    Composition profiling of inhomogeneous SiGe nanostructures by Raman spectroscopy
    (New York, NY [u.a.] : Springer, 2012) Picco, A.; Bonera, E.; Pezzoli, F.; Grilli, E.; Schmidt, O.G.; Isa, F.; Cecchi, S.; Guzzi, M.
    In this work, we present an experimental procedure to measure the composition distribution within inhomogeneous SiGe nanostructures. The method is based on the Raman spectra of the nanostructures, quantitatively analyzed through the knowledge of the scattering efficiency of SiGe as a function of composition and excitation wavelength. The accuracy of the method and its limitations are evidenced through the analysis of a multilayer and of self-assembled islands.

    A graphene-based hot electron transistor
    (Washington, DC : American Chemical Society, 2013) Vaziri, S.; Lupina, G.; Henkel, C.; Smith, A.D.; Östling, M.; Dabrowski, J.; Lippert, G.; Mehr, W.; Lemme, M.C.
    We experimentally demonstrate DC functionality of graphene-based hot electron transistors, which we call graphene base transistors (GBT). The fabrication scheme is potentially compatible with silicon technology and can be carried out at the wafer scale with standard silicon technology. The state of the GBTs can be switched by a potential applied to the transistor base, which is made of graphene. Transfer characteristics of the GBTs show ON/OFF current ratios exceeding 104.
