Abstract:
The primary aim is to obtain novel nanostructured semiconductor materials based on Ge nanoparticles (nps) with optimized properties to be used in photodetectors for the visible and infrared (VIS-NIR) ranges, and also in nonvolatile (NV) memory devices. This aim will be realized in the following objectives: A) Preparation and characterization of nanostructured films based on Ge nps in SiO2, TiO2, HfO2, with optimized photoconductive and electrical properties; B) Preparation and complex characterization of experimental models for VIS-NIR photodetector and NV memory using the optimized materials; C) Fabrication of VIS-NIR photodetector and NV memory to prove experimentally the concepts of the project and its applications; D) Estimation of the economic impact.
Based on the material research (Phase 1), and on the investigations of structures and experimental models (Phase 2), two prototypes will be fabricated in Phase 3, one for the VIS-NIR photodetector, and one for the NV memory, with corresponding technical specifications. Thus, we will prove that the novel nanostructured materials based on Ge nps obtained in this project are suitable for VIS-NIR photodetectors and NV memory devices. Also, the technical and economical analyses documentation and feasibility studies will be performed (Phase 4).
The two devices will be integrated into a system for event identification and an automated test and measurement system for industrial applications and manufacturing devices will be realized.
The results obtained by achieving the project objectives have a high level of originality and novelty. Therefore, the scientific results will be promoted in 5 papers in peer-reviewed journals, and in 7 communications at prestigious international conferences. The technological results will be the object of 3 patent applications.
Young students will be involved in the project, and this will have a formative effect (Master Dissertations and/or PhD theses).
