Summary
Advanced facility for magneto-transport characterisation of semiconductor nanostructures. This facility combines a 16 Tesla superconducting magnet with temperature variability from 1.5 degrees above absolute zero to 500 degrees with advanced mobility spectrum analysis algorithms. It will enable improved separation of previously indistinguishable multiple carrier effects in advanced semiconductor systems. This improved separation will allow an improved understanding of multiple carrier effects wh ....Advanced facility for magneto-transport characterisation of semiconductor nanostructures. This facility combines a 16 Tesla superconducting magnet with temperature variability from 1.5 degrees above absolute zero to 500 degrees with advanced mobility spectrum analysis algorithms. It will enable improved separation of previously indistinguishable multiple carrier effects in advanced semiconductor systems. This improved separation will allow an improved understanding of multiple carrier effects which will be essential before the development of frontier semiconductor technologies becomes possible.Read moreRead less
