1.55 µm High-Speed QDs Lasers for Optical Telecommunication Applications
(2014-12-19)
In this work investigation of the QDs formation and the fabrication of QD based semiconductor lasers for telecom applications are presented. InAs QDs grown on AlGaInAs lattice matched to InP substrates are used to fabricate lasers operating at 1.55 µm, which is the central wavelength for far distance data transmission. This wavelength is used due to its minimum attenuation in standard glass fibers.
The incorporation of QDs in this material system is more complicated in comparison to InAs QDs in the GaAs system. Due ...

Optimal control theory for a unitary operation under dissipative evolution
(2014)
We show that optimizing a quantum gate for an open quantum system requires the time evolution of only three states irrespective of the dimension of Hilbert space. This represents a significant reduction in computational resources compared to the complete basis of Liouville space that is commonly believed necessary for this task. The reduction is based on two observations: the target is not a general dynamical map but a unitary operation; and the time evolution of two properly chosen states is sufficient to distinguish ...

Loss of wobble uridine modification in tRNA anticodons interferes with TOR pathway signaling
(2014)
Previous work in yeast has suggested that modification of tRNAs, in particular uridine bases in the anticodon wobble position (U34), is linked to TOR (target of rapamycin) signaling. Hence, U34 modification mutants were found to be hypersensitive to TOR inhibition by rapamycin. To study whether this involves inappropriate TOR signaling, we examined interaction between mutations in TOR pathway genes (tip41Δ, sap190Δ, ppm1Δ, rrd1Δ) and U34 modification defects (elp3Δ, kti12Δ, urm1Δ, ncs2Δ) and found the rapamycin ...

Elimination in Operator Algebras
(2014-08-08)
A large class of special functions are solutions of systems of linear difference and differential equations with polynomial coefficients. For a given function, these equations considered as operator polynomials generate a left ideal in a noncommutative algebra called Ore algebra. This ideal with finitely many conditions characterizes the function uniquely so that Gröbner basis techniques can be applied.
Many problems related to special functions which can be described by such ideals can be solved by performing ...

Controlling the transport of an ion: classical and quantum mechanical solutions
(IOP, 2014)
The accurate transport of an ion over macroscopic distances represents a challenging control problem due to the different length and time scales that enter and the experimental limitations on the controls that need to be accounted for. Here, we investigate the performance of different control techniques for ion transport in state-of-the-art segmented miniaturized ion traps. We employ numerical optimization of classical trajectories and quantum wavepacket propagation as well as analytical solutions derived from invariant ...

Electronic origin of bond softening and hardening in femtosecond-laser-excited magnesium
(IOP, 2014)
Many ultrafast structural phenomena in solids at high fluences are related to the hardening or softening of particular lattice vibrations at lower fluences. In this paper we relate femtosecond-laser-induced phonon frequency changes to changes in the electronic density of states, which need to be evaluated only in the electronic ground state, following phonon displacement patterns. We illustrate this relationship for a particular lattice vibration of magnesium, for which we—surprisingly—find that there is both softening ...

Domänenwandwiderstandseffekt in künstlich erstellten Domänenwänden nach Ionenbeschuss von magnetischen Zweischichtsystemen
(2014-02-25)
Im Rahmen dieser Arbeit wurden magnetische Zweischichtsysteme mit Exchange-Bias-Effekt und künstlichen lateralen Domänenstrukturen auf den Domänenwandwiderstand (DWR) untersucht. Die Erzeugung dieser Domänenmuster erfolgte über Ion Bombardment induced Magnetic Patterning (IBMP), d.h. 10 keV Helium-Ionenbeschuss durch Schattenmasken auf der Probenoberfläche. Mithilfe eines externen Magnetfelds können anschließend die Domänenwände gezielt ein- und ausgeschaltet werden. Zur Untersuchung des DWR-Effekts müssen einige ...
