Copper and Palladium NWs for Hydrogen Peroxide detection

2018

H2O2 is a wide used chemical in different field, like in paper and textile industries and pharmaceutical applications. Furthermore, H2O2 concentration in human body is related to glucose concentration because the reaction between glucose and glucosidase produce hydrogen peroxide [1] . Moreover, is used as a biomarker of oxidative stress, being an oxidative specie [2] . For all these reasons, researcher all over the world are working to develop new and novel strategies for in situ, non-invasive and fast detection of this chemical. One of these fields concern the electrochemical sensors, that are sensors with an electrical (current, potential, impedance) output. The surface area the electrode…

Characterisation of single semiconductor nanowires by non-destructive spectroscopies

2015

Los nanohilos semiconductores (NWs, de su nombre inglés, nanowires) tienen una amplia gama de aplicaciones en el campo de la optoelectrónica (emisores de luz y diodos láser), nano-electrónica (circuitos lógicos y transistores de efecto de campo), y detección y producción de energía (células solares). En términos generales, los NWs pueden ser descritos como nanoestructuras de forma alargada con diámetros que van típicamente de decenas a cientos de nanómetros, y con longitudes que oscilan desde pocas hasta las decenas de micras. Dicha morfología ofrece dos ventajas principales en comparación con las capas: su alta relación superficie-volumen y su mayor calidad cristalina, ambas beneficiosas p…

Intrinsic spin-orbit interaction in diffusive normal wire Josephson weak links: Supercurrent and density of states

2016

We study the effect of the intrinsic (Rashba or Dresselhaus) spin-orbit interaction in superconductor–nanowire–superconductor (SNS) weak links in the presence of a spin-splitting field that can result either from an intrinsic exchange field or the Zeeman effect of an applied field. We solve the full nonlinear Usadel equations numerically [The code used for calculating the results in this paper is available in https://github.com/wompo/Usadel-for-nanowires] and analyze the resulting supercurrent through the weak link and the behavior of the density of states in the center of the wire. We point out how the presence of the spin-orbit interaction gives rise to a long-range spin triplet supercurr…

Optical Properties of III-V Nanowires and Their Application for Charge Transport and Single-Photon Emission

2012

This work covers the optical characterization of III-V semiconductor nanowires and their application for charge transport and for single-photon emission. InAs nanowires have been investigated by Raman scattering and PL spectroscopy. The possibility to grow nanowires with a crystal structure different from its bulk counterpart has aroused a lot of interest in their optical and electronic properties. Here, the optical phonon modes of wurtzite InAs nanowires have been studied by polarized Raman scattering. For the first time, Raman measurements on a single InAs nanowire have revealed the A1(TO) and E2h optical phonon modes of the wurtzite structure. Additional resonant Raman scattering experim…

Template Fabrication of Nano-Structures using Anodic Alumina Membranes

2007

The influence of experimental parameters on the morphology of the porous structure and on the formation kinetics has been investigated for anodic alumina membranes (AAM) grown in aqueous H3PO4 at 160 V. It was found that pore aspect ratio and membrane porosity on the solution-side surface are influenced by tensiostatic charge, bath temperature and the presence of Al3+ ions in solution. Morphological and kinetic data, recorded in different conditions, give useful information on the growth mechanism of pore channels in phosphoric acid solution. Nickel nano-structures have been fabricated using AAM as ternplate.

Semiconductors: Growth and Characterization

2018

Semiconducting materials are widely used in several applications such as photonics, photovoltaics, electronics and thermoelectrics, because of their optical and electro-optical features. The fundamental and technological importance of these materials is due to the unique physical and chemical properties. Over the years, numerous methods have been developed for the synthesis of high efficient semiconductors. Besides, a variety of approach and characterization methods have been used to study the numerous and fascinating properties of the semiconducting materials. This book collects new developments about semiconductors, from the fundamental issues to the synthesis and applications. Special at…

Hydrogeologinen WSN-ympäristömonitorointi : tapaustutkimus Kaitforsin patoalueen pohjavesien korkeusseurannan pilottijärjestelmästä

2017

Tämän pro gradu -tutkielman tavoitteena on selvittää Kaitforsin patoalueelle toteutetun pohjavesien monitorointiin Kokkolan yliopistokeskus Chydeniuksessa kehitetyn pilottijärjestelmän näkökulmasta, millaisin menetelmin vedenkorkeuksien ja veden laadun monitorointia voidaan IoT:n ja langattomien sensoriverkkojen asettamista lähtökohdista automatisoidusti suorittaa. Tämän lisäksi tutkimuksen tavoitteena on selvittää automatisoidun ympäristömonitoroinnin nykytilaa ja siihen kytkeytyviä kehityssuuntauksia. Tutkimuksessa perehdytään myös Kaitforsin patoalueelle asennetun pilottijärjestelmän IEEE 802.15.4 -standardiin perustuvaan langattoman sensoriverkon toimintaan ja siihen kytkeytyneiden sens…
