Inhalt:
We have developed a MEMS platform to enable the characterization of individual nanowires both from thermoelectric and structural aspects. The main features of the TNCP are the proper thermal isolation of the platform at the nanowires sites. Additionally it is equipped with 4-point measurement electrodes and micro heater structure to allow for electrical and thermal measurements. TEM compatibility is achieved through a transparent region directly below the suspended nanowire.
