Dispersion and Absorption of Longitudinal Electro-Kinetic Waves in Magnetized Ion-Implanted Semiconductor Plasmas

The instability of longitudinal electro-kinetic wave that is propagating across the magnetic field B0 in ion-implanted group-IV semiconductor sample consisting of non-drifting electrons, holes, and negatively charged colloids is investigated. Using hydrodynamic approach, a compact dispersion relation D(ω, k) is derived for the same. The propagation and amplification characteristics of the wave ...

Acousto - Optic Isolator ( Aoi )

Random depth access full-field heterodyne low-coherence interferometry utilizing acousto-optic modulation and a complementary metaloxide semiconductor camera.

With analog scanning, time-domain low-coherence interferometry lacks precise depth information, and optical carrier generation demands a linear scanning speed. Full-field heterodyne low-coherence interferometry that uses a logarithmic complementary metal-oxide semiconductor camera, acousto-optic modulation, and digital depth stepping is reported, with which random regions of interest, lateral a...

Acousto-optic effects of surface acoustic waves in semiconductor quantum well structures

We report on recent experiments investigating the modification of the interband optical response of a piezoelectric semiconductor quantum well structure under the influence of intense short period surface acoustic waves. Experimentally, we study the photoluminescence (PL) of an undoped strained InGaAs/GaAs quantum well on which surface acoustic waves are propagated in the GHz regime. We observe...

Nonlinear effects in acousto-optic imaging.

Acousto-optic (AO) imaging is a promising technique that is able to reveal optical properties in the millimeter range inside scattering media by tagging the photon paths with an ultrasonic beam. To increase both the contrast and the resolution of the AO images, we have explored the possibility of using the nonlinear response of the speckle modulation. Variation of the second-harmonic signal as ...
