Terahertz imaging and spectroscopy of carbon-based and semiconductor nanostructures

Creator:

Tomaino, Joseph L.

Abstract:

This thesis will cover work that I have completed relating to the field of terahertz (THz) science. My work has consisted of generating tunable, narrowband THz pulses in a table-top optical setup and using both narrow- and broadband THz pulses to study various material systems. Broadband THz pulses were used...

Liquid-gated carbon nanotube transistor noise sources and sensitivity limits

Creator:

Sharf, Tal

Abstract:

Low-dimensional electronic materials offer a platform to observe biological processes with unprecedented spatial and temporal resolution. Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are the closest physical analog to an ideal 1D system and can be scaled and integrated into multiplexed electronic circuitry. The molecular structure of a CNT is also biocompatible, making them...

The optical properties of multi-scale plasmonic structures and their applications in optical characterization and imaging

Creator:

Kuhta, Nicholas Anthony

Abstract:

The optical response of metallic structures is dominated by the dynamics of their free electron plasma. Plasmonics, the area of optics specializing in the electromagnetic behavior of heterogeneous structures with metallic inclusions, is undergoing rapid development, fueled in part by recent progress in experimental fabrication techniques and novel theoretical approaches....
