Metallic thin films for NEMS/MEMS: from fundamental behaviour to microstructural design and fabrication
DownloadFall 2011
The main focus of this thesis is the study of thin metal films in microelectromechanical/nanoelectromechanical systems (MEMS/NEMS), ranging from application to fundamental behaviour. The use of metallic structural components is desirable since they are electrically conductive, optically reflective...

Fall 2014
This thesis is focused on the Si-based anode materials for lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) as well as biomass-derived carbons for LIBs and sodium-ion batteries (NIBs). In our first attempt we investigated the effect of the support growth substrate as well as of aluminum coating layers on the...
