    Notes: A new probe made entirely of plastic material has been developed for scanning probe microscopy. Using a polymer for the cantilever facilitates the realization of mechanical properties that are difficult to achieve with classical silicon technology. The new cantilever and tip presented here are made of an epoxy-based photoplastic. The fabrication process is a simple batch process in which the integrated tip and the lever are defined in one photolithography step. The simplicity of the fabrication step, the use of a polymer as material, and the ability to reuse the silicon mold lead to a soft low-cost probe for scanning force microscopy. Imaging soft condensed matter with photoplastic levers, which uses laser beam deflection sensing, exhibits a resolution that compares well with that of commercially available silicon cantilevers. © 1999 American Institute of Physics.

    Probe beam heating of AlGaAs single-quantum-well laser facets in Raman microprobe spectroscopy (1990)
    [S.l.] : American Institute of Physics (AIP)

    Notes: The facet temperature of AlGaAs single-quantum-well laser diodes were examined via Raman microprobe spectroscopy. The facets were fabricated either by cleaving in air or by chemically assisted ion-beam etching. The ridge width was 5 μm. Large sample-dependent variations in the heating induced by the argon probe beam are observed. These variations correlate with the appearance of disorder-induced modes in the Raman spectrum and the bias current-induced heating of the laser facet.

    Raman microprobe study of the time development of AlGaAs single quantum well laser facet temperature on route to catastrophic breakdown (1991)

    Notes: The facet temperature and output power of uncoated AlGaAs single quantum well lasers operated at constant current were measured as a function of time until catastrophical breakdown. The temperature rise is observed to consist of two regimes−an initial linear temperature rise accompanied by a gradual power degradation followed by a rapid nonlinear temperature rise at what appears to be a critical temperature leading to catastrophical optical damage (COD). The time to COD and the pre-COD facet temperature rise rate are found to have a strong dependence on the diode output power. This facet temperature behavior plus the data obtained from an argon laser probe beam induced heating experiment provide valuable information regarding the mechanisms leading to COD.

    Micromachined photoplastic probe for scanning near-field optical microscopy (2001)
    [S.l.] : American Institute of Physics (AIP)

    Notes: We present a hybrid probe for scanning near-field optical microscopy (SNOM), which consists of a micromachined photoplastic tip with a metallic aperture at the apex that is attached to an optical fiber, thus combining the advantages of optical fiber probes and micromachined tips. The tip and aperture are batch fabricated and assembled to a preetched optical fiber with micrometer centering precision. Rectangular apertures of 50 nm×130 nm have been produced without the need of any postprocessing. Topographical and optical imaging with a probe having an aperture of 300 nm demonstrate the great potential of the photoplastic probe for SNOM applications. © 2001 American Institute of Physics.

    Conductance statistics of small-area ohmic contacts on GaAs (1990)

    Notes: The conductance distributions of very small-area alloyed ohmic contacts on n+-GaAs have been studied as a function of lateral contact size d, with d ranging from 4 μm down to 0.3 μm. The data are fairly well represented by a Poisson distribution, which takes into account the granularity of the alloyed contacts, as previously reported. We deduce an average distance of dc (approximately-equal-to)0.41 μm between conducting grains and a dead zone of ld (approximately-equal-to)600 A(ring) due to dry etching of the GaAs.

    Resistance of very small area ohmic contacts on GaAs (1989)

    Notes: Very small area, alloyed ohmic contacts on n+-GaAs etched mesas have been fabricated and their resistance measured. The nominal contact size ranges from 10 down to 0.1 μm on a side. The data show an extremely large increase of the resistance spread as the contact size is reduced. Grain size effects in the alloyed contacts and dead zones due to ion etching are discussed as possible causes for the observations.

    Stepwise-graded-index multilayer broadband low-reflectivity coating for AlGaAs/GaAs power lasers (1989)
    Woodbury, NY : American Institute of Physics (AIP)

    Notes: We describe a new type of optical low-reflectivity coating and its application to GaAs/AlGaAs power lasers. The low-reflectivity region of this coating extends over a broad wavelength range, therefore making the overall reflectivity much less sensitive to thickness variations as compared to single-layer coatings. In addition, only two materials (SiO2 and a-Si:H) are required, thus making it very easy to fabricate such coatings with standard deposition techniques such as plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) or ion beam sputtering. Finally, the optical quality of coatings deposited by PECVD was confirmed by measurements on power lasers, showing optical power outputs in excess of 60 W/mm, among the highest reported value for coated mirrors.

    Highly parallel data storage system based on scanning probe arrays (2000)

    Notes: This letter discusses an alternative storage approach to conventional magnetic data storage. The approach uses a 32×32 array of scanning probe microscopes working in parallel to read and write data as small indentations in a polymer storage medium. The results have densities of 100–200 Gbit/in.2. At such densities, it is shown that well over half the array works, and at lower densities more than 80% of levers are working. © 2000 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: We report a simple atomic force microscopy-based concept for a hard disk-like data storage technology. Thermomechanical writing by heating a Si cantilever in contact with a spinning polycarbonate disk has already been reported. Here the medium has been replaced with a thin polymer layer on a Si substrate, resulting in significant improvements in storage density. With this new medium, we achieve bit sizes of 10–50 nm, leading to data densities of 500 Gbit/in.2. We also demonstrate a novel high-speed and high-resolution thermal readback method, which uses the same Si cantilevers that are used in the writing process, and the capability to erase and rewrite data features repeatedly. © 1999 American Institute of Physics.

    Sequential position readout from arrays of micromechanical cantilever sensors (1998)

    Notes: Sequential position readout from a microfabricated array of eight cantilever-type sensors (silicon technology) is demonstrated. In comparison with single sensors we find that mechanical disturbances from noise, such as from vibrations, turbulent gas flow, or abrupt pressure changes, can be effectively removed in array sensors by recording difference signals with respect to reference cantilevers. We demonstrate that chemically specific responses can be extracted in a noisy environment using a sensor to detect specific chemical interactions and an uncoated cantilever as reference. © 1998 American Institute of Physics.
