Courses

Lab in nanoelectronics

Physical models for micro and nanosystems

Students will learn simple theoretical models, the theoretical background of finite element modeling as well as its application to modeling charge, mass and heat transport in electronic, fluidic and electromechanical micro and nanosystem.

Semiconductor devices II

Excitonic effects in 2D heterostructures

Optically excited 2D materials, host electron-hole pairs called excitons with high binding energies and long lifetimes. Deterministically stacked 2D materials form vdW heterostructures with versatile stacking configurations, making them highly versatile and potentially useful for applications.
