Hydroxyl free zinc oxide nanorods have been synthesized by a catalyst free surfactant based one-step solid state reaction process. The powder X-ray diffraction studies reveal well defined wurtzite peaks due to crystalline ZnO, while optical absorption spectra represent prominent exciton absorption and remarkable blueshift in the onset of absorption. As predicted by transmission electron microsc...

A fundamental understanding of the intrinsic optoelectronic properties of atomically thin transition-metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) is crucial for its integration into high performance semiconductor devices. Here, we investigate the transport properties of chemical vapor deposition (CVD) grown monolayer molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) under photoexcitation using correlated scanning photocurrent micro...

On-chip neural interface devices based on CMOS image sensor technology are proposed and demonstrated. The devices were designed with target applications to optogenetics in bioscience. Multifunctional CMOS image sensors equipped with an addressable on-chip electrode array were integrated with a functional interface chip that contained embedded GaInN light emitting diodes (LEDs) and electrodes to...

Recently, the technologies related to liquid crystal spatial light modulators have progressed dramatically [1]–[4]. Such modulators are classifiable as two types: transmissive and reflective. Both types are used widely for various applications, e.g. liquid crystal television panels, personal computer displays, and projector systems. In particular, the resolution of the latest liquid crystal spa...

We report the integration of two technologies: droplet microfluidics using electrowetting-on-dielectric (EWOD) and individual particle manipulation using optoelectronic tweezers (OET)-in one microfluidic device. The integrated device successfully demonstrates a sequence involving both EWOD and OET operations. We encountered various challenges during integration of the two different technologies...

Combined tunable WDM converters based on SiC multilayer photonic active filters are analyzed. The operation combines the properties of active long-pass and short-pass wavelength filter sections into a capacitive active band-pass filter. The sensor element is a multilayered heterostructure produced by PE-CVD. The configuration includes two stacked SiC p-in structures sandwiched between two trans...

We discuss the possibility of light control by means of light diffraction by space charge waves which are the periodic domain trains induced at some circumstances in GaAs Gunn effect diode. The two possible regimes of the proposed device are considered: the first one which is analogous to the Bragg diffraction in case of light-acoustic diffraction and the other one, which we call “intermediate”...

This paper describes how automated measurement capabilities of a Computer-Integrated Electronics laboratory can be adapted to establish a laboratory resource to do optoelectronic device and optical fiber link characterization measurements and SPICE modeling work to augment Optoelectronics courses. It is shown that with minimal additional investment in an Optical Spectrum Analyzer and a ThermoSt...

Since the development of the light microscope in the 16th century, optical device size and performance have been limited by diffraction. Optoelectronic devices of today are much bigger than the smallest electronic devices for this reason. Achieving control of light–material interactions for photonic device applications at the nanoscale requires structures that guide electromagnetic energy with ...
