应变补偿层对量子点生长影响的理论研究

量子点的光学特性与量子点的大小均匀性、密度、内部应变以及隔离层的厚度等有密切关系.文中从理论角度定量研究了GaNXAs1-X应变补偿层对InAs/GaAs量子点生长质量的改善作用,分析了应变补偿层对隔离层厚度减小的作用.讨论了应变补偿层的补偿位置和补偿层N组分X对量子点生长时局部应变和体系应变的补偿作用.分析了应变补偿层对体系应变的减少作用,并计算了相邻层量子点的垂直对准概率.研究结果对实验中应变补偿的优化和高质量量子点阵列的生长实现提供了理论依据.

Lateral stress-induced propagation characteristics in photonic crystal fibres

Using the finite element method, this paper investigates lateral stress-induced propagation characteristics in a photonic crystal fibre of hexagonal symmetry. The results of simulation show the strong stress dependence of effective index of the fundamental guided mode, phase modal birefringence and confinement loss. It also finds that the contribution of the geometrical effect that is related only to deformation of the photonic crystal fibre and the stress-related contribution to phase modal birefringence and confinement loss are entirely different. Furthermore, polarization-dependent stress sensitivity of confinement loss is proposed in this paper.
