    摘要: Methods and systems for disinfecting a surface, can include a light source, and a transparent window located above the light source. The light source can be integrated into an object, and an outer surface of the object can be located above the transparent window. Light from the light source can irradiate the outer surface through the transparent window and from within the object to disinfect the outer surface of the object. The light can comprise violet and ultraviolet (UV) light. A photocatalytic layer comprising a photocatalytic material may also be located above the transparent window and below the outer surface.

    摘要: An optical device has a first optical layer with a first dispersion response as a first function of wavelength. A second optical layer has a second dispersion response as a function of wavelength that is different than the first function. A separating layer is located between the first and second optical layers and has a lower refractive index than the first layer and the second layer. A thickness of the separating layer is selected such that the first and second dispersion responses combine to create an anomalous dispersion about a target wavelength. The anomalous dispersion results in the optical device emitting a wideband coherent optical output about the target wavelength in response to an optical input at the target wavelength.

    摘要: A polarization controlled device has a first layer comprising a group III-nitride semiconductor substrate or template; a second group III-nitride semiconductor layer disposed over the group III-nitride semiconductor substrate or template; a third group III-nitride semiconductor layer disposed over the second group III-nitride semiconductor layer; and a fourth group III-nitride semiconductor layer disposed over the third group III-nitride semiconductor layer. A pn junction is formed at an interface between the third and fourth group III-nitride semiconductor layers. A polarization heterojunction is formed between the second group III-nitride semiconductor layer and the third group III-nitride semiconductor layer. The polarization junction has fixed charges of a polarity on one side of the polarization junction and fixed charges of an opposite polarity on an opposite side of the polarization junction. When unbiased, the pn junction comprises a first electric field that opposes the flow of carriers across the pn junction and the polarization junction comprises a second electric field that opposes the flow of oppositely charged carriers across the polarization junction.

    摘要: A method of thinning a bulk aluminum nitride substrate includes providing a bulk aluminum nitride (AlN) substrate with at least one epitaxially grown group-III-nitride layer on a first side of the substrate, applying a slurry having a high pH to a second side of the substrate opposite the first side, chemical mechanically polishing the second side of the substrate using the slurry to remove at least a portion of the substrate, resulting in a thinned layer with a thickness less than 50 microns, and bonding the epitaxial layer to a non-native substrate. A device has at least one active zone in a layer of epitaxial Group-III-nitride material, the epitaxial Group-III-nitride layer having a defect density of less than or equal to 10 8 /cm 2 .
