Terahertz transmission & spectroscopy of vertically grown multi-walled carbon nanotube forests

Creator:

Maizy, Louis

Abstract:

In this thesis, I present studies in the field of terahertz [THz] spectroscopy. It covers both the generation and detection of ultra-fast broadband THz pulses, as well as the transmission properties of vertically grown multi-walled carbon nanotube forests [MWCNTs]. We have found that these vertically grown MWCNTs respond strongly to...

Generating and using terahertz radiation to explore carrier dynamics of semiconductor and metal nanostructures

Creator:

Jameson, Andrew D.

Abstract:

In this thesis, I present studies in the field of terahertz (THz) spectroscopy. These studies are divided into three areas: Development of a narrowband THz source, the study of carrier transport in metal thin films, and the exploration of coherent dynamics of quasi-particles in semiconductor nanostructures with both broadband and...
