All-fiber Yb-doped laser mode-locked by nanotubes
(IEEE, 2013)Single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) and graphene have emerged as promising saturable absorbers (SAs), due to their broad operation bandwidth and fast recovery times [1-3]. However, Yb-doped fiber lasers mode-locked using ... -
Anomalous spectral characteristics of ultrathin sub-nm colloidal CdSe nanoplatelets
(Optical Society of America, 2017)We demonstrate high quantum yield broad photoluminescence emission of ultrathin sub-nanometer CdSe nanoplatelets (two-monolayer). They also exhibit polarization-characterized lateral size dependent anomalous heavy hole and ... -
Carrier-induced refractive index change in InN
(Wiley, 2008)Rapid development of InN technology demands comprehensive assessment of the electronic and optoelectronic potential of this material. In this theoretical work the effect of free electrons on the optical properties of the ... -
Cubic-phase zirconia nano-island growth using atomic layer deposition and application in low-power charge-trapping nonvolatile-memory devices
(Institute of Physics Publishing Ltd., 2017)The manipulation of matter at the nanoscale enables the generation of properties in a material that would otherwise be challenging or impossible to realize in the bulk state. Here, we demonstrate growth of zirconia ... -
Density functional theory investigation of substituent effects on building blocks of conducting polymers
(Elsevier, 1999)Substituted heterocyclic dimers were calculated employing density functional theory (DFT) and analyzed with the natural bond orbits method (NBO). Substitution in 3- and 4-positions leads to parallel shifting of HOMO and ... -
Direct numerical solution of the Lippmann-Schwinger equation in coordinate space without partial-wave decomposition
(American Physical Society, 2016)Direct numerical solution of the coordinate-space integral-equation version of the two-particle Lippmann-Schwinger (LS) equation is considered without invoking the traditional partial-wave decomposition. The singular kernel ... -
Effect of cross-sectional geometry on the RPA plasmons of quantum wires
(Pergamon Press, 1994)The effect of cross-sectional geometry on both the intrasubband plasmon and intersubband plasmon of a quantum wire is investigated within a two-subband RPA scheme. Exact analytical electronic wavefunctions for circular, ... -
The effect of growth conditions on the optical and structural properties of InGaN/GaN MQW LED structures grown by MOCVD
(Gazi University Eti Mahallesi, 2014)Five period InGaN/GaN MQW LED wafers were grown by low pressure MOCVD on an AlN buffer layer, which was deposited on a c-plane (0001)-faced sapphire substrate. The effect of growth conditions, such as the well growth time, ... -
Effective mass enhancement in two-dimensional electron systems: The role of interaction and disorder effects
(Elsevier, 2004)Recent experiments on two-dimensional (2D) electron systems have found a sharp increase in the effective mass of electrons with decreasing electron density. In an effort to understand this behavior we employ the many-body ... -
Electrically-reconfigurable integrated photonic switches
(IEEE, 2004)We report remotely electrically reconfigurable photonic switches that intimately integrate waveguide electroabsorption modulators with surface-normal photodiodes, avoiding conventional electronics. These switches exhibit ... -
Electronic structure of conducting organic polymers: insights from time-dependent density functional theory
(John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2014)Conducting organic polymers (COPs) became an active field of research after it was discovered how thin films rather than insoluble infusible powders can be produced. The combination of the properties of plastics with those ... -
Energy relaxation of electrons in InGaN quantum wells
(Springer New York LLC, 2015-04)In this study, electron energy relaxation mechanisms in HEMT structures with different InxGa1−xN-channel quantum well (QW) widths are investigated. Theoretical value of the inelastic scattering rates is carried out at ... -
Energy-transfer rate in a double-quantum-well system due to Coulomb coupling
(Elsevier, 2002)We study the energy-transfer rate for electrons in a double-quantum-well structure, where the layers are coupled through screened Coulomb interactions. The energy-transfer rate between the layers (similar to the Coulomb ... -
