Wide-field, real-time depth-resolved imaging using structured illumination with photorefractive holography
We have demonstrated real-time, wide-field depth-resolved imaging by combining the techniques of structured illumination and photorefractive holography. These proof of principle experiments illustrate...

Intrinsic nonlinearity of the light–current characteristic of semiconductor lasers with a quantum-confined active region
We describe a mechanism of nonlinearity of the light–current characteristic common to heterostructure lasers with a reduced-dimensionality active region. It arises from (i) noninstantaneous carri...

Based on AlInGaN/AlInGaN multiquantum wells, we compare properties of ultraviolet light-emitting diodes (LED) with peak emission at 340 nm grown on free-standing hydride vapor phase epitaxially grown GaN substrate and on sapphire. For the LED grown on GaN substrate, a differential resistance as low as 13 Omega and an output power of more than one order of magnitude higher than that of the same structure grown on sapphire are achieved. Due to higher thermal conductivity of GaN, output power of the LEDs saturates at higher injection currents compared to the devices grown on sapphire. ©2002 American Institute of Physics.
