Abstract:
Abstract In the present work, zinc oxide (ZnO) and silver (Ag) doped ZnO nanostructures are synthesized using a hydrothermal method. Structural quality of the products is attested using X-ray diffraction, which confirms the hexagonal wurtzite structure of pure ZnO and Ag-doped ZnO nanostructures. XRD further confirms the crystallite orientation along the c-axis, (101) plane. The field emission scanning electron microscope study reveals the change in shape of the synthesized ZnO particles from hexagonal nanoparticles to needle-shaped nanostructures for 3 wt% Ag-doped ZnO. The optical band gaps and lattice strain of nanostructures is increased significantly with the increase of doping concentration of Ag in ZnO nanostructure. The antimicrobial activity of synthesized nanostructures has been evaluated against the gram-positive human pathogenic bacteria, Staphylococcus aureus via an agarose gel diffusion test. The maximum value of zone of inhibition (22 mm) is achieved for 3 wt% Ag-doped ZnO nanostructure and it clearly demonstrates the remarkable antibacterial activity.

Abstract:
This study synthesized pristine and aluminum (Al)-doped zinc oxide (Al:ZnO) nanostructures through a simplistic low-temperature ultrasonicated solution immersion method. Al:ZnO nanostructures were synthesized as a sensing material using different immersion times varying from two to five hours. The Al:ZnO nanostructured-based flexible humidity sensor was fabricated by employing cellulose filter paper as a substrate and transparent paper glue as a binder through a simplistic brush printing technique. XRD, FESEM, HRTEM, EDS, XPS, a two-probe I–V measurement system, and a humidity measurement system were employed to investigate the structural, morphological, chemical, electrical, and humidity-sensing properties of the pristine ZnO and Al:ZnO nanostructures. The structural and morphological analysis confirmed that Al cations successfully occupied the Zn lattice or integrated into interstitial sites of the ZnO lattice matrix. Humidity-sensing performance analysis indicated that the resistance of the Al:ZnO nanostructure samples decreased almost linearly as the humidity level increased, leading to better sensitivity and sensing response. The Al:ZnO-4 h nanostructured-based flexible humidity sensor had a maximum sensing response and demonstrated the highest sensitivity towards humidity changes, which was noticeably superior to the other tested samples. Finally, this study explained the Al:ZnO nanostructures-based flexible humidity sensor sensing mechanism in terms of chemical adsorption, physical adsorption, and capillary condensation mechanisms.

Abstract:
ZnO nanostructures containing doped with different atom % of Nb are fabricated through ultrasound assisted hydrolysis in water. Effects of Nd incorporation on the structure, morphology, defect structure, optical, and magnetic behaviors of the nanostructures have been studied utilizing X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, photoluminescence spectroscopy and magnetometry. We demonstrate that while Nb incorporation in ZnO nanostructures drastically modify their morphology and crystallinity, it does not affect the band gap energy of of ZnO significantly. While Nb incorporation in small concentration creates higher oxygen vacancy related defects in ZnO nanostructures, which are responsible for their visible emissions, incorporation of Nb in higher concentration reduces those defect structures from the band gap of the nanostructures. While oxygen vacancies have been frequently associated to the ferromagnetic behavior of ZnO nanostructures, our results indicate that a mere presence of oxygen vacancy in Nb-doped ZnO nanostructure does not guaranty their ferromagnetic behavior.

Abstract:
The search and development of new nanostructures and nanomaterials are very important for the progress of nanotechnology and modern microbiology. Due to the unique properties of silver and zinc oxide, these nanoparticles are the optimal basis for creating nanostructures with potential antiviral activity. An important issue in these studies is the establishment of cytotoxicity of these nanoparticles and their composites. Aim. To define the influence of substrate temperature and Ag concentration in ZnO lattice on the microstructure and cytotoxicity of zinc oxide nanostructures. Methods. Pure and Ag-doped ZnO nanostructures were grown on Ag/Si substrates by atmospheric pressure metalorganic chemical vapor deposition method using a mixture of zinc acetylacetonate and silver acetylacetonate powders as a precursor. Argentum thin films were deposited on Si substrates by a thermal evaporation method. MTT-assay was used for the analysis of MDBK and MDCK cell viability in the definition of zinc oxide nanostructure cytotoxicity. Results. Ag-doped zinc oxide nanostructures were grown and characterized by X-ray diff raction, scanning electron microscopy, and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy. It was found that Si substrate and pure zinc oxide do not inhibit the cell viability of both epithelial cultures whereas Ag-doped ZnO nanostructures inhibit the cell viability because of all-time exposure in a sample without dilution. The cytotoxic effect was not observed at higher dilutions for Ag-doped zinc oxide nanostructures. Conclusions. The investigation of the effect of Ag-doping on the morphology and cytotoxicity of zinc oxide nanostructures is very important for implementing zinc oxide nanostructures into the current optoelectronics and photocatalysis.

Abstract:
A synthetic process for the formation of Zr x Y 1-x O y nanostructures is demonstrated by the reaction of yttrium nitrate hexahydrate with zirconium propoxide. The reactions are carried out at temperature 60°C and pressure 0.1 MPa. The energy dispersive X-ray (EDX) spectroscopy measurements confirm formation of Zr x Y 1-x O y nanostructures and the presence of carbonate and hydroxide species which are removed after high temperature anneals. It was found that the oxygen pressure during synthesis plays a determinant role on the structural properties of the nanostructure. This effect is further studied by atomic force microscopy (AFM) measurements and scanning electron microscope (SEM), which showed the formation of an isotopically organized structure. X-ray diffraction (XRD) measurement reveals that these changes in the nanostructural efficiency are associated with structural and compositional changes among the substrate. The dielectric constant as measured by the capacitance–voltage (C–V) technique is estimated to be around 39.05. C–V measurements taken at 1 MHz show the maximum capacitance for the Zr 0.05 Y 0.95 O y film. The leakage current densities were below 10-5 A/cm2 for the Zr 0.05 Y 0.95 O y film.

In this study, undoped and Sn-doped hematite (α-Fe2O3) nanostructures with variation of Sn (0.5, 1, 2, 3 at. %) were deposited on fluorine doped tin oxide (FTO) coated glass substrate using sonicated immersion method. The effect of Sn-dopant on structural and crystallinity properties were investigated by characterizing FESEM and XRD respectively, while the optical properties were measured by UV-Vis-NIR spectrometer. The surface morphologies from FESEM have shown that the hematite nanostructures were grown uniformly in all samples. However, as the dopant atomic percentage increases, the amount of hematite nanostructure being grown on the FTO decreases. Results demonstrated that the amount of Sn-doping was undoubtedly influence the structural, optical and electrical properties of hematite nanostructures.

Abstract:
This article considers main problems in application of nanostructured materials in high technologies. Theoretical development and experimental verification of methods for creating and studying the properties of physically doped materials with spatially inhomogeneous structure on micro and nanometer scale are proposed. Results of studying 11 quantum size effects exposed to nanocomposites physical doping with nanostructures with high electron affinity are presented. Theoretical and available experimental data were compared in regard to creation of nanostructured materials, including those with increased strength and wear resistance, inhomogeneous at the nanoscale and physically doped with nanostructures, i.e., quantum traps for free electrons. Solving these problems makes it possible to create new nanostructured materials, investigate their varying physical properties, design, manufacture and operate devices and instruments with new technical and functional capabilities, including those used in the nuclear industry. Nanocrystalline structures, as well as composite multiphase materials and coatings properties could be controlled by changing concentrations of the free carbon nanostructures there. It was found out that carbon nanostructures in the composite material significantly improve impact strength, microhardness, luminescence characteristics, temperature resistance and conductivity up to 10 orders of magnitude, and expand the range of such components’ possible applications in comparison with pure materials, for example, copper, aluminum, transition metal carbides, luminophores, semiconductors (thermoelectric) and silicone (siloxane, polysiloxane, organosilicon) compounds

Abstract:
Highly sensitive and stable pH-sensing properties of an extended-gate field-effect transistor (EGFET) based on the aluminum-doped ZnO (AZO) nanostructures have been demonstrated. The AZO nanostructures with different Al concentrations were synthesized on AZO/glass substrate via a simple hydrothermal growth method at 85°C. The AZO sensing nanostructures were connected with the metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor (MOSFET). Afterwards, the current-voltage (I-V) characteristics and the sensing properties of the pH-EGFET sensors were obtained in different buffer solutions, respectively. As a result, the pH-sensing characteristics of AZO nanostructured pH-EGFET sensors with Al dosage of 3 at.% can exhibit the higher sensitivity of 57.95 mV/pH, the larger linearity of 0.9998, the smaller deviation of 0.023 in linearity, the lower drift rate of 1.27 mV/hour, and the lower threshold voltage of 1.32 V with a wider sensing range (pH 1 ~ pH 13). Hence, the outstanding stability and durability of AZO nanostructured ionic EGFET sensors are attractive for the electrochemical application of flexible and disposable biosensor.

Abstract:
Nanostructured materials remarkably improve the overall properties of thermoelectric devices, mainly due to the increase in the surface-to-volume ratio. This behavior is attributed to an increased number of scattered phonons at the interfaces and boundaries of the nanostructures. Among many other materials, nanostructured Si was used to expand the power generation compared to bulk crystalline Si, which leads to a reduction in thermal conductivity. However, the use of nanostructured Si leads to a reduction in the electrical conductivity due to the formation of low dimensional features in the heavily doped Si regions. Accordingly, the fabrication of hybrid nanostructures based on nanostructured Si and other different nanostructured materials constitutes another strategy to combine a reduction in the thermal conductivity while keeping the good electrical conduction properties. This review deals with the properties of Si-based thermoelectric devices modified by different nanostructures and hybrid nanostructured materials.

Abstract:
The optical and luminescent properties of nanostructures of CdS / ZnS QDs and CdS QDs doped with lithium, obtained by the sol-gel technology in an aqueous solution of gelatin, have been studied. It was determined from the optical absorption spectra of the CdS / ZnS QD nanostructures that the thickness of the shell layer corresponds to the thickness of one ZnS monolayer. The luminescence spectra revealed a significant increase in the intensity of luminescence nanostructure. The absorption spectra of undoped and doped CdS NCs coincide, which indicates that there is no change in the NC size and the absence of the formation of a lithium-sulfur compound. The luminescence spectra of lithium-doped QDs demonstrate an increase in the luminescence intensity, which is associated with the passivation of surface states.

Abstract:
Future electronic devices having dimensions on the nanometer scale will rely on the resultant quantum effects for their operation. In this project, these quantum effects were investigated through the theoretical modeling and computer simulation of a confined twodimensional electron gas in a semiconductor heterostructure. Assuming hardwall boundaries and sharp geometrical features, the nanostructure conductance has been calculated by finding transverse eigenvalues and eigenfunctions, computing hopping integrals for a one-dimensional tight binding lattice, determining the Greens' propagators, and then finally evaluating the transmittance. From the transmittance, the conductance was determined.A structured and modular computer program in FORTRAN was developed to investigate the effects of geometrical modifications on the conductance of ballistic nanochannels. The program has been designed in such a way that the user need only supply the nanostructure specifications to an input data file. The program then uses this data file to perform the calculations. A separate, user-friendly program has been developed to form the data file. The program is such that additions and modifications can be easily made in the future.

Abstract:
L'objectif de ce travail est de réaliser des substrats pour l’effet SEIRA (surface enhanced IR absorption) pour mesurer de faibles volumes de gaz ambiants possédant une signature moléculaire de 3,3 μm à 5,1 μm en exploitant la forte amplification de champ électrique due à la résonance plasmon de surface localisés. A cette fin, nous avons démontré la modulation des résonances de plasmon de surface localisées MIR (LSPR) dans les nanocristaux de ZnO dopés (NCs) dopés à Ga ou Al ainsi que dans des nanofils (NWs) de ZnO dopés Ga (GZO) et dans des nanofils coeur/coquille de ZnO/GZO. En ce qui concerne l’accordabilité de MIR LSPR dans les NC, nous avons modulé la résonance plasmon de surface dans des NC de ZnO dopés Ga et Al, de 3 à 5 μm en faisant varier la teneur en Al et en Ga de 3 à 9 at.%. L’incorporation des dopants s’est révélée homogène jusqu’à 6%. Au-delà (9%), l’incorporation était fortement hétérogène, révélant que la limite de solubilité était atteinte. Les NC présentent une faible activation des impuretés. L'activation était aussi faible que 8%. Les LSPR présentaient également un fort élargissement (largeur-à-mi-hauteur FWHM). Pour accroitre l'activation des dopants, nous avons synthétisés les NC dans des conditions pauvres en O et en passivant les NC synthétisés dans des conditions riches en O (en les isolant dans des matrices telles que Al2O3 et SiO2). Nous avons ainsi augmenté l'activation de 8% à 20% pour les deux stratégies. De plus, l'incorporation des NC dans les matrices a réduit l'élargissement spectral de moitié (de 2200 cm-1 pour les NC déposés à 1100 cm-1 pour les NC noyés en matrice). En correspondance, les effets d’auto-assemblage des nanocristaux sur leur LSPR ont été modélisés par simulation FDTD. Cela a fourni des indications quant aux mécanismes responsable de l’élargissement inhomogènes des LSPR de nanocristaux de GZO. Outre les nanoparticules, nous avons étudié des nanofils ZnO dopés Ga (GZO) et coeur/coquille (ZnO/GZO) synthétisés par CVD d’organométalliques . La première conclusion importante est que le gallium produit un fort effet surfacatnt lors de la croissance MOCVD de GZO. Au lieu de former des nanofils de section hexagonale, l’introduction de Ga modifie nettement l’énergie de surface des faces latérales et conduit à al formation de structures de type « sapins de Noël ». Ce constat est aussi valable pour les coquilles de GZO déposées sur coeur de ZnO. Dans ce cas, les coquilles démouillent et forment des structures hiérarchiques en branches. Concernant les propriétés optiques de ces objets, les mesures de FTIR-photo acoustiques ont démontré une signature d’absorption reliée à la présence de Ga et pouvant être accordée selon la teneur en Ga. Cette absorption reproduit le comportement d’une résonance plasmon de surface. Cette résonance a pu être accordée de 1600 à 1900 cm-1
The scope of this thesis is about developing SEIRA (surface enhanced IR absorption) platform to probe low volumes of environmental gases that possess molecular signature from 3.3 μm to 5.1 μm leveraging the high field amplification of localised surface plasmon resonance (LSPR). To realise SEIRA, we demonstrated tuning MIR LSPR in Al or Ga doped ZnO nanocrystals (NCs) as well as in GZO or core-shell (ZnO/GZO) nanowires (NWs). Regarding tuning MIR LSPR in NCs, we demonstrated tunable MIR LSPR in Ga and Al doped ZnO NCs from 3 to 5 μm varying the Al or Ga content from 3 to 9 at.%. The incorporation of dopant was homogeneous up to 6%. At 9% dopant concentration, the incorporation was inhomogeneous, revealing the solubility limit has been reached. However, the NCs exhibited low activation of impurities. The activation was as low as 8%. The LSPR were characterised by large broadening as well. In order to enhance the dopant activation, we synthesized the NCs in O-poor conditions as well as passivated the NCs fabricated in O-rich condictions (by isolating and embedding them in matrices such as Al2O3 and SiO2 matrices). Both strategies improved the dopant activation from 8% up to 20%. Moreover, for assemblies of NCs dispersed in matrices, the broadening (FWHM) of the LSPR was reduced by half (from 2200 cm-1 in as-deposited NCs to 1100 cm-1 in embedded NCs). Correspondingly, the effect of the self-assembly of the nanocrystals on their LSPR was modeled by FDTD simulation and provided hindsight into the mechanisms responsible for the heterogeneous broadening of the LSPR. Finally, we have studied Ga-doped ZnO (GZO) and core-shell (ZnO/GZO) NW synthesized by MOCVD. The first important conclusion is that Ga plays a major surfactant role during the MOCVD growth of GZO. Instead of leading to hexagonal NWs, the introduction of Ga during the synthesis led to faceted “Christmas-tree” like architectures. The same observation held for core-shell ZnO-GZO nanowires; in the latter case, the GZO shell resulted in a dewetting branched architecture. Regarding their optical properties, photo-acoustic FTIR measurements revealed an absorption feature related to the Ga content, likely to be assigned to a plasmonic effect. This resonance could be tuned from 1600 to 1900 cm

Abstract:
The study of interactions between plasmonic nanomaterials and dielectrics is a thriving field of research, which in recent years proved that such nanostructures can be applied in a wide range of applications, from sensing to catalysts. These are all based on the nanoscale surface interactions happening between the nanomaterials and their surrounding environment. In this thesis, the possible interaction between plasmonic nanoparticles and the V doping states in the Anatase (TiO_2) bandgap, rather than in their undoped counterpart, is studied. The aim is to better understand the dynamics of these phenomena, and obtaining insights on the V states position in the TiO_2 bandgap. The work done encompasses all the steps needed to achieve the experimental results: from the preparation and characterisation of the samples, to the simulations of the phenomena involved, until the actual measurements of their optical properties and the discussion of the results. The findings achieved are not decisive in explaining the dynamics involved, but preliminary interpretations could be formulated. Moreover, the specific investigations displayed in this thesis have never been done before in literature, and the work performed might be used in the future as a starting point for more thorough and deep studies of these phenomena.

Abstract:
Tin-doped indium oxide (ITO) has been widely used for various optoelectronic devices such as display panels, light-emitting diodes and solar cells due to its unique optical and electrical properties. Thin ITO films can be fabricated by a number of methods such as molecular beam epitaxy (MBE), laser ablation, dc sputtering, e-beam deposition, vapor phase deposition, electrochemical deposition and hydrothermal method. Apart from the conventional thin film form, one dimensional ITO nanorods or nanowires are attracting much research interest due to their high aspect ratio and large surface to volume ratio. For instance, a network made of ITO nanowires can exhibit high transparency (over 95 %) and high flexibility without losing its conducting property as reported recently. This network can be potentially used for flexible photovoltaic devices. In this study, ITO nanorods or nanowires were fabricated using the vapor deposition, dc sputtering and e-beam deposition. The use of short ITO nanorods (100 nm) on glass and commercial ITO substrates as bottom electrodes improving the charge collection of bulk heterojunction organic solar cells had been demonstrated. The morphology of the ITO nanostructures was studied by scanning electron microscope (SEM) and transmission electron microscope (TEM). The crystal structure and growth direction were studied by x-ray diffraction (XRD) and selected area electron diffraction (SAED), respectively. Optical properties were examined using transmission and photoluminescence measurements. The performance of the organic solar cells was examined using the I-V characteristics and external quantum efficiency (EQE) measurements. The growth mechanism of the ITO nanowires using different fabrication methods was discussed. The effects of the substrate temperature, oxygen content, choice of substrate and evaporation rate on the morphology, transmittance and sheet resistivity were investigated. When short ITO nanorods were incorporated into the bulk heterojunction organic solar cells, a significant improvement of the power conversion efficiency (PCE) was observed. The higher efficiency of the studied solar cells was attributed to the improved charge collection.

Abstract:
Carbon nanostructures have emerged as a key material in nanotechnology and continuously find new areas of applications. Particularly, they are attractive due to their excellent properties as support for catalyst nanostructures leading to highly efficient composite materials for various electrochemical applications. The interest in these structures is further increased by the possibility to alter their electronic and structural properties by various methods. Heteroatom doping of carbon nanostructures is one of the approaches which may induce intrinsic catalytic activity in these materials. In addition, such introduction of guest elements into the hexagonal carbon skeleton provides strong nucleation sites which facilitate the stabilization of nanostructures on their surface. In this thesis we present detailed studies on the nitrogen incorporation into carbon nanostructures, particularly carbon nanotubes and reduced graphene oxide. Due to the high impact of nitrogen configuration on the intrinsic electrocatalytic properties of carbon nanostructures, we investigated the nitrogen functionalities using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and Raman spectroscopy. Based on our achievements we could assign the most electrocatalytic active nitrogen site in nitrogen-doped carbon nanotubes (NCNTs) for catalytic oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) which is an important reaction in energy conversion systems such as fuel cells. We then used nitrogen-doped carbon nanostructures as a key component to manufacture hybrid material, where the nitrogen doped nanostructures has a role of both stabilizing the nanostructures and to work as conductive additive to assist the charge transfer from the other constituents suffering from inherently poor conductivity. Our hybrid material comprising transition metal oxides (Fe2O3 and Co3O4) anchored on nitrogen-doped carbon nanostructure were used to both manufacture an exotic type of graphene nanoscrolls, as well as studied and evaluated as an electrocatalyst in various electrochemical reactions. We show that the self-assembled electrodes exhibited better performance and higher stability compared to when the same material was loaded on common current collectors such as fluorine tin oxide (FTO) coated glass and glassy carbon electrode, with both higher current densities, more efficient charge transfer and lower overpotentials for oxygen evolution and hydrogen evolution reactions, the two important processes in a water splitting device. Our NCNTs-based electrodes showed further excellent performance in lithium ion batteries with high cyclability and capacity. The thesis gives insight into processes, materials, and methods that can be utilized to manufacture an efficient water splitting device, based on earth-abundant self-assembled materials. It further represents a significant advancement of the role of nitrogen in heteroatom-doped nanostructures, both regarding their intrinsic catalytic activity, as well as their role for stabilizing nanostructures.

Abstract:
Nanotechnology is a technology of the design and the applications of nanoscale materials with their fundamentally new properties and functions. Nanosensor devices based on nanomaterials provide very fast response, low-cost, long-life time, easy to use for unskilled users, and provide high-efficiency. 1-D ZnO nanostructures materials have great potential applications in various sensing applications. ZnO is a wide band gap (3.37 eV at room temperature) semiconductor materials having large exciton binding energy (60 meV) and excellent chemical stability, electrical, optical, piezoelectric and pyroelectric properties. By doping the transition metals (TM) into ZnO matrix, the properties of ZnO nanostructures can be tuned and its room  temperature ferromagnetic behavior can be enhanced, which provide the TM-doped ZnO nanostructures as promising candidate for optoelectronic, spintronics and high performance sensors based devices. The synthesis of ZnO and TM-doped ZnO nanostructures via the low temperature hydrothermal method is considered a promising technique due to low cost, environmental friendly, simple solution process, diverse 1-D ZnO nanostructures can be achieved, and large scale production on any type of substrate, and their properties can be controlled by the growth parameters. However, to synthesize 1-D ZnO and TM-doped ZnO nanostructures with controlled shape, structure and uniform size distribution on large area substrates with desirable properties, low cost and simple processes are of high interest and it is a big challenge at present. The main purpose of this dissertation aims to develop new techniques to synthesize 1-D ZnO and (Fe, Mn)-doped ZnO nanostructures via the hydrothermal method, to characterize and to enhance their functional properties for developing sensing devices such as biosensors for clinical diagnoses and environmental monitoring applications, piezoresistive sensors and UV photodetector. The first part of the dissertation deals with the hydrothermal synthesis of ZnO nanostructures with controlled shape, structure and uniform size distribution under different conditions and their structural characterization.

Abstract:
Over the last decade, the lead-free, environmentally-friendly multiferroic material, BiFeO3 (BFO), has once again received tremendous attention from researchers, not only for its fundamental properties, but also for its potential applications such as novel devices that can be written by an electric field and read by a magnetic field. However, one of the most important limitations for applications is the high leakage current in pure materials. Doping has proved to be an effective way to reduce the leakage current caused by the electron hopping between Fe2+ and Fe3+. In this work, a series of Nd3+ and Ti4+ co-doped BFO compositions have been studied using a combination of atomic resolution imaging and electron energy loss spectroscopy in STEM, especially concentrating on nanostructures within the Bi0.85Nd0.15Fe0.9Ti0.1O3 composition, as nanostructures can play an important role in the properties of a crystal. Two types of novel defects – Nd-rich nanorod precipitates and Ti-cored anti-phase boundaries (APBs) are revealed for the first time. The 3D structures of these defects were fully reconstructed and verified by multislice frozen phonon image simulations. The very formation of these defects was shown to be caused by the excess doping of Ti into the material and their impact upon the matrix is discussed. The nanorods consist of 8 atom columns with two Nd columns in the very center forming the Nd oxide. Density functional theory calculation reveals that the structures of the nanorod and its surrounding perovskites are rather unusual. The Nd in the core is seven coordinated by oxygen while the coordination of B site Fe3+ at its surroundings are just five-coordinated by oxygen due to the strain between the nanorod and the surrounding perovskite. The APB is nonstoichiometric and can be treated as being constructed from two main structural units - terraces and steps. Within the terraces, Ti4+ occupy the centre of the terrace with Ti/Fe alternately occupying either side of the terrace. As for the step, this is constructed from iron oxide alone with a structure similar to g-Fe2O3, and Ti is completely absent. Quantitative analysis of the structure shows the APB is negatively charged and this results in electric fields around the APBs that induce a local phase transformation from an antiferroelectric phase to a locally polarised phase in the perovskite matrix. Based on this thorough investigation of these defects, a new ionic compensation mechanism was proposed for reducing the conductivity of BiFeO3 without the complications of introducing non-stoichiometric nanoscale defects.

Abstract:
Zinc oxide (ZnO) is an n-type II-VI semiconductor with a reported band gap of 3.2-3.6 eV [1, 2, 3] and electrical resistivity of ~ 50 Ωcm [4]. Ideal for use in devices such as Photovoltaics (PVs), Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs) and detectors, ZnO has the advantage that it can be electrochemically deposited. This enables the quick and cheap controlled growth of ZnO nanostructures, which can potentially enhance performance in electronic applications over thin films. ZnO doping with a group III element e.g. Aluminium, can increase ZnO conduction by several orders of magnitude whilst having only a subtle effect on its optical properties, therefore further enhancing device performance. For the first time, this thesis presents a unique in-depth study into the potentiostatic electrochemical deposition of well defined zinc oxide nanostructures (nanorods and platelets), their controlled aluminium doping and application in PV devices. This work addresses the mechanism of doping and examines the relationship between the opto-electronic properties, composition, structure, morphology and growth. The results show that arrays of crystalline wurtzite ZnO nanorods with strong (002) preferential orientation can be deposited on ITO and Au using a 1 mM Zn(NO3)2 system. Doping has been successfully carried out using Al(NO3)3 with a doping mechanism confirmed for the first time. This study shows that doped nanorods contain < 5 at. % Al3+, where Al3+ is incorporated in the ZnO lattice as interstitial and/or substitutional ions. This results in a subtle increase in the band gap, and is believed to increase the ZnO conduction by several orders of magnitude. The application of these nanorod arrays in PV devices has improved device efficiency by ~ 1080 %. Furthermore, platelets have been successfully deposited using a 5 mM Zn(NO3)2 system. A critical dopant content ~ 5 at. % Al3+ has been found, above which there is a transition in the doping mechanism towards spontaneous Al2O3 formation in addition to interstitial and substitutional Al3+ ion locations. This results in a gradual decrease in the optical band gap towards that of undoped ZnO. This mechanism occurs in platelets, where at. % Al3+ > 5 %. Platelet formation is associated with small quantities of impurities such as Al2O3, ZnCl2, Zn(ClO4)2 Zn5(OH)8Cl2.H2O and Au3Zn, arising from deposition conditions. Both impurities and dopants result in increased ZnO polycrystallinity and decreased ZnO (002) preferential orientation. The performance of PV devices with nanorod arrays has been shown to be better than previously reported equivalent thin film devices. This work illustrates the significance of electrochemical deposition as a technique for cheap and quick, controlled mass production of high quality tailor-made ZnO semiconductor nanostructures.

Abstract:
La synthèse de graphène par approche « bottom-up » fait l’objet de nombreux travaux de recherche ayant pour but de contrôler les propriétés électroniques et optiques de ce matériau par la fabrication de nanostructures avec une précision atomique. D’autre part, le contrôle de dopant dans le graphène permettant d’en moduler les propriétés suscite un grand intérêt et dans ce contexte l’utilisation de porphyrines avec un taux d’azote contrôlé est attrayante. Par leurs ressemblances structurelles, les porphyrines π-étendues peuvent être considérées comme des nanoparticules de graphène dopées à l’azote (GQDs) présentant de fortes propriétés infrarouge tandis que les briques de construction à base de porphyrines peuvent être utilisées pour la synthèse sur surface de deux type de nanoarchitectures de graphene appélées nanorubans (GNRs) et nanomèches (GNMs). Cette thèse a pour objectif de développer la synthèse de porphyrines à base d’anthracenes et de les utiliser comme précurseurs pour la fabrication de nanostructures. La première partie de cette thèse est dédiée à la synthèse organique de différentes anthracenylporphyrines et à l’étude de leurs assemblages sur surface dans la chambre d’un microscope à effet tunnel. La seconde partie est dédiée à l’étude de formation de porphyrines π-étendues via une méthode pyrolyse flash pouvant activer thermiquement des réactions de couplage par déhydrogenation entre des hydrocarbures aromatiques polyycliques (PAHs) et des porphyrines. La dernière partie est dédiée à la modification post synthétique d’une tetrabromoanthracenylporphyrine par addition de PAHs via la réaction de couplage de Suzuki-Miyaura et à la caractérisation des propriétés optiques de ces porphyrines nouvellement formées
The synthesis of graphene via bottom-up approach is a hot topic of research that aims to control the electronic and optical properties of this material by the fabrication of atomically precised nanostructures. Moreover, the control of dopant in graphene is of great interest to modulate the properties of the material. In this context, the contribution of porphyrins with a controlled content of nitrogen is attractive in this context. Because of structural similarities with graphene quantum dots (GQDs), π-extented porphyrins can be regarded as nitrogen-doped GQD with promising NIR properties. Porphyrins are convenient building blocks for the synthesis on surface of nanoarchitectures of graphene called nitrogen-doped Graphene Nanoribbons (GNRs) and Graphene NanoMeshes (GNMs). This thesis aims to develop the synthesis of symmetrical and robust porphyrins with anthracenes and to use them as precursors for the fabrication of nanostructures. The first part of this thesis is dedicated to the organic synthesis of variety of anthracenylporphyrins and the study of their assemblies on surface in a chamber of a Scanning Tunneling Microscope. The second part is dedicated to the study of formation of π-extended porphyrins via a method of flash pyrolysis able to thermally activate dehydrogenative coupling reactions between Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs) and porphyrins. The last part is dedicated to the post synthetic modification of a tetrabromoanthracenylporphyrin with additional PAHs via Suzuki-Miyaura coupling and the characterization of the optical properties of the resulting porphyrins

Abstract:
It is well known that nanostructures possess unique electronic, optical, magnetic, ferroelectric and piezoelectric properties that are often superior to traditional bulk materials. In particular, one dimensional (1D) nanostructured inorganic materials including nanofibres, nanotubes and nanobelts have attracted considerable attention due to their distinctive geometries, novel physical and chemical properties, combined effects and their applications to numerous areas. Metal ion doping is a promising technique which can be utilized to control the properties of materials by intentionally introducing impurities or defects into a material. γ-Alumina (Al2O3), is one of the most important oxides due to its high surface area, mesoporous properties, chemical and thermal properties and its broad applications in adsorbents, composite materials, ceramics, catalysts and catalyst supports. γ-Alumina has been studied intensively over a long period of time. Recently, considerable work has been carried out on the synthesis of 1D γ-alumina nanostructures under various hydrothermal conditions; however, research on the doping of alumina nanostructures has not been forthcoming. Boehmite (γ-AlOOH) is a crucial precursor for the preparation of γ-Alumina and the morphology and size of the resultant alumina can be manipulated by controlling the growth of AlOOH. Gallium (Ga) is in the same group in the periodic table as aluminum. β-Gallium (III) oxide (β-Ga2O3), a wide band gap semiconductor, has long been known to exhibit conduction, luminescence and catalytic properties. Numerous techniques have been employed on the synthesis of gallium oxide in the early research. However, these techniques are plagued by inevitable problems. It is of great interest to explore the synthesis of gallium oxide via a low temperature hydrothermal route, which is economically efficient and environmentally friendly. The overall objectives of this study were: 1) the investigation of the effect of dopants on the morphology, size and properties of metal ion doped 1D alumina nanostructures by introducing dopant to the AlOOH structure; 2) the investigation of impacts of hydrothermal conditions and surfactants on the crystal growth of gallium oxide nanostructures. To achieve the above objectives, trivalent metal elements such as iron, gallium and yttrium were employed as dopants in the study of doped alumina nanostructures. In addition, the effect of various parameters that may affect the growth of gallium oxide crystals including temperature, pH, and the experimental procedure as well as different types of surfactants were systematically investigated. The main contributions of this study are: 1) the systematic and in-depth investigation of the crystal growth and the morphology control of iron, gallium and yttrium doped boehmite (AlOOH) under varying hydrothermal conditions, as a result, a new soft-chemistry synthesis route for the preparation of one dimensional alumina/boehmite nanofibres and nanotubes was invented; 2) systematic investigation of the crystal growth and morphology and size changes of gallium oxide hydroxide (GaOOH) under varying hydrothermal conditions with and without surfactant at low temperature; We invented a green hydrothermal route for the preparation of α-GaOOH or β-GaOOH micro- to nano-scaled particles; invented a simple hydrothermal route for the direct preparation of γ-Ga2O3 from aqueous media at low temperature without any calcination. The study provided detailed synthesis routes as well as quantitative property data of final products which are necessary for their potential industrial applications in the future. The following are the main areas and findings presented in the study: • Fe doped boehmite nanostructures This work was undertaken at 120ºC using PEO surfactant through a hydrothermal synthesis route by adding fresh iron doped aluminium hydrate at regular intervals of 2 days. The effect of dopant iron, iron percentage and experimental procedure on the morphology and size of boehmite were systematically studied. Iron doped boehmite nanofibres were formed in all samples with iron contents no more than 10%. Nanosheets and nanotubes together with an iron rich phase were formed in 20% iron doped boehmite sample. A change in synthesis procedure resulted in the formation of hematite large crystals. The resultant nanomaterials were characterized by a combination of XRD, TEM, EDX, SAED and N2 adsorption analysis. • Growth of pure boehmite nanofibres/nanotubes The growth of pure boehmite nanofibres/nanotubes under different hydrothermal conditions at 100ºC with and without PEO surfactant was systematically studied to provide further information for the following studies of the growth of Ga and Y doped boehmite. Results showed that adding fresh aluminium hydrate precipitate in a regular interval resulted in the formation of a mixture of long and short 1D boehmite nanostructures rather than the formation of relatively longer nanofibres/nanotubes. The detailed discussion and mechanism on the growth of boehmite nanostructure were presented. The resultant boehmite samples were also characterized by N2 adsorption to provide further information on the surface properties to support the proposed mechanism. • Ga doped boehmite nanostructures Based on this study on the growth of pure boehmite nanofibre/nanotubes, gallium doped boehmite nanotubes were prepared via hydrothermal treatment at 100ºC in the presence of PEO surfactant without adding any fresh aluminium hydrate precipitate during the hydrothermal treatment. The effect of dopant gallium, gallium percentage, temperature and experimental procedure on the morphology and size of boehmite was systematically studied. Various morphologies of boehmite nanostructures were formed with the increase in the doping gallium content and the change in synthesis procedure. The resultant gallium doped boehmite nanostructures were characterized by TEM, XRD, EDX, SAED, N2 adsorption and TGA. • Y doped boehmite nanostructures Following the same synthesis route as that for gallium doped boehmite, yttrium doped boehmite nanostructures were prepared at 100ºC in the presence of PEO surfactant. From the study on iron and gallium doped boehmite nanostructures, it was noted both iron and gallium cannot grow with boehmite nanostructure if iron nitrate and gallium nitrate were not mixed with aluminium nitrate before dissolving in water, in particular, gallium and aluminium are 100% miscible. Therefore, it’s not necessary to study the mixing procedure or synthesis route on the formation of yttrium doped boehmite nanostructures in this work. The effect of dopant yttrium, yttrium percentage, temperature and surfactant on the morphology and size of boehmite were systematically studied. Nanofibres were formed in all samples with varying doped Y% treated at 100ºC; large Y(OH)3 crystals were also formed at high doping Y percentage. Treatment at elevated temperatures resulted in remarkable changes in size and morphology for samples with the same doping Y content. The resultant yttrium doped boehmite nanostructures were characterized by TEM, XRD, EDX, SAED, N2 adsorption and TGA. • The synthesis of Gallium oxide hydroxide and gallium oxide with surfactant In this study, the growth of gallium oxide hydroxide under various hydrothermal conditions in the presence of different types of surfactants was systematically studied. Nano- to micro-sized gallium oxide hydroxide was prepared. The effect of surfactant and synthesis procedure on the morphology of the resultant gallium oxide hydroxide was studied. β-gallium oxide nanorods were derived from gallium oxide hydroxide by calcination at 900ºC and the initial morphology was retained. γ-gallium oxide nanotubes up to 65 nm in length, with internal and external diameters of around 0.8 and 3.0 nm, were synthesized directly in solution with and without surfactant. The resultant nano- to micro-sized structures were characterized by XRD, TEM, SAED, EDX and N2 adsorption. • The synthesis of gallium oxide hydroxide without surfactant The aim of this study is to explore a green synthesis route for the preparation of gallium oxide hydroxide or gallium oxide via hydrothermal treatment at low temperature. Micro to nano sized GaOOH nanorods and particles were prepared under varying hydrothermal conditions without any surfactant. The resultant GaOOH nanomaterials were characterized by XRD, TEM, SAED, EDX, TG and FT-IR. The growth mechanism of GaOOH crystals was proposed.

This article examines the effect of electron-phonon coupling on the thermopower of low-dimensional structures. It begins with a review of the theoretical approaches and the basic concepts regarding phonon drag under different transport regimes in two- and one-dimensional systems. It then considers the thermopower of two-dimensional semiconductor structures, focusing on phonon drag in semi-classical two-dimensional electron gases confined in semiconductor nanostructures. It also analyzes the influence of phonon drag on the thermopower of semiconductor quantum wires and describes the phonon-drag thermopower of doped single-wall carbon nanotubes. The article compares theory and experiment in order to demonstrate the role of phonon-drag and electron-phonon coupling in the thermopower in two and one dimensions.

Abstract:
There is intense interest to develop nanowires [1] and superlattices [2] that may offer superior thermoelectric figure of merit for efficient energy conversion. Meanwhile, the advance of semiconductor processing techniques has yielded impurity-doped semiconductor nanostructures with a doped region as small as a few nanometers. These include shallow junction Si field-effect transistors, strained Si/SiGe/Ge heterostructures and quantum dots, III-V heterostructures, and doped nanowires and nanotubes. Due to various size confinement effects, these doped semiconductor nanostructures often have unique electrical, optoelectronic, or thermoelectric properties that may lead to a wide range of applications. In contrast to the progress made in synthesizing thermoelectric nanostructures and in fabricating doped semiconductor nanostructures, the ability to quantify thermoelectric property and carrier concentration in comparable length scale has been lagging behind. For example, the 1997 U.S. Roadmap of Semiconductors from the Semiconductor Industry Association (SIA) defines the need for nanometer-scale measurements of carrier concentration profiles [3]. Though progress has been made, currently no technique can satisfy the requirements posted by the SIA roadmap due to the lack of either spatial resolution or accuracy.
