High throughput metrology for nanowire energy harvesting devices
Annotation in Czech
The overall goal of this project is the traceable measurement and characterisation of energy harvesting devices based on vertical NW. The specific objectives are: 1. To develop traceable measurement methods for high throughput nanodimensional characterisation of NW energy harvesters (> 108 NWs/cm2) including 3D form (cylindrical, prismatic, pyramidal) and sidewall roughness. 2. To develop traceable measurement methods for high throughput nanoelectrical characterisation of semiconductor NW solar cells using conductive Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) for current-voltage characteristic in the current range 100 fA to 1 mA, Scanning Microwave Microscopy (SMM) for doping concentration variation (between 1015 and 1020 atoms/cm3 with an accuracy better than 10 %), and Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems - Scanning Probe Microscopy (MEMS-SPM) for lateral resolution (< 50 nm). 3. To develop and validate traceable measurement methods and models for high throughput nanomechanical characterisation of NW devices, and electromechanical energy harvesters taking into account local bending and compression of NWs including the development of a traceable MEMS-SPM (< 10 pm depth resolution) for fast simultaneous nanomechanical and electrical measurement of semiconductor and polymer piezoelectric NWs.
