We have demonstrated the 1.5 μm electroluminescence from implanted Er ions inside the SiO2 insulator of a silicon metal-oxide-semiconductor structure under forward bias. The Er ions are excited by the direct impact from electrons tunneling through the oxide at electric fields larger than 6 MV/cm. Under these condition…

A thin Er2O3 layer grown on a Si surface by vapor doping of Er exhibits intense photoluminescence in the green and red regions excited by laser beams in the 800 nm and 450–490 nm ranges. These intense light emissions take place via resonant two or one step photoexcitations of the 4f levels in Er3+ ions. Our sample fab…

An algorithm for the design of diffractive optical phase elements (kinoforms) that give rise to fan-out (i.e., spot) patterns was developed and tested. The algorithm is based on the Helmholtz-Kirchhoff rigorous scalar diffraction integral for the evaluation of the electric field behind the kinoform. The optimization o…

CdS films were grown by chemical bath deposition. The as-grown films had the cubic CdS crystalline structure. As-grown films were thermally annealed in a controlled atmosphere. The annealing temperature was varied from 200 to . The annealing process produces a gradual structural transition from cubic for the as-grown…

We fabricated a homeotropically aligned nematic liquid crystal display with positive dielectric anisotropy, whose on and off states are controlled by in-plane field. The rubbing-free device, dark in voltage-off state, reveals bright uniformity in all directions due to the dual domainlike director configuration in the…

The mechanism for cross slip of a screw dislocation in Cu is determined by atomistic simulations that only presume the initial and final states of the process. The dissociated dislocation constricts in the primary plane and redissociates into the cross-slip plane while still partly in the primary plane. The transition…

It is demonstrated theoretically that particle irradiation may lead to a destabilization of graphitic structures with respect to low-pressure growth of diamond. This is due to the large difference in the cross sections for irradiation-induced displacements of carbon atoms in diamond and graphite. A nonequilibrium phas…

Until now, it has been observed that a collective handling of uniform spheres could only lead to a random close packing of 0.64 maximum volume fraction. In this Letter, we show that denser crystalline arrangements can be obtained when beads are poured at low flow rates into a horizontally shaken container. A parallel…

The photoluminescence (PL) and electroluminescence (EL) properties of Ge-implanted SiO2 layers thermally grown on a Si substrate were investigated and compared to those of Si-implanted SiO2 films. The PL spectra from Ge-implanted SiO2 were recorded as a function of annealing temperature. It was found that the blue-vio…

We simulate dense diblock copolymer melts using the lattice bond-fluctuation method. Letting the lengths NA and NB of the A- and B-subchains vary (with NA+NB=N) we study the dependence of the static and dynamic properties on f=NA/N. Changes in the A-B interaction parameter allow to mimic large temperature variations.…
