Electrons in Two Dimensions: Quantum Corrals and Semiconductor Microstructures
Online Presentations | 04 Dec 2007 | Contributor(s):: Eric J. Heller
The images generated by a scanning tunneling microscope are iconic. Some of the most famous are Don Eigler’s quantum corrals, which reveal not only the guest atoms on a surface but especially the interference patterns of electrons shuttling back and forth along the surface. To understand the...

Plastic Deformation at Micron and Submicron Scales
Online Presentations | 28 Nov 2007 | Contributor(s):: Marisol Koslowski
Most people experiences the way objects plastically deform on a macroscopic scale. From a car crash to the bending of a paper clip plastic deformation occurs in the form of a smooth flow as a response of an applied stress. But due to the constant shrinking on the dimensions of mechanical devices...

Scientific Ethics and the Signs of Voodoo Science
Online Presentations | 24 Sep 2007 | Contributor(s):: Andrew S. Hirsch
Until recently, the issue of research ethics had not been a subject of explicit discussion within the Physics community. Over the past ten years, however, documented cases of scientific fraud have brought this issue to center stage. Looking at case studies, this talk explores examples ranging...

The Nano-MOSFET: A brief introduction
Online Presentations | 17 Aug 2007 | Contributor(s):: Mark Lundstrom
MOSFET channel lengths are now well below 100nm, and getting smaller, but MOSFETs are still modeled and understood much as they were 30 years ago. Seminal work in the 1960’s laid the foundation for our understanding of the MOSFET, but traditional approaches are based on concepts that lose...

Using Subversion for Source Code Control
Online Presentations | 14 Aug 2007 | Contributor(s):: Michael McLennan
If you're developing software, you should be storing your code in a source code control system. The nanoHUB team recommends Subversion, because it is easy to use, open source, and available on Unix/Linux, Windows, MacOSX, and many other systems. Subversion is similar to the popular CVS system...

Molecular Interferometry
Online Presentations | 26 Jun 2007 | Contributor(s):: David D. Nolte
While single-molecule detection through fluorescence has now become common-place, there has been no analogous single-molecule capability using direct detection approaches such as interferometry. This limitation is slowly yielding to high-speed interferoemtric detection that is pushing the...
