    Notes: The processes of crack growth and dislocation emission induced by the crack tip are investigated. A crystal with cubic lattice of atoms under plane strain conditions is considered. The main principles of the nanofracture mechanics approach employed in this study are outlined. Both ductile and brittle mechanisms of crack growth in the crystal are examined in nano- or interatomic scale. Only the fundamental constants of the classical theory of dislocations are used which include the interatomic spacing, elastic constants, the Schmid friction constant, and the true surface energy of crystal lattice. The efficient solution of the elastic problem for an arbitrary number of dislocations near the crack tip is obtained in terms of complex potential functions. The equilibrium of dislocation pairs near the crack tip during monotonic loading is investigated. It is shown that dislocation generation at the crack tip occurs at certain quantum levels of external load. The magnitude of external load corresponding to crack growth initiation and emission of the first pair of dislocations is calculated. The mathematical problem for an arbitrary N number of dislocation pairs near the crack tip is reduced to a parametric system of N nonlinear equations, where the stress intensity factor of external load KI plays the role of parameter and N the role of discrete time. The minimum value of KI at which the solution of this system of equations exists corresponds to the stress intensity factor at which the Nth pair of dislocations is generated. The numerical method is presented to determine the minimum value of KI. The approximate method of self-consistent field is employed to reduce the order of the system of nonlinear equations. The approximate method is used to calculate the fracture curve KI(lc) relating the value of KI which maintains the crack growth to the crack length increment lc. The exact solution is also studied, and numerical results are given for a crack in an aluminum specimen and involve the quantum levels of external load corresponding to the moments of dislocation generation and the values of the superfine stress intensity factor up to 150 dislocations. © 1995 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Isotherms and x-ray diffraction studies of eicosanoic acid Langmuir monolayers show a phase in which the molecular tilt is intermediate between nearest-neighbor (NN) and next-nearest-neighbor (NNN) directions. The transition from this "I" phase to an NN-tilted structure is first order, with a ∼60° change in the tilt direction, while the transition to an NNN-tilted structure is apparently continuous. These results can be explained using a Landau-type theory for uniaxially distorted lattices, which is a modification of an existing theory for hexagonal lattices [J. V. Selinger and D. R. Nelson, Phys. Rev. Lett. 61, 416 (1988)]. © 1997 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: We describe the design of a novel near-field scanning optical microscope for cryogenic temperatures and operation in vacuum. A helium flow cryostat is used for active temperature control of the sample in the range between 8 and 330 K, while all components of the near-field microscope are kept at room temperature. This design greatly simplifies near-field microscopy at variable sample temperatures and permits large piezoelectric scan ranges of up to 100×100×10 μm 3, the implementation of hardware-linearized piezoelectric scan stages, as well as flexible coarse positioning. First experiments with single GaAs quantum wires demonstrate the excellent performance of this new instrument. © 1997 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: A cubic GaN p–n diode has been grown on n-type GaAs (001) substrates by plasma assisted molecular epitaxy. For p- and n-type doping, elemental Mg and Si beams have been used, respectively. The optical properties are characterized by photoluminescence at room temperature and 2 K. Current–voltage and capacitance–voltage measurements of the cubic GaN n+–p junction are performed at room temperature. The electroluminescence at 300 K is measured through a semitransparent Au contact. A peak emission at 3.2 eV with a full width at half maximum as narrow as 150 meV is observed, indicating that near-band edge transitions are the dominating recombination processes in our device. A linear increase of the electroluminescence intensity with increasing current density is measured. © 2000 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: TE/TM polarization bistability in a λ=1.3 μm ridge-waveguide InGaAsP/InP bulk laser is studied by near-field scanning optical microscopy with an optical resolution of better than λ/8. The near-field mode profiles of TE and TM emission show different lateral widths and distinctly different mode center positions. This lateral shift is related to a nonuniform strain distribution along the active layer. Based on this strain gradient, we present a model that accounts for the hysteresislike current dependence of the polarization resolved laser output. © 1996 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: We report a time-resolved near-field luminescence study of excitonic real-space transfer into single GaAs quantum wires. Excitons generated by local optical excitation in a 250 nm spot undergo diffusive transport over a length of several microns and are subsequently trapped into the quantum wire by optical phonon emission. Local energy barriers in the vicinity of the quantum wire, originating from the epitaxial growth mechanism of the nanostructure, directly influence the real-space transfer dynamics and trapping efficiency. © 1998 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: The potential of optical near-field photocurrent spectroscopy for analyzing microscopic aging processes in optoelectronic devices is demonstrated. The technique combines the subwavelength spatial resolution of near-field optics with tunable laser excitation, allowing for selective investigation of specific parts of the device structure. Experiments on GaAs/(AlGa)As high power laser diodes before and after accelerated aging provide direct visualization of defect growth within the p-i-n junction and information on aging-enhanced recombination processes close to the laser facet. The effect of wave guiding of the exciting light on the image formation is discussed. The nondestructiveness makes this technique a particularly attractive method for in situ analysis in high power laser diodes. © 1996 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Applying an absorber technique, the experimental shape and width of a parametric x-radiation line has been determined. The 9 keV radiation was produced by bombarding a diamond crystal of 55 μm thickness with electrons of 6.8 MeV. The variance of the spectral line distribution was found to depend on the tilt angle of the crystal and to have a magnitude of σ=51 eV. Simulations based on a Monte Carlo method exhibit that the observed variance is mainly influenced by multiple scattering of electrons passing through the crystal ((approximate)43 eV) and the finite detector opening ((approximate)18 eV), leaving for the intrinsic linewidth a value of the order of 1 eV. The spectral density of the line was found to be J(approximate)10−7 photons/(electron×sr×eV). © 1997 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: The emission profiles of laser diodes working at 780 nm and 1300 nm are studied by near-field scanning optical microscopy. As the near-field probe is scanned across the laser mirror facet, the laser emission induces a transient expansion of the probe tip which is monitored using shear force microscopy. The thermal expansion of the tips reaches absolute values of up to 100 nm per mW of emitted laser power. A fully metallized near-field probe tip is shown to serve as a local bolometer with a spatial resolution of better than 1 μm. © 1996 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: We report on gate voltage dependent electron transport in modulation-doped In0.75Al0.25As/In0.75Ga0.25As heterostructures with strained InAs-inserted-channels grown on GaAs substrates. At temperatures of T=4.2 K we achieve mobilities of up to μ=215 000 cm2(V s)−1 and electron densities of nS=1.2×1012 cm−2 for the highest measured gate voltage of Vg=20 V. The electron effective mass m*=0.036 me is determined by temperature dependent Shubnikov–de Haas measurements. The observation of an anisotropic mobility when the first excited subband becomes populated proves interface scattering to be the limiting mechanism for the electron mobility. © 2000 American Institute of Physics.
