Material Characterization and Modeling of Interband Cascade Light Emitting Diodes
Herzánová, Kristína ; Bastard, Gérald (referee) ; Detz, Hermann (advisor)
Tato práce se zaměřuje na charakterizaci materiálů a ztrátových mechanismů heterostruktur používaných v mezipásových kaskádových zařízeních a na modelování mezi-pásových kaskádových elektroluminiscenčních diod (ICLED). Mezipásová kaskádová zařízení, zejména lasery a elektroluminiscenční diody, mají zásadní význam pro fotonické aplikace ve střední infračervené oblasti vzhledem k jejich efektivitě a možnosti integrace do fotonických obvodů. Studie zahrnuje extrakci materiálových parametrů ze spektroskopické elipsometrie a FTIR měření a rozšíření stávajícího transportního modelu o zářivé rekombinační procesy, konkrétně o spontánní emisi v ICLED. Z různých ztrátových mechanismů v těchto zařízeních byla zvláštní pozornost věnována valenční mezipásové absorpci, která zhoršuje výkon mezipámových kaskádových zařízení v oblasti středních infračervených vlnových délek nad 4 m. Výsledky získané na základě experimentální charakterizace vlnovodů tvořených mezipásovými kaskádovými lasery (ICL) zkoumající jejich přenosové ztráty prokázaly vliv valenční mezipásové absorpce za různých operativních podmínek. Tento výzkum přispívá k optimalizaci struktur mezi-pásových kaskádových struktur, která vede ke zvýšení výkonu a širší použitelnosti v oblasti detekce, monitorování životního prostředí a biomedicínské diagnostiky.

Gas sensors based on diamond heterostructures for air quality monitoring
Kočí, Michal ; Szabó, Ondrej ; Izsák, T. ; Sojková, M. ; Godzierz, M. ; Wróbel, P. ; Husák, M. ; Kromka, Alexander
Currently, great emphasis is placed on air quality and the presence of pollutants. Attention is therefore focused on new gas-sensing materials enabling detection even at low (up to room) temperatures with sufficient response and short reaction time. Here, we investigate the suitability of H-NCD films and their heterostructures with MoS2, GO, rGO, SH-GO, or Au NPs for gas sensing applications. Electrical properties are measured for oxidizing gas NO2, reducing gas NH3, and chemical vapor of ethanol, and at temperatures varied from room temperature to 125 °C. In contrast to the individual forms of employed materials with limited response to the exposed gases, the HNCD heterostructures revealed better sensing properties. In particular, the Au NPs/H-NCD heterostructures revealed a higher response at 125 °C in contrast to H-NCD, MoS2/H-NCD had quite good response even at room temperature and GO/H-NCD revealed high sensitivity to chemical vapor, which further improved for the SH-GO/HNCD.

Preparation of 2D heterostructures
Ředina, Dalibor ; Hrabovský, Miloš (referee) ; Bartoš, Miroslav (advisor)
This bachelor's thesis refers about preparation of 2D hetestructures here at the IPE, BUT. The first theoretical part deals with properties of graphene, molybdenum disulfide and 2D heterostructures in general. Comprehensive overview is provided by basic facts about properties and allotropic modifications of carbon. Next part of this thesis outlines methods used in the fabrication of heterostructures and highlights presumably the best one. Experimental part deals with optimization of this method. Successive steps of this method are improved by various adjustments in order to achieve the highest success rate in the fabrication of these heterostructures. Result of this approach is stated in this thesis.

Technological challenges in the fabrication of MoS.sub.2./sub./diamond heterostructures
Varga, Marián ; Sojková, M. ; Hrdá, J. ; Hutar, P. ; Parsa Saeb, S. ; Vanko, G. ; Pribusova Slusna, L. ; Ondič, Lukáš ; Fait, Jan ; Kromka, Alexander ; Hulman, M.
Nowadays, 2D materials are one of the most studied classes of materials. In addition to the most famous graphene, progress has been achieved in studying and using fundamental properties of transition metal dichalcogenides (TMD). Complementary, diamond as a representative of 3D materials has gained a reputation as an extremely versatile material due to its extraordinary combination of physical/chemical/electrical/optical properties. Besides these particular forms of 2D and 3D materials, their heterostructures have become very attractive due to new phenomena and functions (bandgap engineering, enhanced charge transport, optical interaction, etc.). However, individual technological procedures are still minimally investigated and described. Here, we will demonstrate a proof-of-concept for the preparation of MoS2/diamond heterostructures, where two different strategies were employed: a) growth of MoS2 layers on diamond films, and b) growth of diamond films on Si/MoS2 substrates.

Preparation of elementary 2D materials and heterostructures
David, Jiří ; Redondo,, Jesús Rubén López-Roso (referee) ; Kolíbal, Miroslav (advisor)
This thesis is focused on the preparation of blue phosphorene on Ag(111) and Cu(111) substrates and on the preparation of heterostructure graphene/blue phosphorene on Cu(111) substrate. The structural properties of these materials were analyzed by LEED, LEEM, and STM. Chemical composition was measured by XPS. The first chapter describes the properties of blue phosphorene, the influence of the substrates on its growth, the current experimental state, and the advantages of heterostructures from 2D materials. The second chapter is focused on the optimization of blue phosphorene’s growth conditions. Next, a successful preparation of blue phosphorene on Cu(111) substrate is demonstrated. Additionally, a new growth mechanism of 2D materials is described. In the end, an attempt to prepare a heterostructure of blue phosphorene and graphene was made. The results show a possible feasibility of demonstrated approach.
