This thesis is dedicated to the synthesis, characterization and the study of electrical transport through metal nanowires and nanotubes. The metal nanowires(Ni, Cu) and nanotubes(Cu) are synthesised by electrochemical deposition in…
The electronic transport in polypyrrole thin films synthesized chemically from the vapor phase is studied as a function of temperature as well as of electric and magnetic fields. We find distinct differences in comparison to the behavior of…
Conductance histograms are a valuable tool to study the intrinsic conduction properties of metallic atomic-sized contacts. These histograms show a peak structure, which is characteristic of the type of metal under investigation. Despite the…
We investigate anomalous electrical transport properties of a Ni-TiO2 hybrid system displaying a unique nanostructured morphology. The system undergoes an insulator to metal transition below 150 K with a low temperature metallic phase that…
The crossover between two different conduction mechanisms (variable range and small polaron hoppings) is probed utilizing a conjunction of thermally varying conductivity and impedance in polycrystalline Pr2NiTiO6 (PNT). A combination of…
Although the electrical transport properties of mesoscopic metallic samples have been investigated extensively over the past two decades, the thermal properties have received far less attention. This may be due in part to the difficulty of…
We present bulk property measurements of NpIr, a newly synthesized member of the Np-Ir binary phase diagram, which is isostructural to the non-centrosymmetric pressure-induced ferromagnetic superconductor UIr. Magnetic susceptibility,…
The surface of a three dimensional topological insulator (TI) hosts surface states whose properties are determined by a Dirac-like equation. The electronic system on the surface of TI nanowires with polygonal cross-sectional shape adopts…
Electronic transport properties of Au nano-structure are investigated using both experimental and theoretical analysis. Experimentally, stable Au nanowires were created using mechanically controllable break junction in air, and simultaneous…
Thermal transport properties at the metal/MoS2 interfaces are analyzed by using an atomistic phonon transport model based on the Landauer formalism and first-principles calculations. The considered structures include chemisorbed…
We study thermal transport through Pt nanowires that bridge planar contacts as a function of wire length and vibrational frequency of the contacts. When phonons in the contacts have lower average frequencies than those in the wires thermal…
Iron oxide nanoparticles were prepared by sol -gel process. Insitu polymerization of pyrrole monomer in the presence of oxygen in iron oxide ethanol suspension resulted in a iron oxide - polypyrrole nanocomposite. The structure and magnetic…
We study a thermoelectric ratchet consisting of an array of disordered nanowires arranged in parallel on top of an insulating substrate, and contacted asymmetrically to two electrodes. Transport is investigated in the Mott hopping regime,…
In recent years, single element two-dimensional atom crystal materials have aroused extensive interest in many applications. Blue phosphorus, successfully synthesized on Au substrate by molecular beam epitaxy not long ago, shows unusual…
The complex electric modulus and the ac conductivity of carbon nanoonion/polyaniline composites were studied from 1 mHz to 1 MHz at isothermal conditions ranging from 15 K to room temperature. The temperature dependence of the electric…
Atomic structures of quasi-one-dimensional (1D) character can be grown on semiconductor substrates by metal adsorption. Significant progress concerning study of their 1D character has been achieved recently by condensing noble metal atoms…
At millimeter dimension or less, the conventional bonding technology in electronic assembly relies heavily on reflow soldering and suffers from severe performance and reliability degradation. Meanwhile, the traditional high temperature…
The stability and electronic structure of a single monatomic Al wire has been studied using the ab initio pseudopotential method. The Al wire undergoes two structural rearrangements under compression, i.e., zigzag configurations at angles…
We present a study of the temperature (T) dependence of the dc electrical conductivity of polyaniline pellets doped over a wide range. A crossover between low-T variable-range hopping and high-T nearest-neighbor hopping has been found below…
A few-layer black phosphorene has recently gained significant interest in the scientific community. In this paper, we consider several polymorphs of phosphorene nanoribbons (PNRs) and employ deformation potential theory within the effective…
