    Notes: The dielectric response functions in the valence bands and in the conduction band of heavily doped zincblende semiconductors have been evaluated using the self-consistent field method and incorporating the finite lifetime of particles in the relaxation time approximation. Scattering rates of injected electrons are calculated with the Born approximation in the dielectric response function formalism at finite temperature. The finite particle lifetime introduces significant modifications to the spectral density function {Im[−1/ε(q,ω)]} at small q, where collective excitations (i.e., coupled phonon-plasmon modes) are heavily damped due to collisions. However, these modifications are small at large q. At the same time, the scattering rates of injected electrons are strongly affected by the temperature dependence of these effects, which are particularly significant for p-type semiconductors.

    Notes: In this paper, the commonly used but idealistic formulation of quantized optical-phonon modes for a heterostructure system with only two heterojunctions (i.e., single quantum-well structures) is extended to the more realistic case of multiheterointerface structures. By applying the macroscopic dielectric continuum approach, dispersion relations and interaction Hamiltonians for interface-phonon modes are derived for a double-barrier structure and scattering rates based on these results are used to determine the range of practical validity of the idealistic model using interaction Hamiltonians appropriate for single quantum wells with infinite barrier widths. It is found that when the dimensions of the structures are larger than approximately 30 A(ring), this simplified description can be applied to multiheterointerface structures in general with reasonable accuracy.

    Notes: The anharmonic decay of longitudinal-optical (LO) phonons in zinc-blende semiconductors has been studied. Based on an approach in which the anharmonic crystal potential is estimated using the theory of elasticity, the lifetime of LO phonons via emission of two acoustic phonons is calculated as a function of lattice temperature and phonon wave vector. Application of this model to bulk GaAs shows an excellent agreement with available experimental data. Since the parameters employed in the model can be obtained experimentally, the approach provides a useful tool to investigate LO-phonon lifetimes in semiconductors.

    Notes: Based on a simplified analysis of perfectly conducting metals, it has been suggested qualitatively that establishing metal-semiconductor interfaces at the heterojunctions of polar semiconductor quantum wells introduces a set of boundary conditions that dramatically reduces or eliminates unwanted carrier energy loss caused by interactions with interface longitudinal-optical (LO) phonon modes. In this article, it is theoretically demonstrated that comparable reductions in LO phonon scattering strengths may be achieved for metal-semiconductor structures with metal having realistic conductivities and Thomas–Fermi screening lengths.

    Notes: A theoretical study of the optical properties of GaAs/AlAs quantum well structures in the presence of an electric field is presented. In the first part of the article, interband transitions from the valence band to the conduction band are studied near the type-I to type-II transition point. In the second part, the effect of the electric field on intersubband transitions within the conduction band is considered. The band structure is calculated using a second-nearest-neighbor empirical sp3 tight binding method including spin–orbit effects. Interband and intersubband transition energies, optical matrix elements, and absorption coefficients are given as functions of the electric field. It is shown that the optical properties of these structures can be modified significantly with field near the anticrossing point. © 1996 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Acoustic phonon modes in isotropic cubic media are derived for a number of quantum-wire and quantum-dot geometries of significant interest in nanoelectronics and optoelectronics. In each case, the mode amplitude is determined by requiring that the mode energy be given by that of the properly quantized phonon. For the case of cylindrical quantum wires and quantum dots with rectangular faces, the Hamiltonians for the deformation potential interactions are derived. These quantized acoustic modes and the associated deformation potential Hamiltonians provide a basis for modeling carrier-acoustic-phonon interactions in a variety of mesoscopic devices. Our new results supplement previous treatments of related piezoelectric effects in cylindrical quantum wires.

    Notes: Strain effects on optical gain in hexagonal bulk GaN are calculated and explained in terms of the change in the effective hexagonal crystal field component. Qualitatively, even unstrained wurtzite structures correspond to cubic crystals with a proper biaxial stress applied. Such biaxial stress results in effective tensile deformation along the c axis ([111] direction in cubic crystals) and compressive strain in the perpendicular plane. Therefore, the light mode with a polarization vector parallel to the c axis is suppressed, while the mode with a perpendicular polarization is enhanced in wurtzite structures. Thus, compared to cubic structures with similar material parameters, a strong optical anisotropy of wurtzites results in enhanced gain for certain light polarizations, which make wurtzite structures superior for lower-threshold lasing. These qualitative arguments are illustrated by numerical calculations of optical gain in biaxially strained wurtzite GaN, based on a 6×6 envelope-function Hamiltonian. © 1997 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Monte Carlo simulations have been used to study the spatial scales of electron ballistic transport in GaN. The large optical phonon energy (92 meV) and the large intervalley energy separation between the Γ and satellite conduction band valleys (≥1.5 eV) suggest an increasing role for ballistic electron effects in GaN, especially when compared with most III–V semiconductors such as GaAs. However, the concomitant high polar optical phonon scattering rate in GaN tends to diminish the desirable electron transport properties. The relationships between these two factors have been studied for the range of electric fields up to 140 kV/cm and lattice temperatures between 300 and 600 K. We demonstrate that in most cases electrons in GaN lose their directed average velocity over distances of only 100−200 Å, and ballistic transport occurs only over such short distances. The main cause for the small spatial scales of ballistic transport in GaN is the strong electron–optical phonon coupling which results in rapid relaxation of the directed electron velocity.© 1997 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: 1 To investigate anti-inflammatory activity of organic germanium, we measured the effect of germanium-concentrated yeast on arachidonic acid release, prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) production, histamine release, and intracellular H2O2 or hydroperoxide generation in RBL 2H3 cells, and carrageenan-induced paw oedema in rats. 2 Germanium-concentrated yeast dose-dependently inhibited carrageenan-induced paw oedema, suggesting that germanium-concentrated yeast has anti-inflammatory activity in acute inflammation. 3 Germanium-concentrated yeast significantly inhibited melittin-induced arachidonic acid release and PGE2 production in RBL 2H3 cells. 4 Germanium-concentrated yeast did not affect melittin-induced histamine release and silica-induced intracellular H2O2 or hydroperoxide generation in RBL 2H3 cells. 5 These results suggest that anti-inflammatory activity of germanium-concentrated yeast appears partly to be related to the inhibition of arachidonic acid release and PGE2 production in RBL 2H3 cells.
