It was about 125 years ago that the light bulb was commercialized by Thomas Edison. No doubt a brilliant invention at the time, today its low power conversion efficiency is one of the reasons why lighting in the western world has such high energy consumpti ...
Self-assembled quantum-dots (QDs) represent a distributed ensemble of zero dimensional structures with a near-singular density of states. Implemented as the active medium in a diode laser their unique properties lead to improved and often novel characteris ...
Gallium Nitride (GaN) and its ternary alloys with aluminium and indium have met a growing interest in the last decade. These semiconductors have a large direct bandgap and can be doped with either silicon (Si) for n-type and magnesium (Mg) for p-type layer ...
In this paper, we present a systematic study of the effect of growth parameters on the structural and optical properties of InAs quantum dot (QD) grown under Stranski-Krastanov mode by molecular beam epitaxy. The dot density is significantly reduced from 1 ...
Photonic crystal (PC) cavities enable localization of light into volumes (V) below a cubic optical wavelength (smaller than any other types of optical resonators) with high quality (Q) factors [1]. This permits a strong interaction of light and matter, whi ...
We report a low-temperature photoluminescence study of a series of AlxGal-xN/GaN quantum wells of various widths L and with x ranging from 0.11 to 0.25, grown by molecular beam epitaxy on silicon (111) substrates. Such quantum wells are subject to an impor ...
Rare-earth-ion doped KY(WO4)2 (hereafter KYW:RE) is a promising material for novel solid-state lasers. Its low laser threshold, high laser efficiency, and third-order nonlinear effects have stimulated research towards miniaturized thin-film waveguide laser ...
Semiconductor quantum wires (QWRs) are promising structures for optoelectronics applications, since they can provide quantum confinement for charge carriers in two dimensions. The advantage that they offer over conventional quantum wells (QWs) is due to th ...
Photoluminescence intensity and emission wavelength of InAsP/InGaAsP and InGaAs/InGaAsP multi-quantum well (MQW) laser structures grown by chemical beam epitaxy (CBE) at 460 degrees C and V/III ratio of 2 are considerably affected by annealing at temperatu ...
We study the coherent optical response of a very high-finesse microcavity with a single quantum well by means of degenerate subpicosecond pump-probe spectroscopy. The dynamics of the ac Stark effect versus Pump intensity is investigated upon tuning the emp ...
