Probing the critical electronic properties of III-V nanowires using optical pump-terahertz probe spectroscopy

Optical pump-terahertz probe spectroscopy was used to study the key electronic properties of GaAs, InAs and InP nanowires at room temperature. Of all nanowires studied, InAs nanowires exhibited the highest mobilities of 6000 cm2V-1s-1. InP nanowires featured the longest photoconductivity lifetimes and an exceptionally low surface recombination velocity of 170 cm/s. © 2013 IEEE.

Low cost optical access networks using 20 Gchip/s electronic CMDA

This paper describes electronically processed CDMA techniques which allow Gb/s data rates for each user in passive optical networks. We will present recent progress including a 16 chip Walsh-code system operating at 18 Gchip/s supporting up to 16 users. © 2009 IEEE.

Effects of electron-electron interactions on the electronic Raman scattering of graphite in high magnetic fields

We report the observation of strongly temperature (T)-dependent spectral lines in electronic Raman-scattering spectra of graphite in a high magnetic field up to 45 T applied along the c axis. The magnetic field quantizes the in-plane motion, while the out-of-plane motion remains free, effectively reducing the system dimension from 3 to 1. Optically created electron-hole pairs interact with, or shake up, the one-dimensional Fermi sea in the lowest Landau subbands. Based on the Tomonaga-Luttinger liquid theory, we show that interaction effects modify the spectral line shape from (ω-Δ)-1/2 to (ω-Δ)2α-1/2 at T = 0. At finite T, we predict a thermal broadening factor that increases linearly with T. Our model reproduces the observed T-dependent line shape, determining the electron-electron interaction parameter α to be ∼0.05 at 40 T. © 2014 American Physical Society.

Statistical study of a novel launch scheme for highperformance electronic-equalized multimode-fiber links

A novel launch scheme is proposed for multimode-fiber (MMF) links. Enhanced performance in 10 Gb/s MMF links using electronic equalization is demonstrated by statistical analysis of installed-base fiber and an experimental investigation. © 2007 Optical Society of America.
