Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book contains the proceedings of the NATO Advanced Research Workshop on "Resonant Tunneling in Semiconductors: Physics and Applications", held at Escorial, Spain, on May 14-18, 1990. The tremendous growth in the past two decades in the field of resonant tunneling in semiconductor heterostructures has followed, if not outpaced, the expansion wit nessed in quantum structures in general. Resonant tunneling shares also the multi disciplinary nature of that broad area, with an emphasis on the underlying physics but with a coverage of material systems on the one end and device applications on the other. Indeed, that resonant tunneling provides great flexibility in terms of materials and configurations and that it is inherently a fast process with obvious device impli cations by the presence of a negative differential resistance have contributed to the unrelenting interest in this field. These proceedings consist of 49 refereed articles; they correspond to both invited and contributed talks at the workshop. Because of the intertwinning nature of the subject matter, it has been difficult to subdivide them in well-defined sections. Instead, they are arranged in several broad categories, meant to serve only as guidelines of emphasis on different topics and aspects. The book starts with an introduction to res onant tunneling by providing a perspective of the field in the first article. This is fol lowed by discussions of different material systems with various band-structure effects.

This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 426 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences was first conceived, published, and disseminated by the Center for Information and Numerical Data Analysis and Synthesis (CINDAS)* at Purdue University in 1957, starting its coverage of theses with the academic year 1955. Beginning with Volume 13, the printing and dis semination phases of the activity were transferred to University Microfilms/Xerox of Ann Arbor, Michigan, with the thought that such an arrangement would be more beneficial to the academic and general scientific and technical community. After five years of this joint undertaking we had concluded that it was in the interest of all concerned if the printing and distribution of the volumes were handled by an international publishing house to assure improved service and broader dissemination. Hence, starting with Volume 18, Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences has been disseminated on a worldwide basis by Plenum Publishing Corporation of New York, and in the same year the coverage was broadened to include Canadian universities. All back issues can also be ordered from Plenum. We have reported in Volume 38 (thesis year 1993) a total of 13,787 thesis titles from 22 Canadian and 164 United States universities. We are sure that this broader base for these titles reported will greatly enhance the value of this impor tant annual reference work. While Volume 38 reports theses submitted in 1993, on occasion, certain uni versities do report theses submitted in previous years but not reported at the time.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The outstanding material properties of III-nitride semiconductors has prompted an intense research activity focused on the engineering of resonant tunneling transport within this revolutionary family of wide-bandgap semiconductors. From resonant tunneling diode (RTD) oscillators to quantum cascade lasers (QCLs), nitride devices hold the promise for the realization of high-power ultra-fast sources of terahertz (THz) radiation. Although considerable research effort has been devoted over the past two decades, nitride-based resonant tunneling transport has been demonstrated only during the last four years. In this work, I present the various aspects of heterostructure design, epitaxial growth and device fabrication techniques, which have led to the first unequivocal demonstration of robust resonant tunneling transport and reliable room temperature negative differential conductance in III-Nitride heterostructures. This thesis constitutes a comprehensive work spanning all fronts of experimental, theoretical, and computational research focused on the fundamental physics and engineering of resonant tunneling transport in polar III-nitride semiconductors. Our combined experimental and theoretical approach, allowed us to shed light into the physics of electronic quantum interference phenomena in polar semiconductors which had remained hidden until now, resulting in the discovery of new tunneling features, unique in polar RTDs. The robustness of our experimental data enabled us to track these unique features to the broken inversion symmetry, which generates the built-in spontaneous and piezoelectric polarization fields. After identifying the intimate connection between the polarization fields and the resonant tunneling current, we harness this relationship to develop a completely new approach to measure the magnitude of the internal polarization fields via electron resonant tunneling transport. To get further insight into the asymmetric tunneling injection originated by the polar active region, we present an analytical theory for tunneling transport across polar heterostructures. A general expression for the resonant tunneling current which includes contributions from coherent and sequential tunneling processes is presented. After the application of this new theory to the case of GaN/AlN RTDs, their experimental current-voltage characteristics are reproduced over both bias polarities. This agreement allows us to elucidate the role played by the internal polarization fields on the amplitude of the electronic transmission and broadening of the resonant tunneling line shape. Our analytical model is then employed for the design of high-current density GaN/AlN RTDs which are harnessed as the gain elements of the first microwave oscillators and harmonic multipliers driven by III-nitride RTDs. The findings presented here pave the way for the realization of III-Nitride-based high-speed oscillators and quantum cascade lasers that operate at wavelengths that, until now, remain unreachable by other semiconductor materials.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The title of this book, Advances in Optical and Photonic Devices, encompasses a broad range of theory and applications which are of interest for diverse classes of optical and photonic devices. Unquestionably, recent successful achievements in modern optical communications and multifunctional systems have been accomplished based on composing “building blocks” of a variety of optical and photonic devices. Thus, the grasp of current trends and needs in device technology would be useful for further development of such a range of relative applications. The book is going to be a collection of contemporary researches and developments of various devices and structures in the area of optics and photonics. It is composed of 17 excellent chapters covering fundamental theory, physical operation mechanisms, fabrication and measurement techniques, and application examples. Besides, it contains comprehensive reviews of recent trends and advancements in the field. First six chapters are especially focused on diverse aspects of recent developments of lasers and related technologies, while the later chapters deal with various optical and photonic devices including waveguides, filters, oscillators, isolators, photodiodes, photomultipliers, microcavities, and so on. Although the book is a collected edition of specific technological issues, I strongly believe that the readers can obtain generous and overall ideas and knowledge of the state-of-the-art technologies in optical and photonic devices. Lastly, special words of thanks should go to all the scientists and engineers who have devoted a great deal of time to writing excellent chapters in this book.
