AbstractWe demonstrate quantum emission capabilities from boron nitride structures which are relevant for practical applications and can be seamlessly integrated into a variety of heterostructures and devices. First, the optical properties of polycrystalline BN films grown by metalorganic vapour-phase epitaxy are inspected. We observe that these specimens display an antibunching in the second-order correlation functions, if the broadband background luminescence is properly controlled. Furthermore, the feasibility to use flexible and transparent substrates to support hBN crystals that host quantum emitters is explored. We characterise hBN powders deposited onto polydimethylsiloxane films, which display quantum emission characteristics in ambient environmental conditions.

ABSTRACTThe effect of the Si:Ge ratio in SiGe/Si heterostructures on the structural and optical properties of SiGe/Si planar waveguide are reported here for Ge concentrations from 1 to 33.6%. The high propagation loss at 1.15 pm is due to band edge absorption, which increases as the Ge concentration increases, while the loss at longer wavelengths (1.523 pm) increases with decreasing Si concentration, due to the reduced optical confinement of the waveguide structure.

Abstract An essential area of nanophotonics is the creation of efficient quantum emitters operating at high frequencies. In this regard, plasmon nanoantennas based on nanoparticles on metal (nanopatch antennas) are incredibly relevant. We have created and investigated a new hybrid nanoantenna with a cube on metal and quantum emitters. We demonstrate an increase up to 60 times for the rate of spontaneous emission and the gap-plasmon mode changing for nanopatch antenna in the metallic well. The results show the possibility of creating plasmon antennas in a controlled way by creating an array of regularly arranged nanoscale cavities-resonators.

Developement of computer technology provides much improvements on electron microscopy, such as simulation of images, reconstruction of images and automatic controll of microscopes (auto-focussing and auto-correction of astigmatism) and design of electron microscope lenses by using a finite element method (FEM). In this investigation, procedures for simulating the optical properties of objective lenses of HREM and the characteristics of the new lens for HREM at 200 kV are described.The process for designing the objective lens is divided into three stages. Stage 1 is the process for estimating the optical properties of the lens. Firstly, calculation by FEM is made for simulating the axial magnetic field distributions Bzc of the lens. Secondly, electron ray trajectory is numerically calculated by using Bzc. And lastly, using Bzc and ray trajectory, spherical and chromatic aberration coefficients Cs and Cc are numerically calculated. Above calculations are repeated by changing the shape of lens until! to find an optimum aberration coefficients.
