scattering by optical phonons
1Optical fiber — A bundle of optical fibers A TOSLINK fiber optic audio c …
2Optical properties of carbon nanotubes — Contents 1 Terminology 2 Electronic structure of carbon nanotube 3 Van Hove singularities …
3Optical amplifier — An optical amplifier is a device that amplifies an optical signal directly, without the need to first convert it to an electrical signal. An optical amplifier may be thought of as a laser without an optical cavity, or one in which feedback from… …
4Carrier scattering — Defect types include atom vacancies, adatoms, steps, and kinks which occur most frequently at surfaces due to finite material size causing crystal discontinuity. What all types of defects have in common, whether they be surface or bulk, is that… …
5Brillouin scattering — Brillouin scattering, named after Léon Brillouin, occurs when light in a medium (such as air, water or a crystal) interacts with time dependent optical density variations and changes its energy (frequency) and path. The density variations may be… …
6Wide bandgap semiconductors — are semiconductor materials with electronic band gaps larger than one or two electronvolts (eV). The exact threshold of wideness often depends on the application, such as optoelectronic and power devices. Wide bandgap materials are often utilized …
7Electron mobility — This article is about the mobility for electrons and holes in metals and semiconductors. For the general concept, see Electrical mobility. In solid state physics, the electron mobility characterizes how quickly an electron can move through a… …
8Surface phonon — Phonons are collective lattice vibration modes, and surface phonons are those particular modes associated with surfaces; they are an artifact of periodicity, symmetry, and the termination of bulk crystal structure associated with the surface… …
9Phonon — For KDE Software Compilation 4 s multimedia framework, see Phonon (KDE). Normal modes of vibration progression through a crystal. The amplitude of the motion has been exaggerated for ease of viewing; in an actual crystal, it is typically much… …
10Monte Carlo methods for electron transport — The Monte Carlo method for electron transport is a semiclassical Monte Carlo(MC) approach of modeling semiconductor transport. Assuming the carrier motion consists of free flights interrupted by scattering mechanisms, a computer is utilized to… …
