S14: Nanoscale Electronic Materials and Devices
Nanomaterials and fabrication techniques enable better control of the electronic, thermal, mechanical and magnetic properties of nanoelectronic devices. Layered semiconductor and oxide heterostructures can be used to engineer specific physical material properties. The rich interplay
between self-organized structure and individual material properties in oxide heterostructures is observed in their multiferroric properties. Semiconductor nanowires and carbon-based materials impact both energy related technologies such as thermoelectrics and photovoltaics and new sensor techniques. New tools can characterize the electronic and structural properties of nanoscale devices. In this symposium we focus on integration of different nanotechnologies to make devices with
new functionality.
