Intersubband relaxation dynamics in semiconductor quantum structures
We monitor the temporal evolution of the electron population in the first and second subband of an undoped GaAs/AlGaAs asymmetric double quantum well after interband optical excitation by using an interband pump/intersubband probe technique. The spacing between the two subbands is smaller than the longitudinal optical phonon energy. We extract an intersubband lifetime of T21 = 100 ps and a reco...
متن کاملLayered Nanoassembly of Three-dimensional Structures
NEMS (nanoelectromechanical systems) loom beyond the MEMS horizon as the new frontier in miniaturization. Nanorobots and other NEMS are expected to find revolutionary applications in science, engineering and everyday life. Until now, nanostructures have been built primarily in two dimensions, because of the difficulties of threedimensional (3-D) fabrication. This paper describes a promising app...
متن کاملPhotodetectors based on intersubband transitions using III-nitride superlattice structures.
We review our recent progress on the fabrication of near-infrared photodetectors based on intersubband transitions in AlN/GaN superlattice structures. Such devices were first demonstrated in 2003, and have since then seen a quite substantial development both in terms of detector responsivity and high speed operation. Nowadays, the most impressive results include characterization up to 3 GHz usi...
متن کاملIntrasubband and Intersubband Electron Relaxation in Semiconductor Quantum Wire Structures
We calculate the intersubband and intrasubband many-body inelastic Coulomb scattering rates due to electron-electron interaction in two-subband semiconductor quantum wire structures. We analyze our relaxation rates in terms of contributions from interand intrasubband charge-density excitations separately. We show that the intersubband (intrasubband) charge-density excitations are primarily resp...
متن کاملThree-Dimensional Geostatistical Analysis of Rock Fracture Roughness and Its Degradation with Shearing
Three-dimensional surface geometry of rock discontinuities and its evolution with shearing are of great importance in understanding the deformability and hydro-mechanical behavior of rock masses. In the present research, surfaces of three natural rock fractures were digitized and studied before and after the direct shear test. The variography analysis of the surfaces indicated a strong non-line...
