Wavelength tunable InGaN/GaN nano-ring LEDs via nano-sphere lithography

In this research, nano-ring light-emitting diodes (NRLEDs) with different wall width (120 nm, 80 nm and 40 nm) were fabricated by specialized nano-sphere lithography technology. Through the thinned wall, the effective bandgaps of nano-ring LEDs can be precisely tuned by reducing the strain inside the active region. Photoluminescence (PL) and time-resolved PL measurements indicated the lattice-m...

Tunable graphene-based plasmonic waveguides: nano modulators and nano attenuators

O R IG IN A L P A P ER Abstract A modulation principle and method, the gatevoltage-controlled mode-guiding switching/mode-cutoff mechanism, is proposed and numerically investigated to achieve the modulation/attenuation function. The propagating attenuation of the graphene 2D waveguide as a function of the Fermi level of the cladding is analyzed. Different modes with low or high attenuations in ...

Nano-Electromechanical Optoelectronic Tunable Lasers

Tunable thermal switching via DNA-based nano-devices.

DNA has a well-defined structural transition--the denaturation of its double-stranded form into two single strands--that strongly affects its thermal transport properties. We show that, according to a widely implemented model for DNA denaturation, one can engineer DNA 'heattronic' devices that have a rapidly increasing thermal conductance over a narrow temperature range across the denaturation ...

3D Simulation of Nano-Imprint Lithography

A proof of concept study of the feasibility of fully three-dimensional (3D) time-dependent simulation of nano-imprint lithography of polymer melt, where the polymer is treated as a structured liquid, has been presented. Considering the flow physics of the polymer as a structured liquid, we have followed the line initiated by de Gennes, using a Molecular Stress Function model of the Doi and Edwa...
