  2. Physics of Nanoscale Transistors: An Introduction to Electronics from the Bottom Up

    10 Sep 2008 | | Contributor(s):: Mark Lundstrom

    Transistor scaling has pushed channel lengths to the nanometer regime, and advances in nanoscience have opened up many new possibilities for devices. To realize these opportunities, our traditional understanding of electronic devices needs to be complemented with a new perspective that begins...

  3. Plasmonic Nanophotonics: Coupling Light to Nanostructure via Plasmons

    03 Oct 2005 | | Contributor(s):: Vladimir M. Shalaev

    The photon is the ultimate unit of information because it packages data in a signal of zero mass and has unmatched speed. The power of light is driving the photonicrevolution, and information technologies, which were formerly entirely electronic, are increasingly enlisting light to communicate...

  4. Plastic Deformation at Micron and Submicron Scales

    28 Nov 2007 | | Contributor(s):: Marisol Koslowski

    Most people experiences the way objects plastically deform on a macroscopic scale. From a car crash to the bending of a paper clip plastic deformation occurs in the form of a smooth flow as a response of an applied stress. But due to the constant shrinking on the dimensions of mechanical devices...

  5. Porting, Tuning and Performance Analysis Tools

    29 Dec 2008 | | Contributor(s):: Mohamed Sayeed

    A basic introduction to Porting, Tuning and Performance analysis tools will be presented.

Application performance tuning is very important to making efficient use of high performance...

  6. Presentation Publishing on the nanoHUB

    10 Jul 2007 | | Contributor(s):: Joseph M. Cychosz

    This presentation gives a detailed overview of the process of creating an online presentation for the nanoHUB. It describes how to use Adobe-Macromedia's Breeze presentation tool in conjuction with Microsoft Powerpoint to create a narriated presentation, and how to upload it to the nanoHUB.

  7. Probing Molecular Conduction with Scanning Probe Microscopy

    08 Jul 2004 | | Contributor(s):: Mark Hersam

    This tutorial will provide an overview of scanning probe microscopy (SPM) andits application towards problems in molecular conduction. In an effort to communicatethe power and limitations of these instruments, the tutorial will describe designconsiderations and reveal the detailed construction of...

  8. Public Speaking for Scientists and Engineers

  11. Quantum Corrections for Monte Carlo Simulation

    05 Jan 2006 | | Contributor(s):: Umberto Ravaioli

    Size quantization is an important effect in modern scaled devices. Due to the cost and limitations of available full quantum approaches, it is appealing to extend semi-classical simulators by adding corrections for size quantization. Monte Carlo particle simulators are good candidates, because a...

  12. Quantum Dots

    21 Jul 2005 | | Contributor(s):: Gerhard Klimeck

    Quantum Dots are man-made artificial atoms that confine electrons to a small space. As such, they have atomic-like behavior and enable the study of quantum mechanical effects on a length scale that is around 100 times larger than the pure atomic scale. Quantum dots offer application...

  13. Random Lasers

    19 May 2006 | | Contributor(s):: Mikhail A. Noginov

    Random lasers are the simplest sources of stimulated emission without cavity, with the feedback provided by scattering in a gain medium. First proposed in the late 60’s, random lasers have grown to a large research field. This lecture reviews the state of the art of random lasers, provides...
