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...

Fabrication and geometrical characterization of metal and metal-dielectric composite periodic nanostructures

Creator:

Bhowmik, Siddhartha

Abstract:

Periodic metal and metal-dielectric composite nanostructures have been of interest from the field of plasmonics and metamaterial fabrication. In order to exploit the behavior of these unique materials in the visible region of the optical spectrum, these structures need to be significantly shorter than the wavelength of response, and hence...
