Physical, chemical, and optical data of SnS layers and light switching frequency dependent photoresponses.

ABSTRACT: In this data article, vertically grown SnS layers were investigated. The growth processes of vertical SnS layers were discussed in our article [1]. This data article provides the chemical analysis using the XPS measurements for the SnS sample grown on a Si wafer. Deposition time varying SnS morphology changes were observed by FESEM. The cross-sectional images were achieved to monitor the SnS layer thickness. Refractive index of the grown SnS film was calculated using the reflectance data. A self-operating photoelectric was realized with structuring of SnS layers on the n-type Si wafer. Transient photoresponses were achieved by tuning the switching frequencies.

Ultrafast optical switching and data encoding on synthesized light fields.

Project description:Modern electronics are founded on switching the electrical signal by radio frequency electromagnetic fields on the nanosecond time scale, limiting the information processing to the gigahertz speed. Recently, optical switches have been demonstrated using terahertz and ultrafast laser pulses to control the electrical signal and enhance the switching speed to the picosecond and a few hundred femtoseconds time scale. Here, we exploit the reflectivity modulation of the fused silica dielectric system in a strong light field to demonstrate the optical switching (ON/OFF) with attosecond time resolution. Moreover, we present the capability of controlling the optical switching signal with complex synthesized fields of ultrashort laser pulses for data binary encoding. This work paves the way for establishing optical switches and light-based electronics with petahertz speeds, several orders of magnitude faster than the current semiconductor-based electronics, opening a new realm in information technology, optical communications, and photonic processor technologies.

Fundamental mechanism for all-optical helicity-dependent switching of magnetization.

Project description:Switching magnetizations with femtosecond circularly polarized lasers may have revolutionary impacts on magnetic data storage and relevant applications. Achievements in ferrimagnetic and ferromagnetic materials of various structures strongly imply a general phenomenon of fundamental atom-laser interaction. Rotating an atom's wave function with the rotating electric field of a circularly polarized laser, I show the quantum mechanics for the atom is equivalent to that in a static electric field of the same magnitude and a tremendous static magnetic field which interacts with the atom in somewhat different ways. When some conditions are satisfied, transitions of atoms in these two crossed effective fields lead to a highly nonequilibrium state with orbital magnetic moments inclining to the effective magnetic field. The switching finally completes after the pulse duration via relaxation.

Multiphysics Modeling of Plasmon-Enhanced All-Optical Helicity-Dependent Switching.

Project description:In this work, we propose a multiphysics approach to simulate all-optical helicity-dependent switching induced by the local hot spots of plasmonic nanostructures. Due to the plasmonic resonance of an array of gold nanodisks, strong electromagnetic fields are generated within the magnetic recording media underneath the gold nanodisks. We construct a multiphysics framework considering the opto-magnetic and opto-thermal effects, and then model the magnetization switching using the Monte Carlo method. Our approach bridges the gap between plasmonic nanostructure design and magnetization switching modeling, allowing for the simulation of helicity-dependent, nanoscale magnetization switching in the presence of localized surface plasmons.

Nanosecond optical switching and control system for data center networks.

Project description:Electrical switching based data center networks have an intrinsic bandwidth bottleneck and, require inefficient and power-consuming multi-tier switching layers to cope with the rapid growing traffic in data centers. With the benefits of ultra-large bandwidth, high-efficient cost and power consumption, switching traffic in the optical domain has been investigated to replace the electrical switches inside data center networks. However, the deployment of nanosecond optical switches remains a challenge due to the lack of corresponding nanosecond switch control, the lack of optical buffers for packet contention, and the requirement of nanosecond clock and data recovery. In this work, a nanosecond optical switching and control system has been experimentally demonstrated to enable an optically switched data center network with 43.4 nanosecond switching and control capability and with packet contention resolution as well as 3.1 nanosecond clock and data recovery.

Ultrafast optical circuit switching for data centers using integrated soliton microcombs.

Project description:Due to the slowdown of Moore's law, it will become increasingly challenging to efficiently scale the network in current data centers utilizing electrical packet switches as data rates grow. Optical circuit switches (OCS) represent an appealing option to overcome this issue by eliminating the need for expensive and power-hungry transceivers and electrical switches in the core of the network. In particular, optical switches based on tunable lasers and arrayed waveguide grating routers are quite promising due to the use of a passive core, which increases fault tolerance and reduces management overhead. Such an OCS-network can offer high bandwidth, low network latency and an energy-efficient and scalable data center network. To support dynamic data center workloads efficiently, however, it is critical to switch between wavelengths at nanosecond (ns) timescales. Here we demonstrate ultrafast OCS based on a microcomb and semiconductor optical amplifiers (SOAs). Using a photonic integrated Si3N4 microcomb, sub-ns (<520 ps) switching along with the 25-Gbps non-return-to-zero (NRZ) and 50-Gbps four-level pulse amplitude modulation (PAM-4) burst mode data transmission is achieved. Further, we use a photonic integrated circuit comprising an Indium phosphide based SOA array and an arrayed waveguide grating to show sub-ns switching (<900 ps) along with 25-Gbps NRZ burst mode transmission providing a path towards a more scalable and energy-efficient wavelength-switched network for data centers in the post Moore's Law era.

Controlling All-Optical Helicity-Dependent Switching in Engineered Rare-Earth Free Synthetic Ferrimagnets.

Project description:All-optical helicity-dependent switching in ferromagnetic layers has revealed an unprecedented route to manipulate magnetic configurations by circularly polarized femtosecond laser pulses. In this work, rare-earth free synthetic ferrimagnetic heterostructures made from two antiferromagnetically exchange coupled ferromagnetic layers are studied. Experimental results, supported by numerical simulations, show that the designed structures enable all-optical switching which is controlled, not only by light helicity, but also by the relative Curie temperature of each ferromagnetic layer. Indeed, through the antiferromagnetic exchange coupling, the layer with the larger Curie temperature determines the final orientation of the other layer and so the synthetic ferrimagnet. For similar Curie temperatures, helicity-independent back switching is observed and the final magnetic configuration is solely determined by the initial magnetic state. This demonstration of electrically-detected, optical control of engineered rare-earth free heterostructures opens a novel route toward practical opto-spintronics.

Self-organization of grafted polyelectrolyte layers via the coupling of chemical equilibrium and physical interactions.

Project description:The competition between chemical equilibrium, for example protonation, and physical interactions determines the molecular organization and functionality of biological and synthetic systems. Charge regulation by displacement of acid-base equilibrium induced by changes in the local environment provides a feedback mechanism that controls the balance between electrostatic, van der Waals, steric interactions and molecular organization. Which strategies do responsive systems follow to globally optimize chemical equilibrium and physical interactions? We address this question by theoretically studying model layers of end-grafted polyacids. These layers spontaneously form self-assembled aggregates, presenting domains of controlled local pH and whose morphologies can be manipulated by the composition of the solution in contact with the film. Charge regulation stabilizes micellar domains over a wide range of pH by reducing the local charge in the aggregate at the cost of chemical free energy and gaining in hydrophobic interactions. This balance determines the boundaries between different aggregate morphologies. We show that a qualitatively new form of organization arises from the coupling between physical interactions and protonation equilibrium. This optimization strategy presents itself with polyelectrolytes coexisting in two different and well-defined protonation states. Our results underline the need of considering the coupling between chemical equilibrium and physical interactions due to their highly nonadditive behavior. The predictions provide guidelines for the creation of responsive polymer layers presenting self-organized patterns with functional properties and they give insights for the understanding of competing interactions in highly inhomogeneous and constrained environments such as those relevant in nanotechnology and those responsible for biological cells function.

Physical origin of the contact frequency in chromosome conformation capture data.

Project description:Physical proximity between each pair of genomic loci in a nucleus is measured as a form of contact frequency in chromosome conformation capture-based methods. Complexity of chromosome structure in interphase can be characterized by measuring a statistical property of physical distance between genomic loci according to genomic separation along single chromatids. To find a relationship between the physical distance and the contact frequency, we propose a polymer model derived from the Langevin equation. The model is derived by considering a structure of a chromosome as a trajectory of a particle, where each consecutive segment in the chromosome corresponds to a transient position in the trajectory over time. Using chromosome conformation capture data, we demonstrate the functional relationship between the two quantities. The physical distances derived from the mean contact frequencies by the model show a good correlation with those from experimental data. From the model, we present that the mean contact frequency curve can be divided into three components that arise from different physical origins and show that the contact frequency is proportional to the contact surface area, not to the volume of segments suggested by the fractal globule model. The model explains both a decaying pattern of the contact frequency and the biphasic relationship between the physical distance and the genomic length.

Frequency-Dependent Sternheimer Linear-Response Formalism for Strongly Coupled Light-Matter Systems.

Project description:The rapid progress in quantum-optical experiments, especially in the field of cavity quantum electrodynamics and nanoplasmonics, allows one to substantially modify and control chemical and physical properties of atoms, molecules, and solids by strongly coupling to the quantized field. Alongside such experimental advances has been the recent development of ab initio approaches such as quantum electrodynamical density-functional theory (QEDFT), which is capable of describing these strongly coupled systems from first principles. To investigate response properties of relatively large systems coupled to a wide range of photon modes, ab initio methods that scale well with system size become relevant. In light of this, we extend the linear-response Sternheimer approach within the framework of QEDFT to efficiently compute excited-state properties of strongly coupled light-matter systems. Using this method, we capture features of strong light-matter coupling both in the dispersion and absorption properties of a molecular system strongly coupled to the modes of a cavity. We exemplify the efficiency of the Sternheimer approach by coupling the matter system to the continuum of an electromagnetic field. We observe changes in the spectral features of the coupled system as Lorentzian line shapes turn into Fano resonances when the molecule interacts strongly with the continuum of modes. This work provides an alternative approach for computing efficiently excited-state properties of large molecular systems interacting with the quantized electromagnetic field.
