Two-Color Single-Photon Emission from In As Quantum Dots: Toward Logic Information Management Using Quantum Light
2014
In this work, we propose the use of the Hanbury-Brown and Twiss interferometric technique and a switchable two-color excitation method for evaluating the exciton and noncorrelated electron-hole dynamics associated with single photon emission from indium arsenide (InAs) self-assembled quantum dots (QDs). Using a microstate master equation model we demonstrate that our single QDs are described by nonlinear exciton dynamics. The simultaneous detection of two-color, single photon emission from InAs QDs using these nonlinear dynamics was used to design a NOT AND logic transference function. This computational functionality combines the advantages of working with light/photons input/output device…
Photovoltaic module characteristics from CIGS solar cell modelling
2013
We describe our approach to the task of modelling, both at single cell structure and complete module levels, during the solar cell technology development process. This can give very helpful indications, in terms of global photovoltaic module characteristics, for the assessment of intermediate research results and planning of further experiments. We make reference specifically to the fabrication of thin film CIGS solar cells by means of single-step electrodeposition, a technique which appears fairly easy and low-cost but, at the same time, can lead to quite different structural and electrical properties.
Transport properties of silicon doped n-indium selenide
1992
Hall effect and resistivity measurements in silicon doped indium selenide (InSe), from 7K to 500K, are reported. Results are interpreted through a model, previously proposed for tin doped InSe, that takes into account the contribution of both three- and two-dimensional electrons to charge transport along the layers in InSe.
Collinear two-photon excitation of indium rydberg states in a fast atomic beam
1986
The 29p-Rydberg state of neutral indium was produced by double resonant two-photon excitation in a fast atomic beam and detected via field ionization in a longitudinal electric field.
On the anomalous Stark effect in a thin disc-shaped quantum dot
2010
The effect of a lateral external electric field F on an exciton ground state in an InAs disc-shaped quantum dot has been studied using a variational method within the effective mass approximation. We consider that the radial dimension of the disc is very large compared to its height. This situation leads to separating the excitonic Hamiltonian into two independent parts: the lateral confinement which corresponds to a two-dimensional harmonic oscillator and an infinite square well in the growth direction. Our calculations show that the complete description of the lateral Stark shift requires both the linear and quadratic terms in F which explains that the exciton possess nonzero lateral dipo…
Forbidden nonuniqueβdecays and effective values of weak coupling constants
2016
Forbidden nonunique $\ensuremath{\beta}$ decays feature shape functions that are complicated combinations of different nuclear matrix elements and phase-space factors. Furthermore, they depend in a very nontrivial way on the values of the weak coupling constants, ${g}_{\mathrm{V}}$ for the vector part and ${g}_{\mathrm{A}}$ for the axial-vector part. In this work we include also the usually omitted second-order terms in the shape functions to see their effect on the computed decay half-lives and electron spectra ($\ensuremath{\beta}$ spectra). As examples we study the fourth-forbidden nonunique ground-state-to-ground-state ${\ensuremath{\beta}}^{\ensuremath{-}}$ decay branches of $^{113}\ma…
Selective laser ionization of N≥82 indium isotopes: The new r-process nuclide 135In
2002
Production yields and beta-decay half-lives of very neutron-rich indium isotopes were determined at CERN/ISOLDE using isobaric selectivity of a resonance-ionization laser ion-source. Beta-delayed neutron multiscaling measurements have yielded improved half-lives for 206(6)~ms $^{132}$In, 165(3)~ms $^{133}$In and 141(5)~ms $^{134}$In. With 92(10)~ms $^{135}$In, a new r-process nuclide has been identified which acts as an important `waiting-point' in the In isotopic chain for neutron densities in the range n$_n \simeq 10^{24}$--10$^{26}$ n/cm$^3$, where the r-matter flow has already passed the ${\rm A} \simeq 130$ abundance-peak region.
High-spin studies of the neutron deficient nuclei 103In, 105In, 107In, and 109In
1997
High-spin states of the isotopes In-103,In-105,In-107,In-109 have been investigated using in-beam gamma-ray spectroscopic methods. Results from three different experiments are presented. Targets of Fe-54, Cr-50, and Mo-92 were bombarded by a 270 and 261 MeV Ni-58 beam and by a 95 MeV F-19 beam, respectively. Reaction channel separation was achieved with a charged-particle detector array and in the first two experiments also with a 1 pi neutron detector system. As a result of these experiments the level schemes of In-103,In-105,In-107,In-109 were significantly extended. Excited states of these odd-A indium isotopes are discussed within the framework of the nuclear shell model and the hole-co…
Intense beams of mass-separated, neutron-deficient indium, tin, thallium and lead isotopes
1985
A discharge ion source of the FEBIAD-type that delivers intense beams of neutron-deficient isotopes of indium, tin, thallium and lead produced in heavy-ion-induced fusion reactions is described. After mass separation the isotopically pure beams with intensities of up to 3 × 107 ions/s were available for gamma and laser spectroscopy. This corresponds to an overall separation efficiency of about 30%.
Collinear laser spectroscopy on108g, 108m In using an ion source with bunched beam release
1986
The hyperfine structure and isotope shift of108gIn and108mIn have been investigated by means of collinear fast-beam laser spectroscopy in the resonance line atλ=451 nm. The indium isotopes were prepared at the GSI on-line mass separator following a fusion evaporation reaction. For the first time, a FEBIAD ion source with bunched release of indium was used. Magnetic dipole moments, electric quadrupole moments and isotope shifts were determined. The present results lead us to assign the spinI=2 to the108In (T 1/2=40 min) state. Spins and moments are discussed in the framework of thejj-coupling model.
