We report the realization of large-area, communications-wavelength electro-optic modulators made via simple solution-casting onto an arbitrary substrate. The devices employ colloidal quantum dots synthesized in, and processed from, the solution phase. Devices exhibit greater than 30% modulation depth at the 1.55 micro…

Abstract Anionic poly( p ‐phenylene‐ethynylene) (PPE) incorporated polymer hybrids were synthesized from the PPE and tetramethoxysilane together with the organic polymers such as poly(vinylpyrrolidone) via a sol–gel method. Up to 10 wt % of the anionic PPE could be dispersed homogeneously in the resulting polymer hybr…

Abstract Thin films of crosslinked polymethylhydrosiloxane (PMHS) have been grafted on silica using the sol–gel process allowing further functionalization by effective quantitative hydrosilylation of SiH groups by olefins within the network. Postfunctionalization gives the polysiloxane network with n ‐alkyl side chain…

The dielectric response of ferroelectric Sr 1- x Ca x TiO 3 (SCT) under photoexcitation has been investigated. We observed photoinduced Debye dispersion, which is similar to that observed in nominally pure SrTiO 3 . The temperature dependence of photoinduced Debye dispersion in SCT indicates that the origin of photoin…

We report a strategy to achieve a material showing equal intensity double plasmon resonance (EIDPR) based on sandwich geometry. We studied the interaction between localized plasmon resonances associated with different metal clusters (Au/Ag) on Teflon AF (TAF) in sandwich geometry. Engineering the EIDPR was done by tai…

A thermal-mechanical model is presented for calculating the residual compressive strength of flammable sandwich composite materials in fire. The model can also estimate the time-to-failure of the laminate face skin to sandwich composites exposed to fire. The model involves a two-stage analysis: thermal modeling and me…

Quantum dots are of considerable interest as highly detectable labels with broad absorption, narrow spectral emission and good quantum yields. The luminescence emission has a longer decay time than that of the most common fluorophores, leading to facile rejection of much background emission (such as autofluorescence f…

This paper presents a series of processes for fabricating lead-zirconate-titanate (PZT) microstructures on a silicon substrate. An aerosol deposition method was used to deposit PZT thick film at room temperature. The low temperature deposition enabled a special lift-off process for patterning thick PZT films using a T…
