ABSTRACT: We investigated a selective assembly method of fabricating single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) on a silicon-dioxide (SiO2) surface by using only a photolithographic process; then, we fabricated 8 x 8 field-emission transistor (FET) arrays for sensor applications. Photoresist (PR) patterns were made on a SiO2-grown Si substrate by using the photolithographic process. This PR-patterned substrate was dipped into a SWCNT solution dispersed in dichlorobenzene (DCB). The PR patterns were removed by using acetone. As a result, selectively-assembled SWCNT channels in 8 x 8 FET arrays could be fabricated between source and drain electrodes without complicated chemical steps using octadecyltrichlorosilane (OTS). Finally, we successfully fabricated 8 x 8 SWCNT-based multi-channel FET arrays by using our novel self-assembly method.

ABSTRACT: We describe studies of implantation-enhanced quantum-well intermixing in a lattice-matched InGaAs/InGaAsP multiple quantum well p-i-n heterostructure. Samples were implanted with a dose of 5×1014 P+ ions /cm2 at high energy of 1 MeV. The band gap for the samples was determined from photoluminescence at room temperature. The maximum blue-shift of the band gap was 107 nm after the RTA process at 675 °C for 9 minutes. However, it was improved to 140 nm after two-step anneals. (© 2007 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.

ABSTRACT: We fabricated photonic crystal structure on GaAs substrate using nanoporous alumina mask. Uniform arrays of nano-sized pores produced in anodic alumina were transferred into GaAs substrate by inductively coupled plasma reactive ion etching (ICP-RIE). The photonic crystal structure, the nanohole array with uniform diameter of 60 nm and interpore distance of 105 nm, was formed on GaAs substrate as replica of the alumina mask. Its photoluminescence (PL) showed enhanced intensity compared with that from GaAs substrate without its structure. The ICP-RIE technique using nanoporous alumina mask can be used as a prospective method in the fabrication of nano-devices for nanotechnology.

ABSTRACT: By using the gain nonlinearity characteristics of semiconductor optical amplifier, an all-optical binary half adder at 10 Gbps is demonstrated. The half adder operates in a single mechanism, which is cross gain modulation. The half adder utilizes two logic functions of SUM and CARRY, which can be demonstrated by using XOR and AND gates, respectively. The extinction ratios of both XOR and AND gates are about 6.1 dB. By achieving this experiment, we also explored the possibilities for the enhanced complex logic operation and higher chances for multiple logic integration.

The output peak wavelength is 1570 nm at a bias current of 1.22 Ith and there is no input signal. The vertically injected depleted optical thyristor shows very good isolation between input and output signals.

achieved by simultaneously injecting signal A and signal \overline{B}

ABSTRACT: The novel design of an all-optical XOR gate by using cross-gain modulation of semiconductor optical amplifiers has been suggested and demonstrated successfully at 10 Gb/s. Boolean AB~ and A~B of the two input signals A and B have been obtained and combined to achieve the all-optical XOR gate. No additional input beam such as a clock signal or continuous wave light is used in this new design, which is required in other all-optical XOR gates.

ABSTRACT: We have demonstrated for the first time an all-optical flip-flop based on optical bistability of an integrated SOA/DFB-SOA by applying an input signal with the period of 25.2 ns. An all-optical flip-flop based on optical bistability is expected to process the signal at an ultra-high speed in a light-wave communication. All-optical flip-flop has various applications such as all optical memory, demultiplexing, packet-header buffering, and retiming. Moreover, an integrated SOA/DFBSOA can perform all-optical logic operation and wavelength conversion by cross gain modulation.

ABSTRACT: To improve the characteristics of optical devices that used be WDM
system optimally, we investigated two types of structures that consisted
to be a non-uniform thickness quantum well. A possibility of the flat
gain in the broad band is presented by optimizing the variation of wells
thickness. This structure has different gain characteristics for
different sequence of the well from p or n side. Thus, gain
characteristics for two types of the structures were calculated to
achieve broad range gain flatness for the non-uniform quantum well
structure, the spontaneous emission also showed broadband
characteristics. They have 3 dB bandwidths of spontaneous emission that
are 57 nm, 50 nm respectively. And 3 dB bandwidths of structures are 1.4
times, 1.3 times wider than conventional structure

ABSTRACT: All-optical logic AND at 20 Gbit/s was demonstrated using an all-optical SOA-based Mach-Zehnder interferometric wavelength converter, by injecting a pulse data stream into probe signal input instead of continuous wave. It is expected that the AOWC can be utilized for full functionality of Boolean logic due to the nonlinear optical properties
