301. | Indium Makes More Durable Semiconductor Laser Inside R&D - July 6, 1994 A strong case has been made for replacing aluminum-based semiconductor lasers with a new indium-based type that researchers at Northwestern University have been working on. In fact, the durability of the new semiconductor diodes is enough better than those in present high-power lasers that we could see new applications. ... [read more] |
302. | ARPA Seeks Cheaper, Better Laser Weapons Laser Focus World - July 1, 1994 ARPA sponsored research at Northwestern University is focusing on technology for aluminum-free diodes emitting at 808 nm for use in pumping Nd:YAG lasers. This research seeks to demonstrate the use of a MOPCVD process to produce lasers diodes of InGaAsP as a replacement for diodes based on AlGaAs. ... [read more] |
303. | Quantum Force Northwestern Perspective - June 1, 1994 Students crowd into the office on the fourth floor of the Materials and Life Sciences Building. Seated at a table, Professor Manijeh Razeghi faces two renowned physicist from Poland. Three graduate students sitting beside her take notes as fast as they can. One student passes the visitors a three-dimensional drawing of something that looks like a multilayered pastry ... [read more] |
304. | High Powered Laser on a Chip Northwestern Perspective - March 1, 1994 Northwestern researchers have discovers a way to make high-powered lasers on a computer chip, which "should lead to a whole new generation of comercial high-powered lasers that will be reliable, long-lasting, and prescise," says Manijeh Razeghi, Walter P. Murphy Professor of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science. ... [read more] |
305. | Discovery viewed as breakthrough in miniature lasers The Huntsville Times - November 29, 1993 Northwestern University researchers say they have discovers a way to make high-powered lasers on a computer chip, a breakthrough that should lead to a new generation of miniature lasers. Previously, the only method for producing the lasers on a chip had involved the use of AlGaAs, But the use of aluminum content led to defects in the original construction and sudden failures in operation. ...

307. | High Powered Laser on a Chip Inside R&D - October 8, 1993 Researchers at Northwestern University have discovered a way to make high-powered aluminum free lasers on a computer chip. Test on bench versions of he new lasers show them to be more reliable and stable than the best results ever reported for the aluminum-based chips. The lasers should also be simple to produce, easy to operate, and provide a high power density. ... [read more] |
308. | New Optoelectronics Chip Built at Northwestern McCormick Dimension - September 1, 1993 Researchers at Northwestern University have succeeded in building what are believed to be the most precise and long-lasting lasers ever constructed on a silicon base. The achievement is an important step toward the marriage of electronics and photonics on a single chip. ... [read more] |
309. | Next Generation Laser Diodes: Aluminum Free Optics & Photonics News - September 1, 1993 If research at Northwestern University is successful, aluminum-free laser diodes may be on the shelves in the next several years.
