THz-Raman® Characterization of Graphene and Two-Dimensional Nanomaterials

Heyler R., Carriere J., Roy A., Ondax, Inc., US

Two dimensional (2D) materials have attracted a lot of attention due to their optimal optoelectronic properties which are not found in the domain of silicon based electronic materials. The identification and characterization of 2D materials, [...]

Effect of Film Thickness of an Insulating Material on Electrical Property Characterization and Edge Effects

Patel S.V., Gerhardt R.A., Georgia Institute of Technology, US

Insulating films such as silicon dioxide (SiO₂) have a variety of microelectronic applications because of the compound's insulating and dielectric properties. When measuring the electrical properties of a metal oxide film like silicon oxide, it [...]

Nanocharacterization Studies on Surface Modified Nanoporous Gold Films for Sensor Applications

Joshi M., Swastic S., Vemula J.K., Priydarshi K., Deshpande A., Ramanan S.R., Krishnan J.N., BITS Pilani, K. K. Birla Goa Campus, IN

Nano porous gold film is fabricated by electroless plating with Potassium Gold Cyanide as plating solution. E-beam deposited Cu substrates are chosen for plating experiments. SEM studies revealed the pore size to be 100+20 nm [...]

Optical Fluorescence Microscopy for Spatially Characterizing Electron Transfer across a Solid-Liquid Interface on Heterogeneous Electrodes

Choudhary E., National Institute of Standards and Technology, US

Heterogeneous catalytic materials and electrodes are used for (electro)chemical transformations, including those important for energy storage and utilization. Due to the heterogeneous nature of these materials, activity measurements with sufficient spatial resolution are needed to [...]
