    • Ferromagnetic Resonance of LSMO Thin Film 

      Inkoom, Godfred (Master thesis, 2011)
      The magnetic properties of a 15uc thick LSMO thin film on SrTiO3 (STO) substrate atT=150K was investigated using the technique of ferromagnetic resonance (FMR). The FMRmeasurement of the 15uc thick LSMO thin film at a ...
    • Growth and Characterization of Germanium Quantum Dots and Crystalline Silicon 

      Hanif, Muhammad (Master thesis, 2011)
      Germanium quantum dots in a silicon matrix can be used in so-called intermediate band solar cells. Such solar cells have efficiency limits exceeding that of the conventional single junction solar cells. In this master ...
