Tutorial Introduction to Topological Insulators
08 May 2014 | Online Presentations | Contributor(s): Parijat Sengupta
An important pursuit in semiconductor physics is to discover new materials to sustain the continuous progress and improvements in the current electronic devices.Traditionally, three material types are in use: 1) Metals 2) Semiconductors 3) Insulators. All the three material types are classified...
Analytical and Numerical Solution of the Double Barrier Problem
28 Jun 2010 | Teaching Materials | Contributor(s): Gerhard Klimeck, Parijat Sengupta, Dragica Vasileska
Tunneling is fully quantum-mechanical effect that does not have classical analog. Tunneling has revolutionized surface science by its utilization in scanning tunneling microscopes. In some device applications tunneling is required for the operation of the device (Resonant tunneling diodes,...
Nanoelectronic Modeling Lecture 11: Open 1D Systems - The Transfer Matrix Method
31 Dec 2009 | Online Presentations | Contributor(s): Gerhard Klimeck, Dragica Vasileska, Samarth Agarwal, Parijat Sengupta
The transfer matrix approach is analytically exact, and “arbitrary” heterostructures can apparently be handled through the discretization of potential changes. The approach appears to be quite appealing. However, the approach is inherently unstable for realistically extended devices which exhibit...
Band Structure Lab Exercise
Investigations of the electron energy spectra of solids form one of the most active fields of research. Knowledge of band theory is essential for application to specific problems such as Gunn diodes, tunnel diodes, photo-detectors etc. There are several standard methods to compute the band...
