Time-resolved photoluminescence of lithographically defined quantum dots fabricated by electron beam lithography and wet chemical etching

June 15, 2011
Author(s)
Varun B. Verma, Martin J. Stevens, Kevin L. Silverman, Neville Dias, Akash Garg, James J. Coleman, Richard P. Mirin
We measure the time-resolved photoluminescence characteristics of a novel type of lithographically patterned quantum dot fabricated by electron beam lithography, wet chemical etching, and overgrowth of the barrier layers by metalorganic chemical vapor

CAVITY OPTOMECHANICAL SENSORS

June 5, 2011
Author(s)
Houxun H. Miao, Kartik A. Srinivasan, Matthew T. Rakher, Marcelo I. Davanco, Vladimir A. Aksyuk
We report a novel type of fully integrated optomechanical sensor and demonstrate high sensitivity mechanical displacement measurements on chip. We sense the motion of micro and nano-mechanical devices by near field coupling them to high quality factor

Efficient photon pair sources based on Silicon-on-Insulator microresonators

August 30, 2010
Author(s)
Jun Chen, Zachary H. Levine, Jingyun Fan, Alan L. Migdall
We present a general quantum-mechanical formalism to describe photon pair generation via four-wave mixing in a Silicon-on-Insulator (SOI) microresonator. We also provide design principles for efficient photon-pair generation in a SOI microresonator through

Steady-state and transient photoconductivity in c-axis GaN nanowires grown by nitrogen-plasma-assisted molecular beam epitaxy

February 12, 2010
Author(s)
Norman A. Sanford, Paul T. Blanchard, Kristine A. Bertness, Lorelle Mansfield, John B. Schlager, Aric W. Sanders, Alexana Roshko, Beau Burton, Steven George
Analysis of steady-state and transient photoconductivity measurements at room temperature performed on c-axis oriented GaN nanowires yielded estimates of free carrier concentration, drift, mobility, surface band bending, and surface capture coefficient for

An efficient, optical fiber-based waveguide interface to a single quantum dipole

October 12, 2009
Author(s)
Marcelo I. Davanco, Kartik A. Srinivasan
We theoretically investigate a single emitter embedded in a hybrid optical waveguide that proves highly efficient, optical fiber access to the dipole transition. A photoluminescence collection efficiency above 70 \% and an approximately 15 dB transmission

Investigations of a coherently driven semiconductor optical cavity QED system

September 30, 2008
Author(s)
Kartik A. Srinivasan, Christopher P. Michael, Raviv Perahia, Oskar Painter
Chip-based cavity QED devices consisting of a self-assembled InAs quantum dot (QD) coupled to a high quality factor GaAs microdisk cavity are coherently probed through the optical channel using a fiber taper waveguide. We highlight one particularly

High Temperature Electrical Resistance of substrate-supported Single Walled Carbon Nanotubes

January 1, 2008
Author(s)
Richard E. Cavicchi, C Avedisian, Paul M. McEuen, Xinjian Zhou, Wilbur S. Hurst, Joseph T. Hodges
We report the electrical characteristics of two substrate-supported metallic single walled carbon nanotubes (SWNT) at temperatures up to 573 K over a range of bias voltages for zero gate voltage in air under atmospheric pressure. At low voltages or high
