Localized physical and chemical reactions induced by focused ion and electron beams, i.e. dual beams, have been used to fabricate
field emitters (FEs) and their arrays, field-emitter arrays (FEAs), without masking and annealing processes. Issues arising
from beam processing such as beam-induced damage and contamination were eliminated to provide FEAs with low leakage current.
Quick prototyping and repairing processes of FEs and FEAs using dual-beam processing have been demonstrated.
Nb- or Au-gated Pt FEAs have been fabricated using dual beams. The fabricated FEAs showed a turn-on voltage of 40 V for field
emission with a typical emission current of about 1 μA/tip.

Epitaxial (001) aluminum nitride (AlN) thin films on (111) Si substrates are prepared using pulsed-laser deposition. The epitaxial
structure of the as-prepared thin films is characterized by checking the X-ray-diffraction θ-2 θ scan and pole-figure, using
scanning electron microscopy, infrared radiation (IR) spectroscopy and Raman spectroscopy. The surface acoustic-wave resonance
at 345 MHz for a 1.5 μm thick AlN film on a (111) Si substrate is observed using an inter-digital electrode.

Transport and field-emission properties of as-synthesized CNx and BNCx (x<0.1) multi-walled nanotubes were compared in detail. Individual ropes made of these nanotubes and macrofilms of those
were tested. Before measurements, the nanotubes were thoroughly characterized using high-resolution and energy-filtered electron
microscopy, electron diffraction and electron-energy-loss spectroscopy. Individual ropes composed of dozens of CNx nanotubes displayed well-defined metallic behavior and low resistivities of ∼10–100 kΩ or less at room temperature, whereas
those made of BNCx nanotubes exhibited semiconducting properties and high resistivities of ∼50–300 MΩ. Both types of ropes revealed good field-emission
properties with emitting currents per rope reaching ∼4 μA(CNx) and ∼2 μA (BNCx), albeit the latter ropes se- verely deteriorated during the field emission. Macrofilms made of randomly oriented CNx or BNCx nanotubes displayed low and similar turn-on fields of ∼2–3 V/μm. 3 mA/cm2 (BNCx) and 5.5 mA/cm2 (CNx) current densities were reached at 5.5 V/μm macroscopic fields. At a current density of 0.2–0.4 mA/cm2 both types of compound nanotubes exhibited equally good emission stability over tens of minutes; by contrast, on increasing
the current density to 0.2–0.4 A/cm2, only CNx films continued to emit steadily, while the field emission from BNCx nanotube films was prone to fast degradation within several tens of seconds, likely due to arcing and/or resistive heating.

Aligned SiOx nanowire arrays standing on a Si substrate were successfully synthesized using a simple method by heating a single-crystalline
Si slice covered with SiO2 nanoparticles at 1000 °C in a flowing Ar atmosphere. The SiOx nanowire arrays were characterized by scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy. The SiOx nanowires become progressively thinner from bottom to top. The formation process of the SiOx nanowire arrays is closely related to a vapor–solid mechanism. Room-temperature photoluminescence measurements under excitation
at 260 nm showed that the SiOx nanowire arrays had a strong blue–green emission at 500 nm (about 2.5 eV), which may be related to oxygen defects.

Field emission from single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) aligned on a patterned gold surface is reported. The SWNT emitters
were prepared at room temperature by a self-assembly monolayer technique. SWNTs were cut into sub-micron lengths by sonication
in an acidic solution. Cut SWNTs were attached to the gold surface by the reaction between the thiol groups and the gold surface.
The field-emission measurements showed that the turn-on field was 4.8 V/μm at an emission current density of 10 μA/cm2. The current density was 0.5 mA/cm2 at 6.6 V/μm. This approach provides a novel route for fabricating CNT-based field-emission displays.

Diamond nanocone, graphitic nanocone, and mixed diamond and graphitic nanocone films have been synthesized through plasma
enhanced hot filament chemical vapor deposition (HFCVD). The field emission properties of these films have been experimentally
investigated. The studies have revealed that all three kinds of nanocone films have excellent field electron emission (FEE)
properties including low turn-on electric field and large emission current at low electric field. Compared with the diamond
nanocone films (emission current of 86 μA at 26 V/μm with the turn-on field of 10 V/μm), the graphitic nanocone films exhibit
higher FEE current of 1.8×102 μA at 13 V/μm and a lower turn-on filed of 4 V/μm. The mixed diamond and graphitic nanocone films have been found to posses
FEE properties similar to graphitic nanocone films (emission current of 1.7×102 μA at 20 V/μm with the turn-on field of 5 V/μm), but have much better FEE stability than the graphitic nanocone films.

Ferroelectric Bi3.25La0.75Ti3O12 (BLT) thin films have been grown on Pt/Ti/SiO2/Si substrates by chemical solution methods. X-ray diffraction analysis shows that BLT thin films are polycrystalline with
(171)-preferential orientation. Atomic force microscopy investigation shows that they have large grains about 120 nm in size.
A Pt/BLT/Pt capacitor has been fabricated and showed excellent ferroelectricity, with a remnant polarization and coercive
field of 24 μC/cm2 and 116 kV/cm, respectively. The capacitor shows no polarization fatigue up to 109 switching cycles. The optical constants (n,k) of the BLT thin films in the wavelength range 0.35–1.7 μm were obtained by
spectroscopic ellipsometry measurements, and the band-gap energy was found to be about 3.25 eV.

Highly oriented GaN nanowire arrays have been achieved by the catalytic reaction of gallium with ammonium. The resulting materials
were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), field-emission scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray
spectroscopy (EDS), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and selected-area electron diffraction (SAED). SEM images show
that the resulting materials are nanowire arrays with a uniform length of about 10 μm. XRD, EDS, TEM and SAED indicate that
the nanowire arrays are single-crystal hexagonal GaN with a wurtzite structure. They have diameters of 10 to 20 nm.

The preparation in thin film form of the known icosahedral phase in Ti-Ni-Zr bulk alloys has been investigated as a function
of substrate temperature. Films were deposited by pulsed laser deposition on sapphire substrates at temperatures ranging from
room temperature to 350 °C. Morphological and structural modifications have been followed by grazing-incidence and θ–2θ X-ray
diffraction, transmission electron diffraction and imaging. Chemical composition has been analyzed by electron probe microanalysis.
The in-depth variation of composition has been studied by secondary neutral mass spectroscopy. We show that pulsed laser deposition
at 275 °C makes the formation of a 1-μm-thick film of Ti-Ni-Zr quasicrystalline textured nanocrystallites possible.

A short review of our investigations devoted to the use of ion-beam-synthesized nanoclusters for silicon-based light emission
and nonvolatile memory effects is presented. Blue-violet light emission is demonstrated based on Ge-implanted silicon dioxide
layers thermally grown on silicon substrates. This version of silicon-based light emission relies on Ge-related defects in
the amorphous ≡Si–O–Si≡ network. The photoluminescence and electroluminescence are excited by a singlet S0–S1 transition of a neutral oxygen vacancy and by electron injection from the silicon substrate into the silicon dioxide layer,
respectively. Whereas the photoluminescence excitation is a well-known mechanism, for the case of electroluminescence an interpretation
was performed for the first time in the course of our studies. It was found that the most probable way to excite luminescence
centers is the impact excitation by hot electrons. Whereas the injection is explained by trap-assisted tunneling of electrons
from the substrate into the oxide, the electrons will be transported via traps or in the SiO2 conduction band. The application of the silicon-based light-emitting devices for an integrated optocoupler arrangement is
described. Another application of nanoclusters is based on the investigation of thin Si-implanted silicon dioxide layers for
nonvolatile memory devices. First promising results demonstrate that the observed programming window can reach several volts
and the devices exhibit excellent retention behavior. A 256 K-nv-SRAM is demonstrated showing a programming window of >1 V
for write pulses of 12 V/8 ms.

A new form of GaN nanomaterial (nanotweezers) has been obtained by chemical vapor deposition on an etched cubic MgO (100)
plane. The nanotweezers consist of a bottom rod and two arms. The bottom rods have diameters of about 100–150 nm and lengths
of about 200–500 nm, on which two arms grow out. The bottoms of the arms are about 40–70 nm and the tops are about 15–30 nm
in diameter, and 0.8–1.5 μm in length. X-ray and electron diffractions indicate the nanotweezers are zinc blende gallium nitride.
We infer that the fabrication of the GaN nanotweezers is associated with small convex hillocks on the surface of the etched
cubic MgO (100) single-crystal substrates and that the nanotweezers grow by a growth mechanism that is similar to vapor-phase
heteroepitaxy.

A swept-wavelength source is created by connecting four elements in series: a femtosecond fiber laser at 1.56 μm, a non-linear
fiber, a dispersive fiber and a tunable spectral bandpass filter. The 1.56-μm pulses are converted to super-continuum (1.1–2.2 μm)
pulses by the non-linear fiber, and these broadband pulses are stretched and arranged into wavelength scans by the dispersive
fiber. The tunable bandpass filter is used to select a portion of the super-continuum as a scan-wavelength output. A variety
of scan characteristics are possible using this approach. As an example, an output with an effective linewidth of approximately
1 cm-1 is scanned from 1350–1550 nm every 20 ns. Compared to previous scanning benchmarks of approximately 1 nm/μs, such broad,
rapid scans offer new capabilities: a gas sensing application is demonstrated by monitoring absorption bands of H2O, CO2, C2H2 and C2H6O at a pressure of 10 bar.

A single-frequency VCSEL has been used for the first time for high-resolution spectroscopy near 1.5 μm. The incorporated buried-tunnel-junction
technology enabled the realization of a long-wavelength InGaAlAs/InP VCSEL with low threshold current (0.925 mA), high output
powers (0.576 mW) and low series resistance (60 Ω). The high-speed tuning capability of the long-wavelength VCSEL was investigated
and used to conduct high-speed absorption spectroscopy. The peak tuning speed was measured to be 3.4 cm-1/μs and a 4.5-cm-1-wide NH3 spectrum was recorded in 2 μs. The VCSEL was used to measure highly resolved low-pressure spectra for pressures ranging from
9.6 mbar to 1 bar. The measured Doppler-broadened linewidth of 0.02 cm-1 agrees within 3% with the theoretical calculations. The availability and various advantages of 1.3–2-μm single-frequency
VCSELs as compared to edge-emitting diode lasers, such as a large current tuning range even at very high tuning frequencies,
and low production costs, should significantly expand the application fields for near-infrared laser gas sensors.

The sub-picosecond laser microstructuring of multilayer gratings is presented in this paper. A micromachining system operating
with a 0.5 ps KrF laser at 248 nm was used to etch grating structures with a groove width of 1–2 μm in Mo/Si and Si/Mo multilayers.
Atomic force microscopy, scanning electron microscopy and X-ray reflectivity were used to characterize the microetched patterns.
The ω-scans around the 1st Bragg maximum show symmetric satellites up to 3rd order, with positions corresponding to the grating
period. The use of sub-picosecond laser pulses minimizes the thermally affected zone and enhances the quality of the etched
features. Short pulse laser processing is advantageous for the fabrication of high spatial resolution microstructures required
in X-ray optics.

A novel instrument, based on cavity-ringdown spectroscopy (CRDS), has been developed for trace gas detection. The new instrument
utilizes a widely tunable optical parametric oscillator (OPO), which incorporates a zinc–germanium–phosphide (ZGP) crystal
that is pumped at 2.8 μm by a 25-Hz Er,Cr:YSGG laser. The resultant mid-IR beam profile is nearly Gaussian, with energies
exceeding 200 μJ/pulse between 6 and 8 μm, corresponding to a quantum conversion efficiency of approximately 35%. Vapor-phase
mid-infrared spectra of common explosives (TNT, TATP, RDX, PETN and Tetryl) were acquired using the CRDS technique. Parts-per-billion
concentration levels were readily detected with no sample preconcentration. A collection/flash-heating sequence was implemented
in order to enhance detection limits for ambient air sampling. Detection limits as low as 75 ppt for TNT are expected, with
similar concentration levels for the other explosives.

A portable modular gas sensor for measuring the 13C/12C isotopic ratio in CO2 with a precision of 0.8‰(±1σ) was developed for volcanic gas emission studies. This sensor employed a difference frequency generation (DFG)-based spectroscopic
source operating at 4.35 μm (∼2300 cm-1) in combination with a dual-chamber gas absorption cell. Direct absorption spectroscopy using this specially designed cell
permitted rapid comparisons of isotopic ratios of a gas sample and a reference standard for appropriately selected CO2 absorption lines. Special attention was given to minimizing undesirable precision degrading effects, in particular temperature
and pressure fluctuations.

We have observed low-macroscopic field electron emission from wide bandgap nanocrystalline Al doped SnO2 thin films deposited on glass substrates. The emission properties have been studied for different anode-sample spacings and for different Al concentrations in the films. The turn-on field and approximate work function were calculated and we have tried to explain the emission mechanism from this. The turn-on field was found to vary in the range 5.6–7.5 V/μm for a variation of anode sample spacing from 80–120 μm. The turn-on field was also found to vary from 4.6–5.68 V/μm for a fixed anode-sample separation of 80 μm with a variation of Al concentration in the films 8.16–2.31%. The Al concentrations in the films have been measured by energy dispersive X-ray analysis. Optical transmittance measurement of the films showed a high transparency with a direct bandgap ∼3.98 eV. Due to the wide bandgap, the electron affinity of the film decreased. This, along with the nanocrystalline nature of the films, enhanced the field emission properties.

We present the first photoacoustic spectrometer for gas sensing employing both the fundamental and the frequency-doubled radiation
of a continuously tunable high-pressure CO2 laser with room temperature operation. A quasi-phase-matched diffusion-bonded GaAs crystal is used in the system for second-harmonic
generation. A pulsed photoacoustic detection scheme with a non-resonant cell, equipped with an 80-microphone array, is employed.
The wide continuous tuning range in the fundamental (9.2–10.7 μm) and the frequency-doubled (4.6–5.35 μm) regimes, together
with the narrow linewidth of 540 MHz (0.018 cm-1) for the 10-μm region and of 1050 MHz (0.0315 cm-1) for the 5-μm region, allow the measurement of gas mixtures, individual species and isotope discrimination. This is illustrated
with measurements on NO and CO2. The measured isotope ratio 15
NO/14
NO=(3.58±0.55)×10-3 agrees well with the literature (3.700×10-3) and demonstrates the good selectivity of the system.

A micropolarizer of copper nanowire arrays within anodic alumina membrane (AAM) was fabricated by anodization of pure Al foil
and electrodeposition of Cu, respectively. X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy
investigations reveal that the ordered Cu nanowires are essentially single crystal, and have an average diameter of 90 nm.
Spectrophotometer measurements show that the copper nanowire arrays embedded in AAM can only transmit polarized light vertical
to the wires. An extinction ratio of 24 to 32 dB and an average insertion loss of 0.5 dB in the wavelength range of 1 to 2.2 μm
were obtained, respectively. Therefore Cu nanowire/AAM can be used as a wire grid type micropolarizer.
