A simple analytical theory of high-voltage overvolting p+-i-n+-structures picosecond switching into conducting state by pulsed lighting has been developed. Relationship between parameters of structure, light pulse, external circuit and the…
Numerical simulation of switching process of high-voltage silicon photodiodes, phototransistors and photothyristors those triggered-on homogeneously over the area by picosecond laser pulses, has been performed for the first time. The…
Many experimental setups, such as for the calibration of photosensors, require light sources with sub-nanosecond timing precision. We present the design and evaluation of a brightness controlled, picosecond light pulser based on an…
We investigate theoretically the transport properties of a mesoscopic system driven by a sequence of rectangular pulses applied at the contact to the input (left) lead. The characteristics of the current which would be measured in the…
We examine numerically the time-dependent properties of nonlinear bistable multilayer structures for constant wave illumination. We find that our system exhibits both steady-state and self-pulsing solutions. In the steady state regime, we…
Energy efficiency of optoelectronic switches based on high-voltage silicon photodiodes, phototransistors or photothyristors and triggered-on by picosecond laser pulses has been studied for the first time. For given values of resistive load,…
We study correlated switchings of superconducting nanobridge probed with train of current pulses. For pulses with low repetition rate each pulse transits the superconducting bridge to normal state with probability $P$ independent of the…
Many chalcogenide glasses undergo a breakdown in electronic resistance above a critical field strength. Known as threshold switching, this mechanism enables field-induced crystallization in emerging phase-change memory. Purely electronic as…
Lightwave pulse shaping in the picosecond regime has remained unaddressed because it resides beyond the limits of state-of-the-art techniques, either due to its inherently narrow spectral content or fundamental speed limitations in…
Self-heating effects of picosecond optoelectronic switches based on vertical high-voltage structures with p-n-junctions (VPSS) operating in a high-frequency mode were theoretically studied for the first time. It is shown that strong…
The processing of energy by transfer and redistribution plays a key role in the evolution of dynamical systems. At the ultrasmall and ultrafast scale of nanosystems, quantum coherence could in principle also play a role and has been…
We present measurements obtained on a bulk cylinder of lead with a SQUID picovoltmeter. A distinctive hysteretic step structure is observed. It is washed out on increasing the current and reinforced in higher field. Classical models for the…
Pulse activated transitions from the metastable to the running state and viceversa have been observed in a stacked double tunnel Nb-based Josephson system. Experimental results are compared with numerical simulations based on the…
Optical bistability of exciton polaritons in semiconductor microcavities is a promising platform for digital optical devices. Steady states of coherently driven polaritons can be toggled in tens of picoseconds by a short external pulse of…
Engineering quantum phases using light is a novel route to designing functional materials, where light-induced superconductivity is a successful example. Although this phenomenon has been realized experimentally, especially for the…
Basing on 2D computer simulation of physical processes in high-voltage reversibly-switched dynistors (RSD) important peculiarities of their submicrosecond pulse performance mechanisms have been studied. It is characteristic that on early…
We describe an electro-optical switch based on a commercial electro-optic modulator (modified for high-speed operation) and a 340V pulser having a rise time of 2.2ns (at 250V). It can produce arbitrary pulse patterns with an average…
We apply a first-principles computational approach to study a light-sensitive molecular switch. The molecule that comprises the switch can convert between a trans and a cis configuration upon photo-excitation. We find that the conductance…
Phase changing materials (PCM) are widely used for optical data recording, sensing, all-optical switching, and optical limiting. Our focus here is on the case when the change in the transmission characteristics of the optical material is…
