This work presents the recent improvements in a computer program created to assist the design and analysis of quantum well, wire, and dot nanostructured semiconductor-based devices. The list of added features includes the calculation of heavy hole, light hole and split-off energy bands, dark current, photocurrent, and absorption spectrum. Additionally, the computer program allows self-consistent computation and can take into account the energy band non-parabolic effects in the effective mass approximation.

This study proposes a method to control the frequency-dependent scattering spectra from plasmonic spheres via the conservation of incident orbital angular momentum (OAM) in classical light scattering. By providing controllable distributions of OAM content, fractional vortex beams allow selective tailoring of Fano features present in coherent scattering processes. The applicability of this control methodology is briefly discussed in the context of plasmonic crystals that recent studies have shown possess modes described by a well-defined OAM content.

Changes in global DNA linking number can be accommodated by localized changes in helical structure. We have used single-molecule torque measurements to investigate sequence-specific strand separation and Z-DNA formation. By controlling the boundary conditions at the edges of sequences of interest, we have confirmed theoretical predictions of distinctive boundary-dependent backbending patterns in torque-twist relationships. Abrupt torque jumps are associated with the formation and collapse of DNA bubbles, permitting direct observations of DNA breathing dynamics.

We have demonstrated a new type all-optical tunable comb filter by using a long-period fiber gratings(LPG) pair spliced with an ytterbium doped fiber. When the 25.5cm long ytterbium doped fiber was used with the ytterbium doping concentration of ~0.82at%, the wavelength channel spacing and the isolation between channels were 0.7nm and 16-21dB, respectively, between 1545nm and 1555nm. Also, the optical comb filter was tuned up to `1.53π' phase shift at the launched pump power of 56mW with the LD at 976nm.

We present a quantitative method for relating system matrices to the complete-data space in maximum likelihood expectation maximization (MLEM) using the Kullback-Leibler distance. We show that a more accurate system matrix has a smaller Kullback-Leibler (KL) distance. System matrices of a coded aperture imaging system were used for comparison. The calculation of the KL distance is based on the Monte Carlo integral. We note that system matrices for the KL distance evaluation should be generated by underlying physics processes.

We apply ultrafast x-ray diffraction with femtosecond temporal resolution to monitor the lattice dynamics in a thin film of multiferroic BiFeO3 after above-band-gap photoexcitation. The sound-velocity limited evolution of the observed lattice strains indicates a quasi-instantaneous photoinduced stress which decays on a nanosecond time scale. This stress exhibits an inhomogeneous spatial profile evidenced by the broadening of the Bragg peak. These new data require substantial modification of existing models of photogenerated stresses in BiFeO3: the relevant excited charge carriers must remain localized to be consistent with the data.

We consider the optical properties of finite systems composed of a series of graphene sheets separated by thin dielectric layers. Because these systems respond as conductors to electric fields in the plane of the graphene sheets and as insulators to perpendicular electric fields, they can be expected to have properties similar to those of hyperbolic metamaterials. We show that under typical experimental conditions graphene/dielectric multilayers have enhanced Purcell factors, and enhanced photonic densities of states in both the terahertz (THz) and midinfrared (mid-IR) frequency range. These behaviors can be traced to the coupled plasmon modes of the multilayer graphene system. We show that these results can be obtained with just a few layers of graphene.

Constructing and tuning self‐organized three‐dimensional (3D) superstructures with tailored functionality is crucial in the nanofabrication of smart molecular devices. Herein we fabricate a self‐organized, phototunable 3D photonic superstructure from monodisperse droplets of one‐dimensional cholesteric liquid crystal (CLC) containing a photosensitive chiral molecular switch with high helical twisting power. The droplets are obtained by a glass capillary microfluidic technique by dispersing into PVA solution that facilitates planar anchoring of the liquid‐crystal molecules at the droplet surface, as confirmed by the observation of normal incidence selective circular polarized reflection in all directions from the core of individual droplet. Photoirradiation of the droplets furnishes dynamic reflection colors without thermal relaxation, whose wavelength can be tuned reversibly by variation of the irradiation time. The results provided clear evidence on the phototunable reflection in all directions.
