摘要:
A solution for designing a semiconductor device, in which two or more attributes of a pair of electrodes are determined to, for example, minimize resistance between the electrodes, is provided. Each electrode can include a current feeding contact from which multiple fingers extend, which are interdigitated with the fingers of the other electrode in an alternating pattern. The attributes can include a target depth of each finger, a target effective width of each pair of adjacent fingers, and/or one or more target attributes of the current feeding contacts. Subsequently, the device and/or a circuit including the device can be fabricated.

A superlattice layer including a plurality of periods, each of which is formed from a plurality of sub-layers is provided. Each sub-layer comprises a different composition than the adjacent sub-layer(s) and comprises a polarization that is opposite a polarization of the adjacent sub-layer(s). In this manner, the polarizations of the respective adjacent sub-layers compensate for one another.

A solution for designing and/or fabricating a structure including a quantum well and an adjacent barrier is provided. A target band discontinuity between the quantum well and the adjacent barrier is selected to coincide with an activation energy of a dopant for the quantum well and/or barrier. For example, a target valence band discontinuity can be selected such that a dopant energy level of a dopant in the adjacent barrier coincides with a valence energy band edge for the quantum well and/or a ground state energy for free carriers in a valence energy band for the quantum well. The quantum well and the adjacent barrier can be formed such that the actual band discontinuity corresponds to the target band discontinuity.

A solution for treating a fluid, such as water, is provided. The solution first removes a set of target contaminants that may be present in the fluid using a filtering solution. The filtered fluid enters a disinfection chamber where it is irradiated by ultraviolet radiation to harm microorganisms that may be present in the fluid. An ultraviolet radiation source and/or the disinfection chamber can include one or more attributes configured to provide more efficient irradiation and/or higher disinfection rates.

Ultraviolet radiation is shone within an area and detected. The detected ultraviolet radiation is monitored over a period of time to determine a set of biological activity dynamics for the area. Ultraviolet radiation detected during a calibration period can be used to provide a baseline with which analysis of subsequently detected ultraviolet radiation is compared and analyzed. When the presence of biological activity is determined within the area, ultraviolet radiation and/or one or more other approaches can be utilized to suppress the biological activity.

An emitting device including an active region having quantum wells alternating with barriers of varying compositions is provided. The barriers can be composed of a group III-nitride based material, in which a molar fraction of one or more of the group III elements in two barriers adjacent to a single quantum well differ by at least one percent. Two barriers adjacent to a single quantum well can have barrier heights differing by at least one percent.

摘要:
A method of managing radiation having a frequency in the terahertz and/or microwave regions. The method comprises providing a semiconducting device having a two-dimensional carrier gas. Plasma waves are generated in the carrier gas using a laser pulse. The frequency of the plasma waves, and as a result, the generated radiation are adjusted using a voltage applied to the semiconducting device.

A light emitting heterostructure and/or device in which the light generating structure is contained within a potential well is provided. The potential well is configured to contain electrons, holes, and/or electron and hole pairs within the light generating structure. A phonon engineering approach can be used in which a band structure of the potential well and/or light generating structure is designed to facilitate the emission of polar optical phonons by electrons entering the light generating structure. To this extent, a difference between an energy at a top of the potential well and an energy of a quantum well in the light generating structure can be resonant with an energy of a polar optical phonon in the light generating structure material. The energy of the quantum well can comprise an energy at the top of the quantum well, an electron ground state energy, and/or the like.
