Ledge-flow-controlled catalyst interface dynamics during Si nanowire growth.
The Si nanowire work received industrial funding from Nokia ("In-situ Doping of Si Nanowires", Mar. 2009-Sep. 2010, GBP42k, Ref: NMZD/146) and from a CAPE strategic research project ("NanoSi", Mar. 2008-Mar. 2010, GBP140k, Ref: RG44606). Hoffmann was also awarded a European Research Council (ERC) Starting Independent Researcher Grant ("InSituNano", Dec. 2011-Nov. 2016, GBP1.21M, Ref: 279342) for this line of research on novel in-situ metrology for nanomaterials. It resulted in 5 invited talks at major international conferences to present this work [TNT 2008 and 2010 (both Keynotes), JST Int. Symp. on Atom-scale Si Hybrid Nanotechnologies 2010, IC4N 2011, NDTCS 2011 (Plenary)].
