in this article, zno and zno:mn nanoparticles prepared by reverse micelle method. the various crystalline properties of these nanoparticles such as size, d-spacing, strain, stress, dislocation density and texture coefficient have been calculated with the help of xrd spectrum. the xrd results indicated that the synthesized zno and zno:mn nanoparticles have a pure wurtzite (hexagonal phase) struc...

in this paper, we proposed a novel structure for designing all optical filter based on photonic crystal structure. in designing the proposed filter, we simply employed a point defect localized between input and output waveguides as wavelength selecting part of the filter. the initial form of this filter is capable of selecting optical waves at =1560 nm, the transmission efficiency of the filte...

In this study we investigate the effect of atoms such as B, N, Ge and Sn on the optical and the electrical properties of capped (5, 0) zigzag carbon nanotube, using DFT calculation method. These elements were attached to the one end of the carbon nanotube. We considered four different structure designs as possible candidates for a p-n junction device. The electrical properties of these structur...

Waveguides with low confinement loss, low chromatic dispersion, and low nonlinear effects are used in optical communication systems. Optical fibers can also be employed in such systems. Besides optical fibers, photonic crystal fibers are also highly suitable transmission media for optical communication systems. In this paper, we introduce two new designs of index-guiding photonic crystal fiber ...

In this paper, photodetection properties of a Graphene-based device at the third telecommunication window have been reported.
