Eigenmode confinement in semiconductor microcavity lasers with an equilateral triangle resonator

We analyze the mode behaviors for semiconductor lasers with an equilateral triangle resonator by deriving the mode field distribution and the eigenvalue equation. The eigenvalue equation shows that the longitudinal mode wavelength interval is equivalent to that of a Fabry-Perot cavity with the cavity length of 1.5a, where a is the side length of the equilateral triangle resonator. The transverse waveguiding is equivalent to as a strip waveguide with the width of root 3a/ 2, and the number of transverse modes supported by the resonator is limited by the total reflection condition on the sides of the equilateral triangle. Semiconductor microcavity laser with an equilateral triangle resonator is suitable to realize single mode operation, and the mode wavelength can be adjusted by changing the side length.

Resonant Enhanced Wave Filter and Waveguide via Surface Plasmons

The authors present an analysis of plasmonic wave filter and curved waveguide, simulated using a 2-D finite-difference time-domain technique. With different dielectric materials or surface structures located on the interface of the metal/dielectric, the resonant enhanced wave filter can divide light waves of different wavelengths and guide them with low losses. And the straight or curved waveguide can confine and guide light waves in a subwavelength scale. Within the 20 mu m simulation region, it is found that the intensity of the guided light at the interface is roughly four times the peak intensity of the incident light.

Surface-enhanced resonant Raman spectroscopy (SERRS) of single-walled carbon nanotubes absorbed on the Ag-coated anodic aluminum oxide (AAO) surface

In this paper, we developed a new kind of substrate, the silver-coated anodic aluminum oxide (AAO), to investigate the characters of surface-enhanced resonant Raman scattering (SERRS) of the dilute single-walled carbon nanotubes. Homogeneous Ag-coated AAO substrate was obtained by decomposing the AgNO3 on the surface of AAO. single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) were directly grown onto this substrate through floating catalyst chemical vapor deposition method (CVD). SERRS of SWNTs was carried out using several different wavelength lasers. The bands coming from metallic SWNTs were significantly enhanced. The two SERRS mechanisms, the "electromagnetic" and "chemical" mechanism, were mainly responsible for the experiment results. (c) 2005 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Greatly enhanced resonant tunneling of photo-excited holes in a three-barrier resonant tunneling structure

By integrating a resonant tunneling diode with a 1.2 mu m-thick slightly doped n-type GaAs layer in a three-barrier, two-well resonant tunneling structure, the resonant tunneling of photo-excited holes exhibits a value of peak-to-valley current ratio (PVCR) as high as 36. A vast number of photo-excited holes generated in this 1.2 mu m-thick slightly doped n-type GaAs layer, and the quantization of hole levels in a 23nm-thick quantum well on the outgoing side of hole tunneling out off the resonant tunneling diode which greatly depressed the valley current of the holes, are thought to be responsible for such greatly enhanced PVCR.

Investigation on anisotropy of vertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers

We have studied the spontaneous emission of polarized excitons in the GaInP/AlGaInP vertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers from 50 K to room temperature. It is observed that the spontaneous emission peak enters and leaves the resonant regime. At the resonant regime, the emission intensities of the perpendicularly and horizontally polarized excitons are enhanced and their proportions are different from that in nonresonant regime. These experimental results are explained by the dressed exciton theory of the semiconductor microcavity device. Based on this theory, the intensity enhancement and the polarization dependence are understood as cooperative emission and the microcavity anisotropy. (C) 2000 American Institute of Physics.

Novel Hybrid Electrocatalyst with Enhanced Performance in Alkaline Media: Hollow Au/Pd Core/Shell Nanostructures with a Raspberry Surface

In this paper, a hollow Au/Pd core/shell nanostructure with a raspberry surface was developed for methanol, ethanol, and formic acid oxidation in alkaline media. The results showed that it possessed better electrocatalyst performance than hollow Au nanospheres or Pd nanoparticles. The nanostructure was fabricated via a two-step method. Hollow Au nanospheres were first synthesized by a galvanic replacement reaction, and then they were coated with a layer of Pd grains. Several characterizations such as transmission electron microscopy (TEM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) were used to investigate the prepared nanostructures.
