DESCRIPTION:Prof. Kimberly Dick Thelander\, Lund University Sweden\nSemico
 nductor nanowires represent an important and exciting class of novel nanos
 tructure. One of the most interesting advantages of these structures for a
  wide variety of applications is the potential to form new materials and m
 aterial combinations that do not or cannot exist in bulk structures. This 
 may include novel crystal phases\, alloy materials or heterostructure comb
 inations and superlattices. The development of these new types of material
 s requires however a fundamental bottom-up understanding of the processes 
 that govern the formation of one-dimensional crystalline structures on the
  nanoscale. In this talk I will discuss new developments in the design of 
 III-V semiconductor nanowire-based materials\, including new insights into
  their formation\, novel techniques for investigating these processes and 
 examples of exotic new materials. Specific topics will include (i) the use
  of in-situ TEM as a tool for understanding dynamic processes in formation
  of novel III-V nanowire structures (ii) fundamental processes controlling
  crystal phase\, and the implications for the physical properties of the m
 aterials (iii) new insights into the nanowire growth mechanism and connect
 ion to final material properties afforded by changing the seed particle ma
 terial\, and (iv) complex designs based on novel\nheterostructure geometri
 es.
