Surface plasmon enhanced InGaN light emitter [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
We report a dramatic increase in the photoluminescence (PL) emitted from InGaN/GaN quantum wells (QW), obtained by covering these sample surface with thin metallic films. Remarkable enhancements of PL peak intensities were obtained from In_(0.3)Ga_(0.7)N

Influence of an Argon/Silane Atmosphere on the Temperature of a Thermal Plasma

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
The influence of a silane‐doped argon atmosphere on the chemical composition and temperature of a thermal nontransferring argon plasma is investigated using optical emission spectroscopy. As a result of the high amount of free electrons resulting from the stepwise ionization and dissociation of the silane molecule, even a silane addition of 0.01 vol ...

Unidirectional and diffractionless surface plasmon-polaritons on three-dimensional nonreciprocal plasmonic platforms [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Light-matter interactions in conventional nanophotonic structures typically lack directionality. Furthermore, surface waves supported by conventional material substrates do not usually have a preferential direction of propagation, and their wavefront ...

Impact of Pre‐Oxidation Treatments on a Recycled MgO/Steel‐Composite as Carbon Free Anode in Aluminum‐Electrolysis Environments

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Cermets (60 vol.% AISI 316L stainless steel, 40 vol.% recycled MgO), intended for use in aluminum electrolysis, were pre‐oxidized in three furnaces with different heating technologies and subjected to a cryolite corrosion test. The different atmospheres influenced the formation of oxide layers, which in turn affected corrosion resistance and ...

First array of enriched Zn$^{82}$Se bolometers to search for double beta decay [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The R&D activity performed during the last years proved the potential of ZnSe scintillating bolometers to the search for neutrino-less double beta decay, motivating the realization of the first large-mass experiment based on this technology: CUPID-0. The

Biodegradable and Recyclable Luminescent Mixed‐Matrix‐Membranes, Hydrogels, and Cryogels based on Nanoscale Metal‐Organic Frameworks and Biopolymers

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The study presents biodegradable and recyclable mixed‐matrix membranes (MMMs), hydrogels, and cryogels using luminescent nanoscale metal‐organic frameworks (nMOFs) and biopolymers. These bio‐nMOF‐MMMs combine europium‐based nMOFs as probes for the status of the materials with the biopolymers agar and gelatine and present alternatives to conventional ...

Highly entangled photons from hybrid piezoelectric-semiconductor quantum dot devices

open access: yes, 2014
Entanglement resources are key ingredients of future quantum technologies. If they could be efficiently integrated into a semiconductor platform a new generation of devices could be envisioned, whose quantum-mechanical functionalities are controlled via ...

An integrated source of spectrally filtered correlated photons for large scale quantum photonic systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
We demonstrate the generation of quantum-correlated photon-pairs combined with the spectral filtering of the pump field by more than 95dB using Bragg reflectors and electrically tunable ring resonators.
