    摘要: In a waveguide path coupling-type photodiode, a semiconductor light absorbing layer and an optical waveguide path core are adjacently arranged. An electrode formed of at least one layer is installed in a boundary part of the semiconductor light absorbing layer and the optical waveguide path core. The electrodes are arranged at an interval of (1/100)λ to λ [λ: wavelength of light transmitted through optical waveguide path core]. At least a part of the electrodes is embedded in the semiconductor light absorbing layer. Embedding depth from a surface of the semiconductor light absorbing layer is a value not more than λ/(2 ns) [ns: refractive index of semiconductor light absorbing layer]. At least one layer of the electrode is constituted of a material which can surface plasmon-induced.

    摘要: Provided is a small-size optical phase modulation element and an optical modulator using it. The optical phase modulation element includes a Plasmon waveguide having a clad made of a metal material having a complex dielectric constant having a negative real part in the used wavelength and a core formed by a dielectric metal material having a complex dielectric constant having a positive real part in the used wavelength. The Plasmon waveguide is connected to an optical waveguide including a clad and a core both having a complex dielectric constant having a positive real part. The core of the Plasmon waveguide and the core of the optical waveguide are formed, at least partially, of the same semiconductor material. The Plasmon waveguide has a function to phase-modulate the incident light when voltage is applied.

    摘要: In a spin tunnel magnetoresistive effect film in which a magnetic thin film to which an exchange bias is applied by exchange coupling via an anti-ferromagnetic thin film and a magnetic thin film that detects a magnetic field are laminated, a magnetic thin film or an anti-ferromagnetic thin film (PtMn, PdMn, NiMn) is laminated onto an underlayer (Ta, Zr, Hf), the surface roughness thereof being in the range from 0.1 to 5 Angstroms. A means used to control the surface roughness introduces into the film growing chamber oxygen, nitrogen, hydrogen, or a gas mixture thereof into a vacuum of 10−6 Torr to 10−9 Torr, reduces the substrate temperature to 0° C. or lower during film growth, or oxidizes an underlayer. The lower electrode layer material used is a film laminate of a high-permeability amorphous magnetic material and a non-magnetic metallic layer.
