Scanning photocurrent microscopy study of photovoltaic and thermoelectric effects in individual single-walled carbon nanotubes

Creator:

DeBorde, Tristan

Abstract:

Carbon Nanotubes are a unique family of nanostructures that have shown remarkable promise for mechanical, electrical, and optical applications. Fundamentally similar to the earlier discovered Buckminsterfullerene (C₆₀), carbon nanotubes are hollow cylinders formed from a single sheet of carbon atoms. The research presented in this dissertation investigates several carbon nanotube...

Carbon nanotube devices engineered by atomic force microscopy

Creator:

Prisbrey, Landon

Abstract:

This dissertation explores the engineering of carbon nanotube electronic devices using atomic force microscopy (AFM) based techniques. A possible application for such devices is an electronic interface with individual biological molecules. This single molecule biosensing application is explored both experimentally and with computational modeling. Scanning probe microscopy techniques, such as...
