AbstractWe theoretically and numerically demonstrate that the spontaneous parity-time (PT) symmetry breaking phase transition can be realized respectively by using two independent tuning ways in a tri-layered metamaterial that consists of periodic array of metal-semiconductor Schottky junctions. The existence conditions of PT symmetry and its phase transition are obtained by using a theoretical model based on the coupled mode theory. A hot-electron photodetection based on the same tri-layered metamaterial is proposed, which can directly show the spontaneous PT symmetry breaking phase transition in photocurrent and possesses dynamical tunability and switchability. This work extends the concept of PT symmetry into the hot-electron photodetection, enriches the functionality of the metamaterial and the hot-electron device, and has varieties of potential and important applications in optoelectronics, photodetection, photovoltaics, and photocatalytics.

ABSTRACT This work presents the broad-band time-averaged spectral analysis of neutron star (NS) low-mass X-ray binary, XTE J1710−281 by using the Suzaku archival data. The source was in a hard or an intermediate spectral state during this observation. This is the first time that a detailed spectral analysis of the persistent emission spectra of XTE J1710−281 has been done up to 30 keV with improved constraints on its spectral parameters. By simultaneously fitting the X-ray Imaging Spectrometer (0.6–9.0 keV) and the HXD-PIN (15.0–30.0 keV) data, we have modelled the persistent spectrum of the source with models comprising a soft component from accretion disc and/or NS surface/boundary layer and a hard Comptonizing component. The 0.6–30 keV continuum with neutral absorber can be described by a multicolour disc blackbody with an inner disc temperature of kTdisc = 0.28 keV, which is significantly Comptonized by the hot electron cloud with electron temperature of kTe ≈ 5 keV and described by photon index Γ = 1.86. A more complex three-component model comprising a multicolour disc blackbody ≈0.30 keV, single-temperature blackbody ≈0.65 keV, and Comptonization from the disc, partially absorbed (about 38 per cent) by an ionized absorber (log(ξ) ≈ 4) describes the broad-band spectrum equally well.

Analytical solutions of a Dirac-type equation as effective mass equation. for electrons are obtained and by means of these solutions we have analytically calculated the relativistic transmission coefficient for quantum electron ballistic tunneling through Ga 1−x Al x As -GaAs single barriers. This solution for the transmission coefficient is applied to the tunnel injector of a hot electron device finding that relativistic corrections yield small but significant shifts in the transmittance-voltage characteristics.

ABSTRACTThe multiple-scan method of electron beam annealing has been used to activate shallow (Rp<150Å), highly doped silicon layers produced by ion implantation of arsenic at 10keV. Beam conditions have been optimised (600Wcm−2 for 100ms) to produce essentially undiffused layers, as determined by high resolution SIMS, containing high concentrations of electrically active arsenic impurities. Computer modelling of diffusion effects in such layers has been used to identify optimum beam conditions and the calculations have been compared with experimental results. Hot electron device structures, which depend on negligible diffusion and high electrical activity, have been fabricated using the multiplescan method with a peak annealing temperature of 900°C.
