    Abstract: The invention relates to a nonlinear optical device comprising a film structure (2) coated on a substrate (1) without interposition of adhesive. According to the invention the device is characterised in that the film structure comprises a modulated intercalation structure consisting of a layer of semi-conductor material and a layer of organic material, the layers having different energy gaps and the modulated structure being a super lattice structure. The invention also relates to a method of manufacturing a nonlinear optical device comprising dissolving an organic material in a solvent, and spin coating the solution onto a substrate and thereby forming an organic material film with one of its crystal axes oriented in the direction normal to the substrate, the film having a modulated structure of the two types of layers alternately intercalated and differing in energy gap in the direction.

    Abstract: Disclosed is a new method suitable for making highly integrated quantum wire arrays, quantum dot arrays in a single crystal compound semiconductor and FETs of less than 0.1 micron gate length. This makes it possible to construct a high-performance electronic device with high speed and low power consumption, using a combination of low-temperature-growth molecular beam epitaxy (LTG-MBE) and focused ion beam (FIB) implantation. The compound semiconductor (GaAs) epitaxial layers, which are made by LTG-MBE, are used as targets of Ga FIB implantation to make Ga wire or dot arrays. Precipitation of arsenic microcrystals, which are initially embedded in a single crystal GaAs layer and act as Schottky barriers, are typically observed in an LTG GaAs layer. A thermal annealing process, after implantation, changes the arsenic microcrystals to GaAs crystals if the arsenic microcrystals are in the region in which the Ga ions are implanted. A wire-like shape free of As microcrystals then acts as a quantum wire for electrons or holes whereas a dot-like shape free of As microcrystals acts as a quantum dot. The co-existence of Ga ions and dopant ions, which provides conductivity type carriers opposite to the conductivity type of the majority carriers of a channel region of an FET, provides the fabrication of very narrow junction gate region for any FET.

    Abstract: The present invention is the use of coupled quantum wells (122, 126) in the active region of a semiconductor laser (30) to modulate the frequency and amplitude of the light output (50) of the laser (30). In a particular embodiment of the present invention the coupled quantum wells (122, 126) are contained in a graded index (115, 130) of refraction semiconductor double heterostructure laser (30). The active region (120) of this tunable laser (30) consists of two quantum wells (126, 122) having a width of approximately 5 nm or less which are separated by a barrier layer (124) having a width of approximately 2 nm or less. The quantum well material is intrinsic GaAs and the barrier layer is AlxGa1-xAs wherein x=.23. The active region (120) is surrounded by the double heterostructure in which one side is doped p-type and the second side is doped n-type. The resulting laser (30) is a p-i-n type structure. A reverse bias with respect to the flat band voltage of the p-i-n structure is applied across the p-i-n structure which modulates both the frequency and the intensity of the laser output (50). The tunable laser (30) is pumped with a variety of conventional means, including both electrical and optical (40) pumping. The modulation of the wavelength is approximately linear over a 1.5 volt operating range. A tunable laser (30), such as the present invention, having an output wavelength modulated by an electric field is useful in the field of optical communications and computing.

    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To obtain an excellent color rendering property (color reproducibility) and high response characteristic with a high efficiency by time-serially illuminating liquid crystals by using cold cathode discharge tubes coated with phosphors of red, green and blue. SOLUTION: The cold cathode discharge tubes 25, 26, 27 of red, green and blue having excellent high-speed transient characteristics are used. A screen corresponding to data of red is first written to the liquid crystal screen over the entire part of the display device. The red cold cathode discharge tube 25 lights after the end of the writing and puts out after the red screen lasts for a specified time. The screen corresponding to data of green is then written to the liquid crystal screen. The green cold cathode discharge tube 26 lights after the completion. The writing and the illumination are thereafter repeated in time serially with the blue, red and green. (SrMg)3 (PO4 )2 : Sn is used for the red regions, Y3 Al3 Ga2 O12 : Ce for the green regions and Y2 SiO5 : Ce for the blue regions as the phosphors to be applied on the cold cathode discharge tubes 25, 26, 27.

    Abstract: PURPOSE:To provide a floating amount measuring apparatus for head which exhibits high sensitivity through simple structure. CONSTITUTION:Light projected from a white light source 25 is introduced into a gap between a disc 23 and a head 21 where multiple reflection takes place. Light reflected on an opaque body, out of the disc 23 and the head 21, is polarized into at least three wavelength regions and introduced to different optical detecting means 35, 36, 37. An estimating unit 38 estimates floating amount of head from an output of the optical detecting means according to the method of least squares based on a function between disc head gap lengths predetermined for respective wavelength regions and the intensity of reflected light detected through the optical detecting means. Calculation is carried out in real time according to table lookup system or follow-up control system.
