In this paper, using an improved quantum theory to mesoscopic circuits developed recently by Li and Chen, the mesoscopic electron resonator is quantized based on the fundamental fact that the electric charge takes discrete value. With presentation transformation and unitary transformation, the SchrSdinger equation becomes an standard Mathieu equation. Then, the detailed energy spectrum and wave functions in the system axe obtained, which will be helpful to the observation of other characters of electron resonator. The average of currents and square of the current are calculated, the results show the existence of the current fluctuation, which causes the noise in the circuits, the influence of inductance to the noise is discussed. With the results achieved, the stability characters of mesoscopic electron resonator are studied firstly, these works would be benefit to the design and control of integrate circuit.展开更多

A kind of top-RTD and bottom-HEMT material structure is epitaxied on InP substrate through molecular beam epitaxy. Based on wet chemical etching, metal lift-off and air bridge interconnection technology, RTD and HEMT are fabricated simultaneously. The peak-to-valley current ratio of RTD is 7.7 and the peak voltage is 0.33 V at room temperature. The pinch-off voltage is -0.5 V and the current gain cut-frequency is 30 GHz for a 1.0 μm gate length depletion mode HEMT. The two devices are conformable in current magnitude, which is suitable for the construction of various RTD/HEMT monolithic integration logic circuits.展开更多

Active plasmonic systems enabling active control over the plasmonic properties in real time have opened up a wealth of potential applications. This review focuses on the development of active plasmonic response devices. Significant advances have been achieved in control over the dielectric properties of the active surrounding medium, including liquid crystals, polymers, photochromic molecules and inorganic materials, which in turn allows tuning of the reversible plasmon resonance switch of neighboring metal nanostructures.展开更多
