    Enhanced optical characteristics of light emitting diodes by surface plasmon of Ag nanostructures
    (SPIE, 2011) Jang L.-W.; Ju J.-W.; Jeon J.-W.; Jeon, D.-W.; Choi J.-H.; Lee, S.-J.; Jeon, S.-R.; Baek J.-H.; Sarı, Emre; Demir, Hilmi Volkan; Yoon H.-D.; Hwang, S.-M.; Lee I.-H.
    We investigated the surface plasmon coupling behavior in InGaN/GaN multiple quantum wells at 460 nm by employing Ag nanostructures on the top of a roughened p-type GaN. After the growth of a blue light emitting diode structure, the p-GaN layer was roughened by inductive coupled plasma etching and the Ag nanostructures were formed on it. This structure showed a drastic enhancement in photoluminescence and electroluminescence intensity and the degree of enhancement was found to depend on the morphology of Ag nanostructures. From the time-resolved photoluminescence measurement a faster decay rate for the Ag-coated structure was observed. The calculated Purcell enhancement factor indicated that the improved luminescence intensity was attributed to the energy transfer from electron-hole pair recombination in the quantum well to electron vibrations of surface plasmon at the Ag-coated surface of the roughened p-GaN. © 2011 SPIE.

    On the stabilization of a cable with a tip mass
    (IEEE, 1994) Morgül, Ö.; Rao, B. P.; Conrad, F.
    In this note, we consider a vertical cable which is pinched at the upper end. A mass is attached at the lower end where a control force is also applied. We show that this hybrid system is uniformly stabilized by choosing a suitable control law for the control force depending on the velocity and angular velocity at the free end. Moreover for specific values of the feedback coefficients, we obtain the rate of decay of the energy of the system.
