Metrology and Prototyping of Wide-Bandgap Semiconductor Quantum Nanowire Structures and Devices

Due: May 1, 2025

Description

Semiconductor quantum nanowires offer new applications in areas such as chemical sensors, NEMs, nanolasers, and nanoscale thermoelectric devices. A key aspect of these structures that makes the research challenging and enables the utility of various nanowire devices is that many physical phenomena do not scale from the macro to nano regimes. Our research primarily focuses on nanowires grown from wide-bandgap semiconductors especially the group III-nitride (GaN, AlN, InN) material system. We are interested in nanowire growth techn...

Conducted by the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine's Fellowships Office since 1954, these programs offer a comprehensive research experience through a rigorous selection process. The programs aim to: 1) Offer promising postdoctoral and senior scientists/engineers the chance to pursue self-directed research aligned with sponsoring laboratories' goals, 2) Enhance comprehensive research efforts of participating laboratories, 3) Provide recent doctoral graduates a platform for focused research collaboration with permanent laboratory staff, and 4) Foster professional growth by providing opportunities to gain skills, experience, and connections with leading scientists, ultimately enhancing career prospects in academia, industry, or government research roles. The programs provide mentorship, access to state-of-the-art facilities, and opportunities to influence government policy.
