    Notes: We have developed a novel microchannel plate (MCP) by introducing new materials and process technologies. The key features of our MCP are summarized as follows: (i) bulk alumina as a substrate, (ii) the channel location defined by a programmed-hole puncher, (iii) thin film deposition by electroless plating and/or sol–gel process, and (iv) an easy fabrication process suitable for mass production and a large-sized MCP. The characteristics of the resulting MCP have been evaluated with a high input current source such as a continuous electron beam from an electron gun and Spindt-type field emitters to obtain information on electron multiplication. In the case of a 0.28 μA incident beam, the output current enhances ∼170 times, which is equal to 1% of the total bias current of the MCP at a given bias voltage of 2600 V. When we insert a MCP between the cathode and the anode of a field emission display panel, the brightness of luminescent light increases 3–4 times by multiplying the emitted electrons through pore arrays of a MCP. © 2000 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Acoustic phonon modes in isotropic cubic media are derived for a number of quantum-wire and quantum-dot geometries of significant interest in nanoelectronics and optoelectronics. In each case, the mode amplitude is determined by requiring that the mode energy be given by that of the properly quantized phonon. For the case of cylindrical quantum wires and quantum dots with rectangular faces, the Hamiltonians for the deformation potential interactions are derived. These quantized acoustic modes and the associated deformation potential Hamiltonians provide a basis for modeling carrier-acoustic-phonon interactions in a variety of mesoscopic devices. Our new results supplement previous treatments of related piezoelectric effects in cylindrical quantum wires.

    Notes: Secondary electron emission yields (SEEYs) were measured for silicon oxides which were thermally grown on doped silicon substrates. Generally, SEEY curves can be described by the so-called universal curve, i.e., one hump with a monotonic increase (decrease) before (after) the hump. However, we found that our thick oxide layers exhibited double-hump shaped SEEY curves instead of single-hump shaped curves. Additionally, we were able to change the shape of a SEEY curve with two humps to a curve with one hump, or vice versa, by varying the experimental parameters. This change in curve shape can be explained if we consider the competition between the oxide layer thickness and the electron's penetration depth, the charge accumulation due to emission of secondary electrons, and charge traps created during thermal oxidation at the same time. © 2001 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: The efficiency of a field emission display was improved significantly with a newly developed microchannel plate. The key features of this unit and its fabrication are summarized as follows: (a) bulk alumina is used as a substrate material, (b) channel location is defined by a programed-hole puncher, and (c) thin film deposition is conducted by electroless plating followed by a sol–gel process. With the microchannel plate between the cathode and the anode of a field emission display, the brightness of luminescent light increases three- to fourfold by electron multiplication through an array of pores in the device. In addition, the fabricated microchannel plate prevents spreading of electrons emitted from the cathode tips, thus improving both display resolution and picture quality. © 2000 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: The effects of phonon confinement on electron–acoustic-phonon scattering is studied in cylindrical semiconductor quantum wires. In the macroscopic elastic continuum model, the confined-phonon dispersion relations are obtained for several crystallographic directions with the two cardinal boundary conditions: free-surface and clamped-surface boundary conditions. The scattering rates due to the deformation potential interaction are obtained for these confined phonons and are compared with those of bulk-like phonons for a number of quantum wire materials. The results show that the inclusion of acoustic phonon confinement effects may be crucial for calculating accurate low-energy electron scattering rates in nanostructures. It is also demonstrated that the scattering rates may be significantly influenced by the direction of phonon propagation, especially for low-energy electrons. Furthermore, it has been found that there is a scaling rule governing the directional dependence of the scattering rates: the directions characterized by small Poisson ratios exhibit large scattering rates. © 1996 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Interactions of carriers with interface optical phonons dominate over other carrier–phonon scatterings in narrow quantum-well structures. Herein, a transfer matrix method is used to establish a formalism for determining the dispersion relations, electrostatic potentials, and Fröhlich interaction Hamiltonians of the interface optical phonons for multiple-interface heterostructure systems within the framework of the macroscopic dielectric continuum model. This method facilitates systematic calculations for complex structures where the conventional method is very difficult to implement. Several specific cases are treated to illustrate the advantages of the general formalism. © 1997 American Institute of Physics.
