Adsorption of Noble Gases on Individual Suspended Single-Walled Carbon Nanotubes
(2014-02-24)The focus of this work is a study of the adsorption of noble gases on individual, suspended, single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs). The surface of a SWNT is a cylindrical cousin of graphite, but the binding energy is ... -
Device Physics of Two-Dimensional Crystalline Materials
The study of two-dimensional (2D) electrons in condensed matter physics has two milestones: quantum Hall effects in semiconductor heterostructures and superconductivity in cuprates. In both, the 2D electrons are embedded ... -
Gas Adsorption on Suspended Carbon Nanotubes and Graphene
Rare gas adsorption was studied on suspended individual single walled carbon nanotubes and graphene. The devices were fabricated as field effect transistors. Adsorption on graphene was studied through two-terminal ... -
Getting the most out of nanopores
Over the past three decades, the fields of biophysics and biotechnology have seen an era of unprecedented growth, bolstered by the development of new experimental techniques. Prominent within these techniques are ... -
Magneto-transport and Photoresponse of 2D Semimetals
A semimetal is a material with a small overlap between the bottom of the conduction band and the top of the valence band. Near the Fermi level, the density of state is almost negligible. Thus, in the two dimensional limit, ...
