Electromagnetic field confined and tailored with a few air holes in a photonic-crystal fiber
Conventional and scanning near-field optical microscopy techniques are cross referenced to femtosecond nonlinear-optical measurements and finite-element numerical simulations to visualize and analyze a strong ...

Evaluation of a highly nonlinear microstructured optical fiber by near-field scanning optical microscopy and simulations: nonlinear coefficient and coupling losses
We report on the evaluation of a microstructured optical fiber (MOF) designed for non-linear signal processing applications, i.e., with a very small guided mode (waist ∼1 μm). Calculations predict an intrinsic...

Improved reproducibility of AiGalnAs laser threshold by InP substrate deoxidation under phosphorous flux
When AIGalnAs laser structures are grown by molecular beam epitaxy on InP, the substrate deoxidation procedure is found to influence the quality of the structure: the laser threshold current densities are foun...

Nucleation and Growth of InAs Islands on GaAs: An Optical Study
The observation, as early as 19851–3, of intense photoluminescence (PL) from small InAs clusters in GaAs grown by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) has opened an outstanding route toward the production of device compa...

Elastic Misfit Strain Relaxation in Highly Strained InAs Dots on GaAs as Studied by Tem, AFM and VFF Atomistic Calculations
The deposition of InAs on GaAs results, above a 1.75 monolayer coverage, in the formation of dots on a residual 2D wetting layer. Atomic force microscopy (AFM) measurements show that these dots are in the quan...

Two-Photon Photoemission in Semiconductors
Two-quantum photoemission is a process in which twice the photon energy is transferred to the emitted photoelectron. In two-photon photoemission, this transfer is obtained by successive photoexcitations. The t...

Build-up and Characterization of “Artificial” Surfaces for III—V Compound Semiconductors
With molecular-beam epitaxy, we can now build on a given material monolayer-thin over layers, which give to its surface structural and electronic properties different from its natural ones. The performances an...

Surface Processes in Semiconductors Under Pulsed Laser Excitation
Intense pulsed laser excitation of a semiconductor above its band gap induces many surface-related effects, most of them highly non-linear, such as reconstruction, photolysis, migration, defect annealing, part...
