Nonlinear Photogeneration of Carriers in an Indium Antimonide Etalon

چکیده
The photo-Hall technique has been used to investigate the properties of the InSb optical absorption band-edge. An accurate theoretical explanation of the linear absorption results is given, together with new data on the nonlinear aspects of the band-tail. A value of 1.1 x 10-18 for a has been calculated by monitoring the carrier generation during bistability.

Scattering efficiency and near field enhancement of active semiconductor plasmonic antennas at terahertz frequencies.
Terahertz plasmonic resonances in semiconductor (indium antimonide, InSb) dimer antennas are investigated theoretically. The antennas are formed by two rods separated by a small gap. We demonstrate that, with an appropriate choice of the shape and dimension of the semiconductor antennas, it is possible to obtain large electromagnetic field enhancement inside the gap. Unlike metallic antennas, t...
متن کاملFast spin-orbit qubit in an indium antimonide nanowire.
Because of the strong spin-orbit interaction in indium antimonide, orbital motion and spin are no longer separated. This enables fast manipulation of qubit states by means of microwave electric fields. We report Rabi oscillation frequencies exceeding 100 MHz for spin-orbit qubits in InSb nanowires. Individual qubits can be selectively addressed due to intrinsic differences in their g factors. B...
متن کاملTime-resolved x-ray scattering from laser-molten indium antimonide.
We demonstrate a concept to study transient liquids with picosecond time-resolved x-ray scattering in a high-repetition-rate configuration. Femtosecond laser excitation of crystalline indium antimonide (InSb) induces ultrafast melting, which leads to a loss of the long-range order. The remaining local correlations of the liquid result in broad x-ray diffraction rings, which are measured as a fu...

The exponential rise in the density of silicon CMOS transistors has now reached a limit and threatening to end the microelectronics revolution. To tackle this difficulty, group III–V compound semiconductors due to their outstanding electron transport properties and high mobility are very actively being researched as channel materials for future highly scaled CMOS devices. In this paper, we have...
