Anti-Pekka Jauho - Böcker

The topics covered in this text can be divided into the following main categories: (i) basic science - transport phenomena, optical properties, electronic structure, precision measurements; (ii) device modelling - Schottky contacts, quantum tunnelling structures; (iii) technology and materials science - submicron technology, dislocations, industrial applications of nanoparticles; (iv) characterization - photoemission, XAFS, tunnelling/scanning/atomic force microscopic techniques; and (v) new structures (laser-assisted microfabrication, epitaxy, self-organised growth. The lectures start at the standard textbook level and reach out to cover the latest achievements, allowing both the interested graduate student and the seasoned professional to gain an idea of the way nanoscience is developing.
