Near-infrared to visible up-conversion in a forward-biased Schottky diode with a p-doped channel
Near-infrared radiation of wavelength 1.5 µm is up-converted to a visible wavelength of 818 nm by internal photoemission in a Schottky diode with a modulation p-doped channel. The near-infrared ...

We show that two-photon photocurrent imaging can be used to nondestructively study vertical cavity surface emitting lasers on a microscopic level. In particular, we study the aperture isolation created by shallow ion implantation. The combination of two-photon backside imaging and a probe station is ideal for internal and full wafer characterization. The required peak and average power levels for testing can be easily satisfied by available compact ultrafast laser sources, making the technique practical and user friendly. ©2000 American Institute of Physics.
