    摘要: An optical apparatus (100), an optical system (200) and a method (300) of light amplification by stimulated emission employ an endohedral metallofullerene (120, 220) as an active material coupled to an optical waveguide (110, 210). The endohedral metallofullerene (120, 220) is optically coupled to an optical field of the optical waveguide (110, 210). The coupled optical field produces a stimulated emission in the endohedral metallofullerene (120, 220). The optical system (200) further includes an optical source (230) that generates optical power (232) to pump a stimulated emission. The method (300) further includes optically pumping (330) the coupled endohedral metallofullerene by introducing an optical pump into the optical waveguide.

    摘要: A light emitting diode (100 or 150) includes a diode structure containing a quantum well (120), an enhancement layer (142), and a barrier layer (144 or 148) between the enhancement layer (142) and the quantum well (120). The enhancement layer (142) supports plasmon oscillations at a frequency that couples to photons produced by combination of electrons and holes in the quantum well (120). The barrier layer serves to block diffusion between the enhancement layer (142) and the diode structure.
