Abstract

Abstracts are not currently available in GtR for all funded research. This is normally because the abstract was not required at the time of proposal submission, but may be because it included sensitive information such as personal details.

Title Research data supporting "Weak localization and weak antilocalization in doped germanium epilayers" 
Description This dataset contains raw txt files used to produce the figures in the article. These files therefore include measurements of three samples of doped germanium epilayers (two of which are n-type and one p-type) made at a range of temperatures. The samples were grown at the University of Warwick, processed at the University of Cambridge and measured in collaboration with Toshiba Research Europe Ltd.

Results and Impact Physics at work takes place every year at the Cavendish Laboratory. A total of 2000 school students visit to listern to talks and demonstrations. My research group gives around 20 presentations to 25 students each year about semiconductor physics.

Heightened interest in science and particular physics amongst local school students. Physics undergraduates are currently at record numbers in Cambridge.
