Quantum dot lasers - history and future prospects

January 29, 2021
Author(s)
Richard Mirin, John E. Bowers, Justin Norman
We describe the initial efforts to use molecular beam epitaxy to grow InAs quantum dots on GaAs via the Stranski-Krastanow transition. We then discuss the initial efforts to use these quantum dots to demonstrate quantum dot lasers. We discuss the

Recent advances in superconducting nanowire single-photon detector technology for exoplanet transit spectroscopy in the mid-infrared

January 12, 2021

Varun Verma, Jeff Chiles, Adriana Lita, Richard Mirin, Sae Woo Nam, Yao Zhai, Adam McCaughan, Emma Wollman, Alexander Walter, Boris Korzh, Jason Allmaras, Ekkehart Schmidt, S. Frasca, Matthew Shaw
Superconducting nanowire single-photon detectors, or SNSPDs, have become the highest-performing class of single-photon detectors in the near-IR. At telecom wavelengths, SNSPDs have demonstrated detection effi- ciency above 95%, intrinsic dark count rates

Unraveling the compositional heterogeneity and carrier dynamics of alkali cation doped 3D/2D perovskites with improved stability

December 11, 2020
Author(s)
Ming Chun Tang, Siyuan Zhang, Nhan V. Nguyen, Edwin J. Heilweil, Christina A. Hacker, Timothy J. Magnanelli, Thomas D. Anthopoulos
Preventing the degradation of hybrid perovskite by humid air remains a challenge for their future commercial utilization. 3D/2D perovskites with hierarchical architecture have attracted significant attention due to their promising power conversion

The joint automated repository for various integrated simulations (JARVIS) for data-driven materials design

November 12, 2020

Kamal Choudhary, Kevin Garrity, Andrew C. Reid, Brian DeCost, Adam Biacchi, Angela R. Hight Walker, Zachary Trautt, Jason Hattrick-Simpers, Aaron Kusne, Andrea Centrone, Albert Davydov, Francesca Tavazza, Jie Jiang, Ruth Pachter, Gowoon Cheon, Evan Reed, Ankit Agrawal, Xiaofeng Qian, Vinit Sharma, Houlong Zhuang, Sergei Kalinin, Ghanshyam Pilania, Pinar Acar, Subhasish Mandal, David Vanderbilt, Karin Rabe
The Joint Automated Repository for Various Integrated Simulations (JARVIS) is an integrated infrastructure to accelerate materials discovery and design using density functional theory (DFT), classical force-fields (FF), and machine learning (ML) techniques

Optical and Mechanical Design of a Telescope for Lunar Spectral Irradiance Measurements from a High-Altitude Aircraft

September 8, 2020
Author(s)
Clarence Zarobila, Steven Grantham, Steven W. Brown, John T. Woodward IV, Stephen Maxwell, Dana R. Defibaugh, Thomas Larason, Kevin Turpie
We have designed a non-imaging telescope for measurement of the spectral irradiance of the moon. The telescope was integrated into a wing pod of a NASA ER-2 research aircraft to measure lunar spectral irradiance during flight. The telescope and support

Ultrafast waveform metrology: A first international comparison

August 24, 2020

Mark Bieler, Paul Struszewski, Ari Feldman, Jeffrey Jargon, Paul D. Hale, Pengwei Gong, Wen Xie, Chuntao Yang, Zhigang Feng, Kejia Zhao, Zhijun Yang
We report on the first international comparison in ultrafast waveform metrology. To this end, the frequency and time responses of a photodiode with a nominal bandwidth of 100 GHz have been measured by several National Metrology Institutes during the last

High-brightness lasing at submicrometer enabled by droop-free fin light-emitting diodes (LEDs)

August 14, 2020
Author(s)
Robin P. Hansen, Amit K. Agrawal, Michael Shur, Jerry Tersoff, Babak Nikoobakht, Yuqin Zong
"Efficiency droop," i.e., a decline in brightness of light-emitting diodes (LEDs) at high electrical currents, limits the performance of all commercial LEDs and has limited the output power of submicrometer LEDs and lasers to nanowatts. We present a fin p

Microresonator enhanced, waveguide coupled emission from silicon defect centers for superconducting optoelectronic networks

July 10, 2020
Author(s)
Alexander N. Tait, Sonia M. Buckley, Jeffrey M. Shainline, Adam N. McCaughan, Jeffrey T. Chiles, Sae Woo Nam, Richard P. Mirin
Superconducting optoelectronic networks could achieve scales unmatched in hardware-based neuromorphic computing. After summarizing recent progress in this area, we report new results in cryogenic silicon photonic light sources, components central to these
