THIN-FILM BIPBSRCACUO DIRECT-CURRENT SUPERCONDUCTING QUANTUM INTERFERING DEVICES OPERATING AT 78-K

Direct current SQUIDs (superconducting quantum interference devices) have been successfully fabricated by using a Pb-doped BiSrCaCuO superconducting thin film made by mixed evaporation of a single source composed of related components with a resistance heater. The dc SQUID comprises a square washer with a small hole. These SQUIDs show perfectly periodic voltage-flux characteristics without magnetic shield, that is, typically, the flux noise and energy resolution at a frequency range from dc to 1 Hz and at 78 K being 1.7 x 10(-3) PHI-0/ square-root Hz and 3.6 x 10(-26) J/Hz, respectively. Meanwhile, we have found out that one of the SQUIDs still was able to operate on flux-locked mode without bias currents and showed voltage-flux second harmonic characteristics. This phenomenon is not well understood, but it may be related to I-V (current-voltage) characteristics of the dc SQUID.

Characteristics of InAs epilayers for Hall effect devices grown on GaAs substrates by MBE

InAs thin films with good characteristics were grown on GaAs (0 0 1) substrates by molecular beam epitaxy. Cross-sectional transmission electron microscopy indicated that most of the threading dislocations formed by the interaction of misfit dislocations are annihilated above a small thickness. The high electron mobility and small temperature dependence of InAs epilayers are useful for magnetic sensors which is demonstrated by the properties of Hall effect devices.

Zn-doped InGaAs Base Heterojunction Bipolar Transistors Grown by Low Pressure Metal Organic Chemical Vapor Deposition

High performance InP/InGaAs heterojunction bipolar transistors(HBTs) have been widely used in high-speed electronic devices and optoelectronic integrated circuits. InP-based HBTs were fabricated by low pressure metal organic chemical vapor deposition(MOCVD) and wet chemical etching. The sub-collector and collector were grown at 655 ℃ and other layers at 550 ℃. To suppress the Zn out-diffusion in HBT, base layer was grown with a 16-minute growth interruption. Fabricated HBTs with emitter size of 2.5×20 μm~2 showed current gain of 70~90, breakdown voltage(BV_(CE0))>2 V, cut-off frequency(f_T) of 60 GHz and the maximum relaxation frequency(f_(MAX)) of 70 GHz.

An All-E-Beam Lithography Process for the Patterning of 2D Photonic Crystal Waveguide Devices

We present an all-e-beam lithography (EBL) process for the patterning of photonic crystal waveguides.The whole device structures are exposed in two steps. Holes constituting the photonic crystal lattice and defects are first exposed with a small exposure step size (less than 10nm). With the introduction of the additional proximity effect to compensate the original proximity effect, the shape, size, and position of the holes can be well controlled.The second step is the exposure of the access waveguides at a larger step size (about 30nm) to improve the scan speed of the EBL. The influence of write-field stitching error can be alleviated by replacing the original waveguides with tapered waveguides at the joint of adjacent write-fields. It is found experimentally that a higher exposure efficiency is achieved with a larger step size;however,a larger step size requires a higher dose.

A Radial Stub Test Circuit for Microwave Power Devices

With the principles of microwave circuits and semiconductor device physics, two microwave power device test circuits combined with a test fixture are designed and simulated, whose properties are evaluated by a parameter network analyzer within the frequency range from 3 to 8GHz. The simulation and experimental results verify that the test circuit with a radial stub is better than that without. As an example, a C-band AlGaN/GaN HEMT microwave power device is tested with the designed circuit and fixture. With a 5.4GHz microwave input signal, the maximum gain is 8.75dB, and the maximum output power is 33.2dBm.

Optimization of InGaAs quantum dots for optoelectronic applications

Quantum dot infrared photodetectors (QDIP) are in the center of research interest nowadays. However the real QDIP is inferior to those predicted in theory, in which the dot density is much higher than those reported. Through optimizing the growth conditions, we realized the control of high-density quantum dot growth. This will be very useful for future QDIP development.

MOCVD growth of cubic GaN: Materials and devices

Many impressive progresses have been made recently on the growth of cubic-phase GaN by MBE and MOCVD. In this paper, some of our recent progress will be reviewed, including the growth of high quality cubic InGaN films, InGaN/GaN heterostructure blue and green LEDs. Cubic-phase GaN films were grown on GaAs (100) substrates by MOCVD. Growth conditions were optimized to obtain pure cubic phase GaN films up to a thickness of 4 mum. An anomalous compressive strain was found in the as-grown GaN films in spite of a smaller lattice constant for GaN compared with that of GaAs substrates. The photoluminescence FWHM of high quality InGaN epilayers was less than 100 meV The InGaN/GaN heterostructure blue LED has intense electroluminescence with a FWHM of 20 nm.
