Scanning microphotoluminescence is used to characterise the fluorescence from a dye-loaded polymer deposited on a 5 x 5 nanoantenna dipole array. Vertical and horizontal scans show anisotropic emission patterns.
A Raman scattering spectroscopy study is reported through all four phases of a (K0.5Na0.5)NbO3 crystal and ((K0.5Na0.5)1-xLix)NbO3 for x=0.02 and 0.03. The transitions among the ferroelectric phases in the Li-free crystal are homogeneous and strongly hysteretic, with no evidence of a mixed-phase region between the rhombohedral and orthorhombic phases. The Raman pattern in the lowest-temperature phase in the Li-doped material differs significantly from that found for x=0 and suggest a structural phase boundary exists at for a Li concentration of less than 2%.
Galliumnitride has become a strategic superior material for space, defense and civil applications, primarily for power amplification at RF and mm-wave frequencies. For AlGaN/GaN high electron mobility transistors (HEMT), an outstanding performance combined together with low cost and high flexibility can be obtained using a System-in-a-Package (SIP) approach. Since thermal management is extremely important for these high power applications, a hybrid integration of the HEMT onto an AlN carrier substrate is proposed. In this study we investigate the temperature performance for AlGaN/GaN HEMTs integrated onto AlN using flip-chip mounting. Therefore, we use thermal simulations in combination with experimental results using micro-Raman spectroscopy and electrical dc-analysis.
