چکیده

Spontaneous emission from quantum-well excitons in a thin, high-refractive-index dielectric layer embedded in a low-refractive-index bulk dielectric is studied as a function of the layer thickness and refractive-index ratio. Total spontaneous emission rates for a thin layer decrease linearly with the index ratio for dipoles in the plane of the layer and as the fifth power of the index ratio for dipoles with orientations perpendicular to the layer. These results are of interest in the design of optical microstructures that control the exciton emission dynamics of semiconductor quantum wells.

Enhancement in the excitonic spontaneous emission rates for Si nanocrystal multi-layers covered with thin films of Au, Ag, and Al.

The enhancement in the spontaneous emission rate (SER) for Ag, Au, and Al films on multilayer Si nanocrystals (SiNCs) was probed with time-resolved cathodoluminescence (CL). The SiNCs were grown on Si(100) using plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition. Electron-hole pairs were generated in the metal-covered SiNCs by injecting a pulsed high-energy electron beam through the thin metal films, wh...

Operation of GaN : Er Thin Film Electroluminescent Display Devices

Thin-film electroluminescence has been obtained from GaN:Er deposited directly on amorphous dielectric layers. Electroluminescent device (ELD) structures consisting of a dielectric/GaN/dielectric were formed on p-Si substrates. In contrast to previous GaN:Er ELDs which used epitaxial growth conditions on crystalline substrates and were operated under DC bias, these ELDs were operated under AC b...

بررسی ثابت دی الکتریک لایه نازک SiO2با استفاده از آزمون بیضی سنجی

In this paper, we studied the optical behavior of SiO2 thin films prepared via sol-gel route using spin coating deposition from tetraethylorthosilicate (TEOS) as precursor. Thin films were annealed at different temperatures (400-600oC). Absorption edge and band gap of thin layers were measured using UV-Vis spectrophotometery. Optical refractive index and dielectric constant were measured by ell...

Control capability of electrolytic concentration on refractive index and dielectric constant of porous Silicon layers

Porous Silicon (PS) samples have been prepared by electrochemical anodization of p-type silicon wafer by varying HF concentrations in the electrolytic solution. The structural, surface morphological, optical and surface composition analysis of the prepared samples were done by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Photoluminescence (PL) and Fourier transform infr...

Optical properties of spin-coated Er-doped Ga1As39S60 Chalcogenide thin films

Spin-coating of Chalcogenide glasses is a cost-effective and flexible method to produce thin films applicable in photonics. In this paper Er was doped into Ga1As39S60 glass by melt quenching technique and solutions for spin coating were prepared from glass powders dissolved in Propylamine and Ethylendiamine. Substrates used were microscopic slides (refractive index of about 1.51). Applied layer...
