Segmented Power Generator Modules of Bi2Te3 and ErAs:InGaAlAs Embedded with ErAs Nanoparticles

We report the fabrication and characterization of segmented element power generator modules of 254 thermoelectric elements. The element is 1 mm × 1 mm in area, which consists of 300 μm thickness Bi2Te3 and 50 μm thickness ErAs:(InGaAs)1-x(InAlAs)x, so that each segment can work at different temperature ranges. Erbium arsenide metallic nanoparticles are incorporated to create scattering centers ...

POWER PERFORMANCE OF PNP InAlAs/InGaAs HBTs

Recently, small-signal microwave performance has been reported for PNP InAlAs/InGaAs HBTs [1, 2]. While power performance of PNP AlGaAs/GaAs HBTs has been demonstrated [3], nothing has been reported on power performance of PNP HBTs in the InP material system. In this work, InAlAs/InGaAs PNP HBTs were fabricated and subsequently characterized under large signal conditions at X-band to determine ...

InGaAs/InAlAs Single Photon Avalanche Diode at 1550 nm

Single photon detectors sensitive to near-infrared (NIR) wavelength light are used in an increasing number of applications, such as quantum key distribution, laser detection and ranging, and integrated circuit analysis. There are many types of NIR single photon detectors, e.g. photomultiplier tube, superconducting single photon detector and single photon avalanche diode (SPAD). However, the SPA...
