The separation between the two nanostructures is controlled via silica layer with varied thickness. We observe strong increase of the emission intensity for a 12- nm-thick spacer and the increase is accompanied with shortening of the fluorescence lifetime, which allows us to separate contributions of absorption and emission rate enhancement. At the same time we find an increase of photobleaching. These findings are interpreted as a result of spectral overlap between plasmon resonance and chlorophyll fluorescence.展开更多

It ranges from 50 to 300 mA and corresponds to current densities from 34 to 201 A/cm^2.To separate the impact of current from that of temperature, the junction temperature is kept constant by adjusting the heat sink temperature. Higher current was found to strongly accelerate the optical power reduction during operation. A mathematical model for lifetime prediction is introduced.It indicates that lifetime is inversely proportional to the cube of the current density, suggesting the involvement of Auger recombinati on.展开更多

The coupling coefficient between the flux transformer and the planar gradiometer is 0.18. The transformer increases effectively the resolution of the gradiometer. A magnetic field gradient resolution of 73 fT.cm?1Hz?1/2 in the white region and 596 fT.cm?1Hz?1/2 at 1 Hz has been obtained. High quality magnetocardiogram signals have been successfully measured by using this flip-chip-type gradiometer in an unshielded environment.展开更多
