus Nogueira;Thirstrup, Carsten;Neff, Helmut Franz |
| Publication | Cham, Springer International Publishing, 2019. |
| Description | XIV, 326 p. 406 illus., 233 illus. in color : online resource |
| Abstract Note | This significantly extended second edition addresses the important physical phenomenon of Surface Plasmon Resonance (SPR) or Surface Plasmon Polaritons (SPP) in thin metal films, a phenomenon which is exploited in the design of a large variety of physico-chemical optical sensors. In this treatment, crucial materials aspects for design and optimization of SPR sensors are investigated and described in detail. The text covers a selection of nanometer thin metal films, ranging from free-electron to the platinum-type conductors, along with their combination with a large variety of dielectric substrate materials, and associated individual layer and opto-geometric arrangements. Whereas the first edition treated solely the metal-liquid interface, the SP-resonance conditions considered here are expanded to cover the metal-gas interface in the angular and wavelength interrogation modes, localized and long-range SP's and the influence of native oxidic ad-layers in the case of non-noble metals. Furthermore, a selection of metal grating structures that allow SP excitation is presented, as are features of radiative SP's. Finally, this treatise includes as-yet hardly explored SPR features of selected metal???metal and metal???dielectric superlattices. An in-depth multilayer Fresnel evaluation provides the mathematical tool for this optical analysis, which otherwise relies solely on experimentally determined electro-optical materials parameters |

| Title | Narrow Plasmon Resonances in Hybrid Systems |
| Author(s) | Thomas, Philip A |
| Publication | Cham, Springer International Publishing, 2018. |
| Description | XVII, 114 p. 49 illus., 37 illus. in color : online resource |
| Abstract Note | Advances in understanding the interactions between light and subwavelength materials have enabled the author and his collaborators to tailor unique optical responses at the nanoscale. In particular, metallic nanostructures capable of supporting surface plasmons can be designed to possess spectrally narrow plasmon resonances, which are of particular interest due to their exceptional sensitivity to their local environment. In turn, combining plasmonic nanostructures with other materials in hybrid systems allows this sensitivity to be exploited in a broad range of applications. In this book the author explores two different approaches to attaining narrow plasmon resonances: in gold nanoparticle arrays by utilising diffraction coupling, and in copper thin films covered by a protective graphene layer. The performance of these resonances is then considered in a number of applications. Nanoparticle arrays are used along with an atomic heterostructure as elements in a nanomechanical electro-optical modulator that is capable of strong, broadband modulation. Strong coupling between diffraction-coupled plasmon resonances and a gold nanoparticle array and guided modes in a dielectric slab is used to construct a hybrid waveguide. Lastly, the extreme phase sensitivity of graphene-protected copper is used to detect trace quantities of small toxins in solution far below the detection limit of commercial surface plasmon resonance sensors |

| Title | Quantitative Mapping of Nanothermal Transport via Scanning Thermal Microscopy |
| Author(s) | Spi??ce, Jean |
| Publication | Cham, Springer International Publishing, 2019. |
| Description | XIX, 153 p. 95 illus., 76 illus. in color : online resource |
| Abstract Note | The thesis tackles one of the most difficult problems of modern nanoscale science and technology - exploring what governs thermal phenomena at the nanoscale, how to measure the temperatures in devices just a few atoms across, and how to manage heat transport on these length scales. Nanoscale heat generated in microprocessor components of only a few tens of nanometres across cannot be effectively fed away, thus stalling the famous Moore's law of increasing computer speed, valid now for more than a decade. In this thesis, Jean Spi??ce develops a novel comprehensive experimental and analytical framework for high precision measurement of heat flows at the nanoscale using advanced scanning thermal microscopy (SThM) operating in ambient and vacuum environment, and reports the world???s first operation of cryogenic SThM. He applies the methodology described in the thesis to novel carbon-nanotube-based effective heat conductors, uncovers new phenomena of thermal transport in two- dimensional (2D) materials such as graphene and boron nitride, thereby discovering an entirely new paradigm of thermoelectric cooling and energy production using geometrical modification of 2D materials |

| Title | Growth of High Permittivity Dielectrics by High Pressure Sputtering from Metallic Targets |
| Author(s) | Pampill??n Arce, Mar??a ??ngela |
| Publication | Cham, Springer International Publishing, 2017. |
| Description | XXIII, 164 p. 116 illus., 6 illus. in color : online resource |
| Abstract Note | This thesis describes the fabrication of metal-insulator-semiconductor (MIS) structures using very high permittivity dielectrics (based on rare earths) grown by high-pressure sputtering from metallic targets. It demonstrates the possibility of depositing high permittivity materials (GdScO3) by means of high pressure sputtering from metallic targets using in situ plasma oxidation on Si and indium phosphate (InP) substrates. The advantage of this system is the high working pressure, which causes the particles to undergo multiple collisions and become thermalized before reaching the substrate in a pure diffusion process, thus protecting the semiconductor surface from damage. This work presents a unique fabrication using metallic targets and involving a two-step deposition process: a thin metallic film is sputtered in an Ar atmosphere and this film is then plasma oxidized in situ. It also demonstrates the fabrication of GdScO3 on Si with a permittivity value above 30 from metallic Gd and Sc targets. Since co-sputtering was not possible, a nanolaminate of these materials was deposited and annealed. The electrical properties of these devices show that the material is highly interesting from a microelectronic integration standpoint |

| Title | Quantum Dots for Quantum Information Processing: Controlling and Exploiting the Quantum Dot Environment |
| Author(s) | Sch??tz, Martin J. A |
| Publication | Cham, Springer International Publishing, 2017. |
| Description | XVII, 199 p. 51 illus., 8 illus. in color : online resource |
| Abstract Note | This thesis offers a comprehensive introduction to surface acoustic waves in the quantum regime. It addresses two of the most significant technological challenges in developing a scalable quantum information processor based on spins in quantum dots: (i) decoherence of the electronic spin qubit due to the surrounding nuclear spin bath, and (ii) long-range spin-spin coupling between remote qubits. Electron spins confined in quantum dots (QDs) are among the leading contenders for implementing quantum information processing. To this end, the author pursues novel strategies that turn the unavoidable coupling to the solid-state environment (in particular, nuclear spins and phonons) into a valuable asset rather than a liability |
