Towards an Integrated Graphene Nano-Opto-Electro-Mechanical System
Micro-electromechanical systems (MEMS) have found extensive applications in micromechanical
sensing. The scaling of MEMS into nano-electromechanical systems (NEMS) was spurred
primarily by the expectation of higher ...
Multiscale Modeling of Quantum Transport in 2D Material Based MoS Transistors
Atomically thin 2D materials have ushered in a new era in the fi eld of nano-science and tech-
nology and have been translated to notable advancements in the design of sensors, optoelectronic
devices, exible electronics. ...
Investigation of Buffer Design and Carbon doping in AlGaN/GaN HEMTs for High Breakdown Voltages
III-nitride HEMTs are strong contenders for next-generation power electronic applications. The superior material and electrical properties render GaN-based transistors suitable for high-power switching. The material ...
Nanopore Based Single-molecule Sensors
In the past two decades nanopores have been used as highly sensitive
detection systems for exploring the properties of analytes at single molecule
resolution. The small dimensions of a nanopore permit the molecule of ...
Normally off AlxGa(1-x)N/GaN devices: Materials, process and device architecture innovations
AlxGa(1-x)N/GaN HEMTs find applications in power electronics systems as high-frequency power switches. The formation of a highly mobile 2 dimensional electron gas (2DEG) at a heterointerface in an otherwise insulating wide ...
Band-matched transport layers and intrinsically stable perovskite solar cells for application to perovskite Si tandem cells
Hybrid perovskite/silicon tandem solar cells offer low-cost alternatives to the commercially established silicon solar cells. In this thesis, we present the material and device optimizations of the subcells that can be ...
Droplet Interface Oscillations using Electrowetting-on-Dielectric (EWOD) for Open-Chip Microfluidic Applications
Droplet manipulation on microfluidic platform has gained significant importance
due to its applicability to various healthcare technologies, where larger
equipment can be reduced to portable handheld systems based on ...
Multiplexing Nanoplasmonic Sensors
Complex biological samples such as serum contain thousands of proteins and other molecules spanning up to 13 orders of magnitude in concentration. Present measurement techniques such as protein microarrays and quantum dot ...
Fabrication and Characterization of Nanostructured Antibacterial Surfaces
Bacterial antibiotic resistance is becoming wide spread due to the excessive and unregulated use of antibiotics in healthcare and agriculture. At the same time the development of new antibiotics has become slow. Adding ...
Resistive Switching and Electron Transport In Perovskite Oxide Thin Films
This work deals with the Resistive Switching (RS) properties of various perovskite oxides probed in a simple Metal - Insulator - Metal (M-I-M) configuration. The metals comprise of platinum which served as the bottom ...
