Superlattices: problems and new opportunities, nanosolids

Blog Article

Abstract Superlattices were introduced 40 years ago as man-made solids to enrich the class of materials for electronic and optoelectronic applications.The field metamorphosed to quantum wells and quantum dots, with ever decreasing dimensions dictated by OUTERWEAR3/4 JKTWOOL the technological advancements in nanometer regime.In recent years, the field has gone beyond semiconductors to metals and organic solids.

Superlattice is simply a way of forming a uniform continuum for whatever purpose at hand.There are problems with doping, defect-induced random switching, and I/O involving quantum dots.However, new opportunities in component-based nanostructures may lead the field of endeavor to Muddler new heights.

The all important translational symmetry of solids is relaxed and local symmetry is needed in nanosolids.
