11.	Disorder of a Gax In1-xAsy P1-y-InP quantum well by Zn diffusion M. Razeghi, O. Acher, and F. Launay Semicond. Sci. Technol. 2 (1 987) 793-796.-- July 30, 1987 ...[Visit Journal] Data are presented showing for the first time that Zn diffusion into a Ga,In,-,As,P,-, - InP quantum well and superlattice (of 100 A thickness) completely disorders the quantum well and superlattice layers. The photoluminescence wavelength of the quantum well and the superlattice increased after Zn diffusion, which can be attributed to the In-Ga interdiffusion at the heterointerfaces, as a result of the interchange mechanism between the interstitials and substitutional zinc atoms [reprint (PDF)]

The photodetector’s 50% cut-off wavelength was ~10 μm at 77K. The photodetector with a 6 μm-thick absorption region exhibited a peak responsivity of 4.47 A/W at 7.9 μm, corresponding to a quantum efficiency of 54% at -90 mV applied bias voltage under front-side illumination and without any anti-reflection coating. With an R×A of 119 Ω·cm² and a dark current density of 4.4×10^-4 A/cm² under -90 mV applied bias voltage at 77 K, the photodetector exhibited a specific detectivity of 2.8×10¹¹ Jones.

Teherani, Philippe Bove Ryan McClintock and Manijeh Razeghid J. Mater. Chem. C, 2017, 5, 3528-- March 20, 2017 ...[Visit Journal] At present, the simultaneous attainment of good reproducibility and high enhancement factors (EF) are key challenges in the development of surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS)substrates for improved chemical and biological sensing. SERS substrates are generally based on distributions of metallic nanoparticles/structures with different shapes and architectures which are prepared by either thermal dewetting, precipitation from colloidal suspensions1–4 or advanced (e.g. deep UV or electron beam (EBL)) lithographic techniques.5–9 Although such substrates can exhibit large Raman enhancements, the former two techniques (colloidal and thermal dewetting) give poor SERS reproducibility while deep UV and EBL are too expensive and/or complex for mass production.

UV LEDs are attractive as they are applied in many areas, such as biomedical instrumentations and dermatology, curing of industrial resins and inks, air purification, water sterilization, and many others [2, 3]. UV LEDs have been generally fabricated on AlN, GaN, Al₂O₃, or SiC substrates because of better lattice mismatching to AlGaN material systems. [reprint (PDF)]

10.	Noise performance of InGaAs/InP quantum well infrared photodetectors C. Jelen, S. Slivken, T. David, M. Razeghi and G. J. Brown IEEE Journal of Quantum Electronics 34 (7)-- July 7, 1998 Dark current noise measurements were carried out between 10 and 10(4) Hz at T = 80 K on two InGaAs-InP quantum-well infrared photodetectors (QWIP's) designed for 8-mu m infrared (IR) detection. Using the measured noise data, we have calculated the thermal generation rate, bias-dependant gain, electron trapping probability, and electron diffusion length. The calculated thermal generation rate (similar to 7 x 10(22) cm(-3) s(-1)) is similar to AlGaAs-GaAs QWIP's with similar peak wavelengths, but the gain is 50x larger, indicating improved transport and carrier lifetime are obtained in the binary InP barriers.

Patel Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences 103 (13)-- March 26, 2006 ...[Visit Journal] We report substantially improved performance of high-power quantum cascade lasers (QCLs) by using epitaxial-side-down mounting that provides superior heat dissipation properties. We used aluminum nitride as the heatsink material and gold–tin eutectic solder. We have obtained continuous wave power output of 450 mW at 20°C from mid-IR QCLs. The improved thermal management achieved with epitaxial-side-down mounting combined with a highly manufacturable and scalable assembly process should permit incorporation of mid-IR QCLs in reliable instrumentation.

Sci. Technol. 5 274-- December 11, 1989 ...[Visit Journal] The authors report the first fabrication of Ga0.49In0.51P/GaxIn1-xAs n- and p-type lattice matched (x=1) and strained (x-0.85) heterostructure insulated gate field effect transistor (HIGFET) grown by low-pressure metal-organic chemical vapour deposition (LP MOCVD). The growth conditions of Ga0.49In0.51P have been optimised to produce a high-purity insulator material. The n-type devices show good pinch-off characteristics, with a small variation of threshold voltage with temperature consecutive to the low trap density in that system. High transconductance values have been obtained on p-type devices, due to the large valence band discontinuity between GaAs and Ga0.49In0.51P. [reprint (PDF)]
9.	On the Description of the Collision Terms in Three-Valley Hydrodynamic Models for GaAs Device Modeling C. Besikci and M. Razeghi IEEE Transactions on Electron Devices 41 (8)-- August 1, 1994 ...[Visit Journal] A reduced set of transport parameters is proposed for the collision terms of the three-valley hydrodynamic model which is a faster alternative to ensemble Monte Carlo simulations. The predictions of the proposed model have been found to be in excellent agreement with transient ensemble Monte Carlo data. The reduction in the number of the transport parameters makes the model relatively easy to implement with substantial accuracy. The transport parameters which are of interest in semiclassical device modeling are presented as a function of electron energy. [reprint (PDF)]

Extremely large responsivities of 33.2 AW(-1) were obtained from n-type GaInAs/InP QWIPs operating at lambda = 9 mum. Devices made from n-type AlGaInAs/InP and GaInAs/AlInAs have also been realized that extend the wavelength range of sensitivity from 3 mum out to 20 mum while remaining lattice-matched to InP. Lattice-matched multispectral detectors are demonstrated for sensitivity at both 4 and 8.5 mum Localized epitaxy of GaInAs/InP superlattice structures lattice-matched to InP was performed on Si substrate for the purpose of monolithic integration of III-V QWIPs with Si-based read-out integrated circuitry.

9.	Novel Green Light Emitting Diodes: Exploring Droop-Free Lighting Solutions for a Sustainable Earth M. Razeghi, C. Bayram, R. McClintock, F. Hosseini Teherani, D.J. Rogers, and V.E. Sandana Journal of Light Emitting Diodes, Vol. 2, No. 1, p. 1-33-- April 30, 2010 ...[Visit Journal] The total annual energy consumption in the United States for lighting is approximately 800 Terawatt-hours and costs $80 billion to the public. The energy consumed for lighting throughout the world entails to greenhouse gas emission equivalent to 70% of the emissions from all the cars in the world. Novel solutions to lighting with higher efficiency will drastically reduce the energy consumption and help greenhouse gas emissions to be lowered. Novel green light emitting diodes are the key components of an affordable, durable and environmentally benign lighting solution that can achieve unique spectral quality and promise superior energy conversion efficiency. Light-emitting diodes (LEDs), based on the InGaN alloy, are currently the most promising candidates for realizing solid state lighting (SSL). InGaN is a direct wide bandgap semiconductor with an emission that can span the entire visible spectrum via compositional tuning. However, InGaN LED performance remains wavelength-dependent. Indeed, ultrabright and efficient blue InGaN-based LEDs are readily available but the performance of InGaN-based green LEDs is still far from adequate for use in SSL. Our recent work demonstrated hybrid green light-emitting diodes (LEDs) comprised of n-ZnO/(InGaN/GaN) multi-quantum-wells/p-GaN were grown on semi-insulating AlN/sapphire using pulsed laser deposition for the n-ZnO and metal organic chemical vapor deposition for the other layers.. We have shown that atop grown ZnO layer by Pulsed Laser Deposition can be a good replacement for GaN. The green wavelength emission requires significant indium content in the active layer (growth temperature ~ 700ºC) that makes InGaN quantum wells very susceptible to thermal degradation. With our technology, diffusion and segregation of indium in the green emitting active is inhibited thanks to the lower ZnO deposition temperatures (<600ºC) than is required for GaN (>1000ºC). Our novel technology preserves the integrity of the as-grown active layer and demonstrates superior green spectral quality (as demonstrated for LEDs on c-sapphire). The results indicate that hybrid LED structures could hold prospects for the development of green LEDs with superior performance. [reprint (PDF)]

Starting from the basic semiconductor heterostructure, band structure engineering has evolved into a powerful discipline, employing lower dimensionality to demonstrate new material properties. Several modern technologies under development are used as examples of how this discipline is enabling new types of devices and new functionality in areas with immediate application.
