Design and characterization of semiconductor nanowire devices

We present results on III-V semiconductor nanowires and metal halide perovskite nanowires. Focus is on optical and electrical design and characterization, especially of nanowire arrays for optoelectronic applications. Emphasis is given to the strong impact of material and geometry choice on device performance. We give examples of how electromagnetic optics modelling and drift-diffusion electrical modelling can be used to aid in both device design and analysis of characterization results.
