Nonvolatile polarization control of a bistable VCSEL

An Electronic Nonvolatile Memory Device Based On Electrostatic Deflection of a Bistable Mechanical Beam

The speed of memory structures is considerably slower than that of logic thus permitting a variety of approaches to achieving and using bistability. We used the bistability of a doubly clamped beam to attain two states that can potentially be used in the implementation of a nonvolatile memory [1]. The device is designed such that a bistable beam acts as the gate of an air gap transistor. In the...

Optimal homeostasis necessitates bistable control.

Bistability is a fundamental phenomenon in nature. In biology, a number of fine properties of bistability have been identified. However, these properties are only consequences of bistability at the physiological level, which do not explain why it had to emerge during evolution. Using optimal homeostasis as the first principle, I find that bistability emerges as an indispensable control mechanis...

A New VCSEL Book

Six books written in English with an exclusive focus on VCSELs have been published during the years 1995–2003 [1–6]. Enormous progress of VCSEL performance and applications has been achieved since then. In 2012 Springer-Verlag will thus publish a new VCSEL book [7] which will be a multi-author volume containing 18 chapters and about 550 pages. Figure 1 shows its tentative cover. Some of the cha...

control of the optical properties of nanoparticles by laser fields

در این پایان نامه، درهمتنیدگی بین یک سیستم نقطه کوانتومی دوگانه(مولکول نقطه کوانتومی) و میدان مورد مطالعه قرار گرفته است. از آنتروپی ون نیومن به عنوان ابزاری برای بررسی درهمتنیدگی بین اتم و میدان استفاده شده و تاثیر پارامترهای مختلف، نظیر تونل زنی(که توسط تغییر ولتاژ ایجاد می شود)، شدت میدان و نسبت دو گسیل خودبخودی بر رفتار درجه درهمتنیدگی سیستم بررسی شده اشت.با تغییر هر یک از این پارامترها، در...
