The main objective of is to investigate the feasibility of using magnetron sputtering to grow ternary group-III nitride nanorods with the focus on their enhanced piezoelectric properties. The work will be composed of four parts: 1) gaining deep understanding of sputter process parameter space through literature and experiment, 2) structural analysis of the nanorods, 3) investigation of various seed layers and structured templates to gain better control of nanorod distribution, and 4) participate in design and fabrication of test structures for piezoelectric, dielectric, and other types of characterization, relevant to energy harvesting, sensing, and other applications.
