Title Mechanism of formation of texture and its influence on the strength of thermoelectric p-Bi0.5Sb1.5Te3 Type Journal Article
Year 2009 Publication Physics of the Solid State Abbreviated Journal Phys. Sol. St.
Volume 51 Issue 4 Pages (down) 747-749
Keywords
Abstract It is established that, in preparing p-Bi0.5Sb1.5Te3 by vertical zone melting, in addition to the directional texture (characteristic of materials exhibiting a highly anisotropic growth rate) in which the cleavage planes of crystal grains are parallel to the direction of propagation of the crystallization front, other texture types can arise, in which the orientation of grain cleavage planes is ordered in a cross-sectional plane of the ingot. Two types of such textures, “radial” and “circular,” were observed. In a radial texture, the lines of intersection of grain cleavage planes with a cross-sectional plane of the ingot are oriented along radii of this cross section and, in a circular texture, these lines of intersection are oriented approximately perpendicular to a radius crossing the grain. The formation of a radial texture is associated with rotation of the ampoule with the crystallizing substance about its vertical axis causing centrifugal flows of the melt. The formation of a circular texture is associated with the orientation effect of the ampoule walls and with circular motion of the melt during torsional oscillations of the ampoule about the vertical axis. Ingots with a radial texture exhibit much lower resistance to splitting along their axis than ingots with a circular texture do. An explanation is provided for this fact.

Title Noise equivalent temperature difference of a superconducting integrated terahertz receiver Type Journal Article
Year 2009 Publication J. Commun. Technol. Electron. Abbreviated Journal J. Commun. Technol. Electron.
Volume 54 Issue 6 Pages (down) 716-720
Keywords SIS mixer SIR NETD, FFO, harmonic mixer
Abstract The dependence of the noise equivalent temperature difference (NETD) of a superconducting integrated receiver (SIR) on the receiver noise temperature and the inputsignal level has been investigated. An unprecedented NETD of 13±2 mK has been measured at a SIR noise temperature of 200 K, intermediate-frequency bandwidth of 4 GHz, and time constant of 1 s. With a decrease in the input signal, an improvement in the NETD is observed. This effect is explained by a reduction in the influence of the instabilities of the receiver power supply and the amplification circuit that occur when the input signal is decreased.

Title Single-photon detectors for optical quantum information applications Type Journal Article
Year 2009 Publication Nature Photonics Abbreviated Journal Nature Photonics
Volume 3 Issue Pages (down) 696-705
Keywords SPD
Abstract The past decade has seen a dramatic increase in interest in new single-photon detector technologies. A major cause of this trend has undoubtedly been the push towards optical quantum information applications such as quantum key distribution. These new applications place extreme demands on detector performance that go beyond the capabilities of established single-photon detectors. There has been considerable effort to improve conventional photon-counting detectors and to transform new device concepts into workable technologies for optical quantum information applications. This Review aims to highlight the significant recent progress made in improving single-photon detector technologies, and the impact that these developments will have on quantum optics and quantum information science.

Title Малошумящий широкополосный терагерцовый смеситель на эффекте электронного разогрева в плёнке NbN Type Journal Article
Year 2009 Publication Известия высших учебных заведений. Радиофизика Abbreviated Journal
Volume 52 Issue 8 Pages (down) 641-648
Keywords HEB mixer, in-situ contacts, noise temperature, conversion gain bandwidth, diffusion cooling channel
Abstract Разработан и исследован смеситель на горячих электронах, изготовленный из двуслойной плёнки NbN-Au, осаждённой на кремневую подложку in situ. Двухполосная шумовая температура устройства составила 750 К на частоте 2.5 ТГц. Измерения эффективности преобразования для смесителя длиной 0.112 мкм вблизи температуры сверхпроводящего перехода показали полосу промежуточных частот около 6.5 ГГц. Эти результаты являются рекордными и были получены за счёт улучшения контактов между чувствительным элементом и спиральной антенной при замене технологического маршрута с нанесением слоёв NbN и Au в отдельных процессах на технологический процесс, в котором данные слои наносятся in situ без нарушения вакуума.

Title Low-noise wide-band hot-electron bolometer mixer based on an NbN film Type Journal Article
Year 2009 Publication Radiophys. Quant. Electron. Abbreviated Journal
Volume 52 Issue 8 Pages (down) 576-582
Keywords HEB mixer, in-situ contacts, noise temperature, conversion gain bandwidth, diffusion cooling channel
Abstract We develop and study a hot-electron bolometer mixer made of a two-layer NbN–Au film in situ deposited on a silicon substrate. The double-sideband noise temperature of the mixer is 750 K at a frequency of 2.5 THz. The conversion efficiency measurements show that at the superconducting transition temperature, the intermediate-frequency bandwidth amounts to about 6.5 GHz for a mixer 0.112 μm long. These record-breaking characteristics are attributed to the improved contacts between a sensitive element and a helical antenna and are reached due to using the in situ deposition of NbN and Au layers at certain stages of the process.

Title Individual topological tunnelling events of a quantum field probed through their macroscopic consequences Type Journal Article
Year 2009 Publication Nature Phys. Abbreviated Journal Nature Phys.
Volume 5 Issue Pages (down) 503-508
Keywords phase slips, superconducting nanowires
Abstract Phase slips are topological fluctuations that carry the superconducting order-parameter field between distinct current-carrying states. Owing to these phase slips, superconducting nanowires acquire electrical resistance. In such wires, it is well known that at higher temperatures phase slips occur through the process of thermal barrier-crossing by the order-parameter field. At low temperatures, the general expectation is that phase slips should proceed through quantum tunnelling events, which are known as quantum phase slips. However, resistive measurements have produced evidence both for and against the occurrence of quantum phase slips. Here, we report evidence for the observation of individual quantum phase-slip events in homogeneous ultranarrow wires at high bias currents. We accomplish this through measurements of the distribution of switching currents for which the width exhibits a rather counter-intuitive, monotonic increase with decreasing temperature. Importantly, measurements show that in nanowires with larger critical currents, quantum fluctuations dominate thermal fluctuations up to higher temperatures.

Title Chemosensors in environmental monitoring: challenges in ruggedness and selectivity Type Journal Article
Year 2009 Publication Analytical and Bioanalytical Chemistry Abbreviated Journal Anal Bioanal Chem
Volume 393 Issue 2 Pages (down) 467-472
Keywords environmental monitoring, in situ sensing, artificial recognition materials, real-life application, molecular imprinting, QCM
Abstract Environmental analysis is a potential key application for chemical sensors owing to their inherent ability to detect analytes on-line and in real time in distributed systems. Operating a chemosensor in a natural environment poses substantial challenges in terms of ruggedness, long-term stability and calibration. This article highlights current trends of achieving both the necessary selectivity and ruggedness: one way is deploying sensor arrays consisting of robust broadband sensors and extracting information via chemometrics. If using only a single sensor is desired, molecularly imprinted polymers offer a straightforward way for designing artificial recognition materials. Molecularly imprinted polymers can be utilized in real-life environments, such as water and air, aiming at detecting analytes ranging from small molecules to entire cells.

Title Optical Antennas Type Journal Article
Year 2009 Publication Advances in Optics and Photonics Abbreviated Journal Adv. Opt. Photon
Volume 1 Issue Pages (down) 438-483
Keywords optical antennas
Abstract Optical antennas are an emerging concept in physical optics. Similar to radiowave

and microwave antennas, their purpose is to convert the energy of free propagating radiation to localized energy, and vice versa. Optical antennas exploit the unique properties of metal nanostructures, which behave as strongly coupled plasmas at ptical frequencies. The tutorial provides an account of the historical origins and the basic concepts and parameters associated with optical antennas. It also reviews recent work in the field and discusses areas of application, such as light-emitting devices, photovoltaics, and spectroscopy.
