One of the most significant movements in semiconductor physics in the last twenty years or so has been the progressive miniaturization of devices. The 1 D nanotransport research group at the Department of Physics in the University of Cincinnati is specialized on the fabrication of nanodevices from semiconductor thin films using high resolution electron lithography and the study of their electron transport properties at temperatures down to 25 mK and in high applied magnetic fields. The purpose of my summer research internship was to analyze the fabrication and the electron transport of such nanodevices.
