  • Subwavelength light confinement and quantum chaos in micro- and nano-structured metamaterials

    Creator:
    Govyadinov, Alexander A.
    Abstract:
    This dissertation concerns a broad range of unique phenomena related to the light propagation at nano- and micro-scales. To access the nano-domain, we introduce anisotropy-based waveguides with positive- and negative-index modes. These novel structures allow energy propagation in subwavelength regions and, in contrast to surface waves, have the mode structure...

  • Luminescent sulfides and solution-deposited oxide thin films

    Creator:
    Anderson, Jeremy T.
    Abstract:
    Solid state luminescent sulfides are prepared as powders in order to elucidate the relationship between structure and light emission. While the sulfides studied in this dissertation are known phosphors, materials are investigated in a variety of new ways. Elementary properties and structures of MgS are reviewed, and preparation of MgS...

  • Pulsed laser deposition and thin film properties of p-type BaCuSF, BaCuSeF, BaCuTeF and n-type Zn₂In₂O[subscript 5] wide band-gap semiconductors

    Creator:
    Kykyneshi, Robert
    Abstract:
    Thin films of wide band-gap semiconductors are deposited by the pulsed laser deposition method. Optimal deposition parameters for the individual compounds are reported. A family of p-type BaCuQF (Q = S, Se, Te) ceramics with a layered crystalline structure is investigated for active and passive device applications. Epitaxial films of...
