  7. [Illinois] Atomic Engineering of III-V Semiconductor for Quantum Devices, from Deep UV (200 nm) to THZ (300 microns)

    03 Mar 2015 | Online Presentations | Contributor(s): Manijeh Razeghi

    Nature offers us different kinds of atoms. But it takes human intelligence to put different atoms together in an elegant way in order to realize manmade structures that is lacking in nature. This is especially true in III-V semiconductor material systems. Guided by highly accurate atomic band...

  8. Symmetry, Dimension, and Spin: Understanding transport in 2D 'phosphorene'

    03 Mar 2015 | Online Presentations | Contributor(s): Ian Appelbaum

    Despite its low atomic number and inversion symmetry, recent electronic measurements demonstrate that (group-IV) graphene has a greatly disappointing spin lifetime, corroborated by theory showing strong spin-flip scattering by flexural (out-of-plane) phonons. There exists a class of graphene-like...
