Electroabsoorption-modulated laser light-source module using selective area growth for 10 Gb/s transmission

In this work, a novel light source of strained InGaAsP/InGaAsP MQW EAM monolithically integrated with DFB laser is fabricated by ultra-low-pressure (22 x 10(2) Pa) selective area growth ( SAG) MOCVD technique. Superior device performances have been obtained, sue h as low threshold current of 19 mA, output light power of about 7 mW, and over 16 dB extinction ratio at 5 V applied voltage when coupled into a single mode fiber. Over 10 GHz 3 dB bandwidth in EAM part is developed with a driving voltage of 3 V. After the chip is packaged into a 7-pin butterfly compact module, 10-Gb/s NRZ transmission experiments are successfully performed in standard fiber. A clearly-open eye diagram is achieved in the module output with over 8.3 dB dynamic extinction ratio. Power penalty less than 1.5 dB has been obtained after transmission through 53.3 km of standard fiber, which demonstrates that high-speed, low chirp EAM/DFB integrated light source can be obtained by ultra-low-pressure (22 x 102 Pa) SAG method.

10 GHz optical short pulse generation using tandem electroabsorption modulators monolithically integrated with distributed feedback laser by ultra-low-pressure selective area growth

In this work, a novel light source of tandem InGaAsP/InGaAsP multiple quantum well electroabsoption modulator( EAM ) monolithically integrated with distributed feedback laser is fabricated by ultra-low-pressure ( 22 x 10(2) Pa ) selective area growth metal-organic chemical vapor diposition technique. Superior device performances have been obtained, such as low threshold current of 19 mA, output light power of 4.5 mW, and over 20 dB extinction ratio at 5 V applied voltage when coupled into a single mode fiber. Over 10 GHz 3dB bandwidth in EAM part is developed with a driving voltage of 2 V. Using this sinusoidal voltage driven integrated device, 10 GHz repetition rate pulse with an actual width of 13.7 ps without any compression elements is obtained due to the gate operation effect of tandem EAMs.

Multimode-interference-type thermo-optic variable optical attenuator with a response frequency of 10 kHz

A thermo-optic variable optical attenuator based on a multimode interference coupler principle is fabricated. The propagation loss of the fabricated device is 1.6 to 3.8 dB at the wavelength range 1510 to 1610 nm, which is very near the calculated value (1.2 dB) by the finite difference beam propagation method. The maximum power consumption is 363 mW and the dynamic attenuation range is 0 to 26 dB. The response frequency of the fabricated attenuator is about 10 kHz.

A 10-bit 2GHz current-steering CMOS D/A converter

This paper presents a 2GS/s 10-bit CMOS digital-to-analog converter (DAC). This DAC consists of a unit current-cell matrix for 6MSBs and another unit current-cell matrix for 4LSBs, trading off between the precision and size of the chip. The Current Mode Logic (CML) is used to ensure high speed, and a double Centro-symmetric current matrix is designed by the Q(2) random walk strategy in order to ensure the linearity of the DAC. The DAC occupies 2.2 x 2.2 mm2 of die area, and consumes 790mw at a single 3.3V power supply.

Microwave packaging for 10 Gb/s EML modulators - art. no. 60201O

A novel microwave packaging technique for 10Gb/s electro-absorption modulator integrated with distributed feedback laser (EML) is presented. The packaging parasitics and intrinsic parasitics are both well considered, and the packaging circuit was synthetically designed to compensate for the intrinsic parasitic of the chip. A butterfly-packaged EMI module has been successfully developed to prove that. The small-signal modulation bandwidth of the butterfly-packaged module is about 10 GHz. Optical fiber transmission experiments have shown that the module can be used for 10Gb/s optical transmission system. After transmission through 40km,. the power penalty is less than 1 dBm at a bit-error-rate of 10-12.

Hydride Vapor Phase Epitaxy Growth of Semipolar, 10(1)over-bar(3)over-barGaN on Patterned m-Plane Sapphire

We have investigated the hydride vapor-phase epitaxy growth of (10 (1) over bar(3) over bar)-oriented GaN thick films on patterned sapphire substrates (PSSs) (10 (1) over bar0). From characterization by atomic force microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, double-crystal X-ray diffraction, and photoluminescence (PL), it is determined that the crystalline and optical qualities of (10 (1) over bar(3) over bar) GaN epilayers grown on the cylindrical PSS are better than those on the flat sapphire. However, two main crystalline orientations (10 (1) over bar(3) over bar) and (11 (2) over bar2) dominate the GaN epilayers grown on the pyramidal PSS, demonstrating poor quality. After etching in the mixed acids, these (10 (1) over bar(3) over bar) GaN films are dotted with oblique pyramids, concurrently lining along the < 30 (3) over bar2 > direction, indicative of a typical N-polarity characteristic. Defect-related optical transitions of the (10 (1) over bar(3) over bar) GaN epilayers are identified and detailedly discussed in virtue of the temperature-dependent PL. In particular, an anomalous blueshift-redshift transition appears with an increase in temperature for the broad blue luminescence due to the thermal activation of the shallow level.

Two-color quantum well infrared photodetector simultaneously working at 10-14 mu m

We have demonstrated a two-color quantum well infrared photodetector (QWIP) exhibiting simultaneous photoresponse with cutoff wavelengths at 11.8 and 14.5 mu m, respectively. Strong photocurrent signals are observed at temperature of 77 K. The simultaneous two-color photoresponse is achieved by utilizing a simple design by broadening the width of the quantum well and selecting an appropriate doping density. The two peaks are attributed to the intersubband transitions from the ground state to the first excited state (bound state) and to the fifth excited state (continuum state), respectively.

A 10 Gb/s Directly-Modulated 1.3 mu m InAs/GaAs Quantum-Dot Laser

We demonstrate 10 Gb/s directly-modulated 1.3 mu m InAs quantum-dot (QD) lasers grown on GaAs substrates by molecular beam epitaxy. The active region of the QD lasers consists of five-stacked InAs QD layers. Ridge-waveguide lasers with a ridge width of 4 mu m and a cavity length of 600 mu m are fabricated with standard lithography and wet etching techniques. It is found that the lasers emit at 1293 nm with a very low threshold current of 5 mA at room temperature. Furthermore, clear eye-opening patterns under 10 Gb/s modulation rate at temperatures of up to 50 degrees C are achieved by the QD lasers. The results presented here have important implications for realizing low-cost, low-power-consumption, and high-speed light sources for next-generation communication systems.

Highly efficient and stable organic light-emitting diodes employing MoO3-doped perylene-3, 4, 9, 10-tetracarboxylic dianhydride as hole injection layer

We report highly efficient and stable organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) with MoO3-doped perylene-3, 4, 9, 10-tetracarboxylic dianhydride (PTCDA) as hole injection layer (HIL). A green OLED with structure of ITO/20 wt% MoO3: PTCDA/NPB/Alq(3)/LiF/Al shows a long lifetime of 1012 h at the initial luminance of 2000 cd/m(2), which is 1.3 times more stable than that of the device with MoO3 as HIL. The current efficiency of 4.7 cd/A and power efficiency of 3.7 lm/W at about 100 cd/m(2) have been obtained. The charge transfer complex between PTCDA and MoO3 plays a decisive role in improving the performance of OLEDs.

一 结构因子相角的代数解法晶体结构研究中的相角问题，一直是晶体学工作者努力探求的基本问题。几十年来，关于相角问题的研究已经取得了巨大的进展，直接法的成熟和普遍应用就是这个进展的显著标志。在直接法相角问题研究中，历来存在两种基本方法，即概率法和代数法。当前直接法的迅猛发展，则主要以概率法为基础，其应用的基本公式即是来自∑关系中的∑_2关系和由此发展出的TANGENT公式，并结合一系列的基本理论和辅助公式，从而使直接法的发展一直呈方兴未艾之势。与此形成鲜明对照的是，相角问题的代数法研究则有日趋下降之势，尤其近十年来则显著落后了。作者从近年来的∑关系研究中，看到要解决相角问题，代数法仍然有其潜在的应作价值，并认为在概率法可以得到应用的许多方面，在代数法那里都应找到对应的类似内容，而代数法在研究和应用中所表现出的不同于概率法的那些方面也正是在相角问题研究中最令人感兴趣的问题，这就是我们进行代数法研究的目的和出发点。（一）1.5和2.5阶代数式的提出及对±2~(II)型相角的估算。（二）一般类型相角的估算（三）结构相角通用代数式的推导。代数法不仅可用于结构半不变量O，π型相角的计算，而且可用于非结构半不变量的种种类型相角的估算，其中包括型和一般类型相角，而且其应用效果完全可以和概率法相比拟，在机时利用上前者有一定优势。通用代数式的获得将为代数法的普遍应用和计算机计算创造了方便条件。二稀土杂多酸根配合物K_8H_5[La(SiWMo_(10)O_(39))(SiW_3Mo_8O_(39))]·nH_2O的晶体结构采用低温技术，在-90 ℃的干燥氮气保护下，收集晶体衍射数据，以直接法解出结构。a = 17.485(5), b = 27.096(6), c = 21.642(5)A, β = 107.79(2)°, z = 4。最后的R值为0.097。中心离子La(III)同两个杂多酸根提供的8 个氧配合。而其中的W、Mo同氧的配位情况基本相同，者是与氧六配位，形成变形配位八面体。
