We report the optical properties of high quality V-groove GaAs/Al0.3Ga0.7.As quantum wires (QWRs) with different thicknesses of the GaAs layer. The systematic investigation of photoluminescence (PL) and photoluminescence excitation (PLE) spectra as a funct ...
In this Thesis we study several aspects of potential scattering in non-relativistic quantum mechanics. In the first part, we study the concept of time delay. More precisely, after an elementary introduction to the theory (chapter I), we clarify in chapter ...
Gyrotrons are a class of high-power vacuum-electronics microwave sources, which are envisioned to play an important role in the domain of magnetically confined fusion plasmas. Indeed, only gyrotrons are capable of producing continuous electromagnetic waves ...
Should we judge the quality of the class by the grades the students and teacher get at the end of the semester or how the group collaborated during the semester towards acquiring new knowledge? Up until recently, the later approach was all too inaccessible ...
In this thesis we will treat the Dirichlet problem for systems of implicit equations, i.e. where Ω ⊂ Rn is an open set, u : Ω → Rm, Fi : Ω × Rm × Rm×n → R, m,n ≥ 1, are continuous functions and φ, the boundary datum, is given. At first we will be intereste ...
In this work, we analyze the behavior of the band-to-band tunneling distance between electron and hole subbands resulting from field-induced quantum confinement in the heterogate electron-hole bilayer tunnel field-effect transistor. We show that, analogous ...
Optical trapping, discovered in the 70's, allows moving and stabilizing small objects which sizes varies from atoms to particles of several microns. This technique, based on momentum conservation, is particularly well suited for manipulating biological mat ...
Semiconductor quantum wires (QWRs) and quantum dots (QDs) are nanoscale heterostructures, which form fascinating low-dimensional systems for fundamental studies of quantum-mechanical effects and are attractive candidates for integration into optoelectronic ...
In biological investigations, many protocols using optical trapping call for the possibility to trap a large number of particles simultaneously. Interference fringes provide a solution for massively parallel micro-manipulation of mesoscopic objects. Concur ...
