摘要:
A method of fabricating a thin film transistor device including forming first and second spaced apart control electrodes on a surface of a supporting substrate and forming a dielectric layer over the control electrodes. Inorganic and organic thin film transistors are formed on the dielectric layer, one on each control electrode. The inorganic and organic thin film transistors are n-type and p-type conductivity, respectively, and may be integrated into a complementary circuit. Also, the thin film transistor device is fabricated at relatively low temperatures so that plastic supporting substrates can be utilized.

A top emitting vertical cavity surface emitting laser with an etch stop layer positioned in the top mirror stack so the stack can be etched to form a trench surrounding a mesa with the emitting area on the mesa and the trench confining current flow and lasing to the mesa.
摘要:
VCSELs including a central active layer with upper and lower mirror stacks wherein a circular trench is formed in one mirror stack to define a lasing area. The trench reduces reflectivity to prevent lasing outside the operating area and an oxygen implant in the trench confines current distribution to maximize power output and efficiency. The trench allows self-alignment throughout most of the manufacturing process.

A vertical cavity laser with unstable resonator including a substrate having opposed major surfaces with a first semiconductor mirror stack positioned on one major surface of the substrate, an active region positioned on the first stack and a second semiconductor mirror stack positioned on the active region so as to sandwich the active region between the first and second stacks. Layers of the second stack being etched so as to spatially modulate the thickness of the second stack such that reflectivity is reduced in a central portion of the second stack and increases toward an edge thereof.
摘要:
A chemical sensor includes a thin film transistor with a gate positioned on one side. An insulating layer is positioned on the opposite side and an indicator film is positioned on the insulating layer in generally opposed relationship to the gate. Induced charge in the indicator film caused by a biological or chemical species changes the channel current in the transistor. A potential on the gate is then used to null out the resulting change in channel current. The potential used to null out the current change is an extremely sensitive measure of the induced charge.
摘要:
A target molecule at a binding site is detected using an optical waveguide having a surface proximate to the binding site, and a waveguide detector coupled to the optical waveguide. An incident light beam is applied to the binding site along an axis transverse to the surface of the optical waveguide. The incident light beam impinges an optical indicator associated with the target molecule to form secondary light which is coupled into the optical waveguide. The secondary light is detected by the waveguide detector to thereby detect the target molecule.
