Optical diagnostics play a central role in dynamic compression research. Currently, streak cameras are employed to record temporal and spectroscopic information in single-event experiments, yet are limited in several ways; the tradeoff between time resolution and total record duration is one such limitation. This project solves the limitations that streak cameras impose on dynamic compression experiments while reducing both cost and risk (equipment and labor) by utilizing standard high-speed digitizers and commercial telecommunications equipment. The missing link is the capability to convert the set of experimental (visible/x-ray) wavelengths to the infrared wavelengths used in telecommunications. In this report, we describe the problem we are solving, our approach, our results, and describe the system that was delivered to the customer. The system consists of an 8-channel visible-to-infrared converter with > 2 GHz 3-dB bandwidth.

Selective layer disordering in an intersubband Al0.028Ga0.972N/AlN superlattice using a silicon nitride (SiNx) capping layer is demonstrated. The SiNx capped superlattice exhibits suppressed layer disordering under high-temperature annealing. Additionally, the rate of layer disordering is reduced with increased SiNx thickness. The layer disordering is caused by Si diffusion, and the SiNx layer inhibits vacancy formation at the crystal surface and ultimately, the movement of Al and Ga atoms across the heterointerfaces. Patterning of the SiNx layer results in selective layer disordering, an attractive method to integrate active and passive III-nitride-based intersubband devices.

We present a photonic integrated circuit (PIC) composed of two strongly coupled distributed Bragg reflector (DBR) lasers. This PIC utilizes the dynamics of mutual injection locking to increase the relaxation resonance frequency from 3 GHz to beyond 30 GHz. Mutual injection-locking and external injection-locking operation are compared. © 2011 IEEE.
