Title Two-state competition in 1.3 μm multilayer InAs/InGaAs quantum dot lasers Type Journal Article
Year 2009 Publication Applied Physics Letters Abbreviated Journal Appl. Phys. Lett.
Volume 95 Issue 19 Pages 3
Keywords 2DEG
Abstract (down) The competition of ground state (GS) and excited state (ES) is investigated from the as-grown and thermally annealed 1.3 μm ten-layer p-doped InAs/GaAs quantum dot (QD) lasers. The modal gain competition between GS and ES are measured and analyzed around the ES threshold characteristics. Our results show that two-state competition is more significant in devices with short cavity length operating at high temperature. By comparing the as-grown and annealed devices, we demonstrate enhanced GS and suppressed ES lasing from the QD laser annealed at 600 °C for 15 s.

Title A weakly coupled semiconductor superlattice as a potential for a radio frequency modulated terahertz light emitter Type Journal Article
Year 2012 Publication Appl. Phys. Lett. Abbreviated Journal Appl. Phys. Lett.
Volume 100 Issue 13 Pages 131104 (1 to 4)
Keywords semiconductor superlattice
Abstract (down) The bolometer response to THz radiation from a weakly coupled GaAs/AlGaAs superlattice biased in the self-oscillations regime has been observed. The bolometer signal is modulated with the frequency equal to the fundamental frequency of superlattice self-oscillations. The frequency spectrum of the bolometer signal contains higher harmonics whose frequency is a multiple of fundamental frequency of self-oscillations.

Title Single-photon experiments at telecommunication wavelengths using nanowire superconducting detectors Type Journal Article
Year 2007 Publication Appl. Phys. Lett. Abbreviated Journal Appl. Phys. Lett.
Volume 91 Issue 3 Pages 031106 (1 to 3)
Keywords SSPD, SNSPD, APD
Abstract (down) The authors report fiber-coupled superconducting single-photon detectors with specifications that exceed those of avalanche photodiodes, operating at telecommunication wavelength, in sensitivity, temporal resolution, and repetition frequency. The improved performance is demonstrated by measuring the intensity correlation function g(2)(τ) of single-photon states at 1300nm produced by single semiconductor quantum dots.

Title Low frequency terahertz quantum cascade laser operating from 1.6 to 1.8 THz Type Journal Article
Year 2006 Publication Applied Physics Letters Abbreviated Journal Appl. Phys. Lett.
Volume 89 Issue Pages 231121(1-3)
Keywords QCL, 360 uW at 1.6 THz
Abstract (down) The authors report a GaAs/Al0.1Ga0.9As quantum cascade laser based on a bound-to-continuum transition optimized for low frequency operation. High tunability of the gain curve is achieved by the Stark effect and laser emission is measured between 1.6 and 1.8 THz. Pulsed mode operation up to 95 K and continuous wave operation up to 80 K are reported. The dynamical range in current is as high as 43%.

Title Superconducting single photon detectors made by local oxidation with an atomic force microscope Type Journal Article
Year 2007 Publication Appl. Phys. Lett. Abbreviated Journal Appl. Phys. Lett.
Volume 90 Issue 19 Pages 191116 (1 t0 3)
Keywords SSPD
Abstract (down) The authors present a fabrication technique of superconducting single photon detectors made by local oxidation of niobium nitride ultrathin films. Narrow superconducting meander lines are obtained by direct writing of insulating niobium oxynitride lines through the films using voltage-biased tip of an atomic force microscope. Due to the 30nm resolution of the lithographic technique, the filling factor of the meander line can be made substantially higher than detector of similar geometry made by electron beam lithography, thus leading to increased quantum efficiency. Single photon detection regime of these devices is demonstrated at 4.2K.
