Differential cross sections of the gamma + d -> d + pi^0 reaction were measured at photon beam energies between 0.5 and 2.0 GeV over a wide angular range in CM system. The experiment was performed in Hall B at Jefferson Lab using the CLAS…
Silicon nitride has emerged as a promising photonic platform for integrated single-photon sources, yet the microscopic origin of the recently observed bright quantum emissions remains unclear. Using hybrid density functional theory, we show…
In this paper, we theoretically and experimentally demonstrated photothermally-induced nonlinearities of both forward and backward scattering intensities from quasi-perfect absorbing silicon-based metasurface. The metasurface is efficiently…
We demonstrate by time-resolved resonance fluorescence measurements on a single self-assembled quantum dot an internal photo-effect that emits electrons from the dot by an intra-band excitation. We find a linear dependence of the optically…
Control of components in integrated photonic circuits is crucial in achieving programmable devices. Operation bandwidth of a plasmonic device cannot be generally tuned once it is manufactured, especially in the visible regime. Here, we…
Stimulated emission of sensitized Erbium atoms is reported in silicon-rich silicon nitride waveguides. Visible pump and infrared probe measurements are carried out in waveguides fabricated from erbium-doped silicon rich silicon nitride. A…
The tip of a scanning tunnelling microscope can inject hot electrons into a surface with atomic precision. Their subsequent dynamics and eventual decay can result in atomic manipulation of an adsorbed molecule, or in light emission from the…
Background: Edge-on-irradiated silicon detectors are currently being investigated for use in photon-counting CT applications. The low atomic number of silicon leads to a significant number of incident photons being Compton scattered in the…
Two preceding parts of a paper (cond-mat/0508457, cond-mat/0508460) considered the heuristic values of recent experiments pointing to the nearly universal occurrence of photovoltages across solid surfaces under short-circuit conditions.…
The design of efficient graphene-silicon (GSi) Schottky junction photodetectors requires detailed understanding of the spatial origin of the photoresponse. Scanning-photocurrent-microscopy (SPM) studies have been carried out in the visible…
