Gate-defined quantum dots in gallium arsenide (GaAs) have been used extensively for pioneering spin qubit devices due to the relative simplicity of fabrication and favourable electronic properties such as a single conduction band valley, a…
We present a set of experimental results identifying various effects that govern the carrier dynamics of self-catalyzed GaAs/AlGaAs core-shell nanowires (NWs) grown by molecular beam epitaxy i.e. surface recombination velocity, surface…
There is a lack of highly efficient light emitting devices (LEDs) operating in the green spectral regime. The devices based on (In,Al)GaN show extremely high efficiencies in violet and blue colors but fall short for longer emission…
We have computed the electronic and hole spectra of a 3D superlattice consisting of layers of GaAs rods of finite height arranged in a hexagonal lattice and embedded in an AlGaAs matrix, alternating with spacer layers of homogeneous AlAs.…
Flat-optics platforms offer new opportunities for the generation of entangled photons by relaxing traditional phase-matching constraints, enabling the use of a broader range of nonlinear materials. Among these, gallium arsenide and aluminum…
A film-coupled metamaterial structure is numerically investigated for enhancing the light absorption in an ultrathin photovoltaic layer of crystalline gallium arsenide (GaAs). The top subwavelength concave grating and the bottom metallic…

We have fabricated AlGaAs/GaAs heterostructure devices in which the conduction channel can be populated with either electrons or holes simply by changing the polarity of a gate bias. The heterostructures are entirely undoped, and carriers…
Numerical simulation of a solar cell can provide various information that can be useful to maximize its power conversion efficiency (PCE). In that respect we carried out a set of numerical simulation using AFORS-HET simulation program.…
The quest for extremely high mobilities of 2d electron gases in MBE-grown heterostructures is hampered by the available purity of the starting materials, particularly of the gallium. Here we compare the role of different Ga lots having…
Reducing the formation of cracks during growth of GaInP/GaInAs/Ge 3-junction solar cells on Ge|Si virtual substrates has been attempted by thinning the structure, namely the Ge bottom cell and the GaInAs middle cell. The theoretical…
Semiconductor core$-$shell nanowires based on the GaAs substrate are building blocks of many photonic, photovoltaic and electronic devices, thanks to the associated direct band-gap and the highly tunable optoelectronic properties. The…

The complex band structure, large spin-orbit induced band splitting, and heavy effective mass of two-dimensional (2D) hole systems hosted in GaAs quantum wells render them rich platforms to study many-body physics and ballistic transport…
This work studies the spontaneous self-assembly of Ge QDs on AlAs, GaAs, and AlGaAs by high temperature in-situ annealing in molecular beam epitaxy (MBE). The morphology of Ge dots formed on AlAs are observed by atom probe tomography, which…
The microscale integration of mid- and longwave-infrared photonics could enable the development of fieldable, robust chemical sensors, as well as highly efficient infrared frequency converters. However, such technology would be defined by…
Selective solar absorbers (SSAs) with high performance are the key to concentrated solar power systems. Optical metamaterials are emerging as a promising strategy to enhance selective photon absorption, however, the high-temperature…
The quantum well solar cell (QWSC) has been proposed as a flexible means to ensuring current matching for tandem cells. This paper explores the further advantage afforded by the indication that QWSCs operate in the radiative limit because…
A key component for the realization of silicon-photonics are integrated lasers operating in the important communications band near 1.55 ${\mu}$m. One approach is through the use of GaSb-based alloys which may be grown directly on silicon.…
