Coupling of Leaflet Structure in Asymmetric Lipid Vesicles
Moritz Frewein , University of Graz, Institute of Molecular Biosciences, Biophysics Division

Lipid asymmetry is a hallmark of biological membranes [1]. In particular, prototypical mammalian plasma membranes are known to be composed of an outer leaflet enriched in cholinephospholipids, while the majority of the aminophospholipids are confined to the inner leaflet [2]. A r ... more

Quantum transport simulations of BDT and CuPc and Bayesian parametric analytic continuation
Michael Rumetshofer, Institute of Theoretical and Computational Physics

We investigate the equilibrium and transport properties of benzenedithiolate (BDT) between monoatomic Au and Pt electrodes [1] and a copper phthalocyanine (CuPc) molecule adsorbed on Au(111) and Ag(111) surfaces [2]. Starting from density functional theory calculations, we use a ... more

Charge transport in organic semiconductor devices - necessity of and attempt to an improved theoretical description
Markus Krammer , Institute of Solid State Physics

Organic electronics offer a wide range of applications that perfectly fit our modern life requirements. Their flexibility and biocompatibility enables applications beyond the scope of conventional inorganic semiconductors. On the road to true organic electronics, organic thin-fil ... more

From Grazing Incidence Diffraction to Pole Figures and Epitaxy
Benedikt Schrode, Institute of Solid State Physics

Grazing incidence X-ray diffraction (GIXD) is an experimental method frequently applied to characterize thin films and surfaces. Depending on the texture of the sample’s crystallites, special care is required during the experimental measurements and successive data evaluation. ... more

Atomic layer deposition of ZnO thin films: from understanding the growth toward piezoelectric applications
Julian Pilz, Institute of Solid State Physics

ZnO is a direct band gap semiconductor with attractive piezoelectrical, optical, and electrical properties, particularly appealing for a variety of functional devices (e.g., gas, bio, and UV sensors, piezoelectric nanogenerators and actuators). Among other techniques to deposit Z ... more

Structural Analysis of Stencil Printed Cu for Applications in Semiconductor Industry
Barbara Eichinger , Infineon Austria, KFU

Structural Analysis of Stencil Printed Cu for Applications in Semiconductor Industry The current trend in bond materials for high power die attach applications is going towards cheap, lead-free, high-conductivity and high-reliability sinter interconnects being able to withstan ... more

Kondo effect in the single-impurity Anderson model out of equilibrium
Delia Fugger, Institute of Theoretical and Computational Physics

The single-impurity Anderson model can be used to describe the Coulomb blockade and Kondo effect in quantum dots and nanostructures. We solve this model in as well as out of equilibrium and in an additional magnetic field with an auxiliary master equation approach [1,2,3]. This a ... more
