We report on the electric field effects in photoluminescence (PL) and PL excitation (PLE) measurements of reverse-biased GaAs V-groove quantum wires. We observe large redshifts (9 meV at 265 kV/cm) of PL and PLE peaks as well as field dependent intensity a ...
(Al,Ga)N/GaN quantum wells have been studied by temperature-dependent luminescence and reflectivity. The samples were grown by molecular beam epitaxy on (0001) sapphire substrates, and well widths were varied from 3 to 15 monolayers (ML's) with a 2-ML incr ...
We report a new and surprising enhancement of the electric field at the Si/SiO2 interface following the cessation of intense pulsed near-infrared radiation. The phenomenon, measured by optical second-harmonic generation, occurs only for photon energies and ...
Interferometric measurements of electric field-induced displacements in piezoelectric thin films using single-beam and double-beam optical detection schemes are reported. It is shown that vibrational response measured with a single-beam interferometer incl ...
We discuss the potential and limitations of Light-coupling masks for high-resolution subwavelength optical lithography. Using a three-dimensional fully vectorial numerical approach based on Green's tensor technique, the near-field distribution of the elect ...
Fatigue phenomena occurring in Pb(ZrxTi1-x)O-3 ferroelectric thin-film capacitors (FECAP) with Pt electrodes are studied by means of conduction measurements in the cold-field-emission (tunneling) regime. We have determined that conduction in virgin FECAPs ...
Sol-gel processing parameters of Pb0.99Zr0.55Sn0.37Ti0.06Nb0.02O3 thin films were studied. Effects of H2O, HNO3 and formamide additives on solution gelation and film properties were investigated. Thin films were prepared on Ti/Pt and Ta/Pt metallized Si su ...
A simple phenomenological model with two coupled structural and ferroelectric order parameters is under consideration. The small-signal dielectric response, dielectric response to a strong electric field (hysteresis phenomena included), and the phase diagr ...
The piezoelectric properties of the bismuth titanate niobate Bi7Ti4NbO21 have been studied. The two phase transitions at 677 degrees and 856 degrees C are analyzed based on the measured piezoelectric properties. It is shown that the Bi7Ti4NbO21 compound is ...
Dielectric properties of perovskites are studied both to gain insight into fundamental aspects of the freezing of polar disorder, and to investigate their technological potential. The dynamics of freezing of polar disorder is investigated in single crystal ...
