Selective Area Growth InGaAsP by MOVPE

The wide stripe (ISjum) selective area growth (SAG) of InGaAsP by low pressure MOVPE is systematically investigated. The characteristics of the growth ratios,thickness enhancement factors .bandgap modulation,and composition modulation vary with the growth conditions such as mask width,growth pressure. Flux of III-group precursors are outlined and the rational mechanism behind SAG MOVPE is explained. In addition,the surface spike of the SAG InGaAsP is shown and the course of it is given by the variation of V /III .

1.5μm Self-Aligned Spotsize Converter Integrated DFB Fabricated by Selective Area Grown MOVPE

High performance 1.57μm spotsize converter monolithically integrated DFB is fabricated by the technique of self-aligned selective area growth. The upper optical confinement layer and the butt-coupled tapered thickness waveguide are regrown simultaneously, which not only offeres the separated optimization of the active region and the integrated spotsize converter, but also reduces the difficulty of the butt-joint selective regrowth. The threshold current is as low as 4.4mA. The output power at 49mA is 10.1mW. The side mode suppression ratio (SMSR) is 33.2dB. The vertical and horizontal far field divergence angles are as small as 9° and 15° respectively, the 1dB misalignment tolerance are 3.6μm and 3.4μm.

Microorganisms linked to Neoproterozoic microspar carbonate sedimentation in the Jilin-Liaoning area

Molar-tooth carbonate refers to a sort of rock that has ptygmatical folded structure comparable to the ivory. This kind of carbonate exists in a special time range (from Middle to Neoproterozoic). Its origin and the possibility to use it in stratigraphic correlation of the paleocontinent is the key task of the IGCP447, a project on Proterozoic molar tooth carbonates and the evolution of the earth (2001-2005). The importance lies in that the molar-tooth structure is the key to solving problems related to Precambrian biological and global geochemical events. The molar-tooth structure is associated with microorganisms. Development and recession of such carbonates have relations with the evolution process of early lives and abrupt changes in sea carbonate geochemistry. In recent years, based on researches on petrology, geochemistry and Sr isotope of molar-tooth carbonate in the Jilin-Liaoning and Xuzhou-Huaiyang area, the authors hold that it can be used as a marker for stratigraphic sequence and sedimentary facies analyses.

Tunable MQW-DBR lasers using selective area growth

The tunable ridge waveguide distributed Bragg reflector (DBR) lasers designed for wavelength-division-multiplex (WDM) communication systems at 1.55 um by using selective area growth (SAG) is reported. The threshold current of the DBR laser is 62mA and the output power is more than 8mW. The isolation resistance between the active region and the Bragg region is 30K Ohm. The total tuning range is 6.5nm and this DBR laser can provide 6 continuous standard WDM channels with 100GHz channel spacing; in the tuning range, the single mode suppression ratio (SMSR) is maintained more than 32dB and the maximum output power variation is less than 3dB.

Design, simulation and testing of large area silicon drift detectors and detector array for X-ray spectroscopy

Large area (25 mm(2)) silicon drift detectors and detector arrays (5x5) have been designed, simulated, and fabricated for X-ray spectroscopy. On the anode side, the hexagonal drift detector was designed with self-biasing spiral cathode rings (p(+)) of fixed resistance between rings and with a grounded guard anode to separate surface current from the anode current. Two designs have been used for the P-side: symmetric self-biasing spiral cathode rings (p(+)) and a uniform backside p(+) implant. Only 3 to 5 electrodes are needed to bias the detector plus an anode for signal collection. With graded electrical potential, a sub-nanoamper anode current, and a very small anode capacitance, an initial FWHM of 1.3 keV, without optimization of all parameters, has been obtained for 5.9 keV Fe-55 X-ray at RT using a uniform backside detector.
