Hot-electrons have been attracting attention for applications in photodetectors and photocatalysts due to their high energy. We report the hot-electron emission enhancement by an aluminum disk-hole array structure. The coupling effect by the structure further enhances the electric field enhancement effect, which improves efficiency electron emission.

This paper describes recent progress of multi-tap time-resolved CMOS image sensors and their applications. Using multiple signal taps in each pixel and designing it for high-speed photo carrier response, various CMOS-based highly-time-resolved imaging systems with advanced performance and functions have been developed. Applications include time-of-flight range imaging and biomedical, imaging such as time-resolved near infrared spectroscopy, fluorescence lifetime imaging, simultaneous multiple-focus microscopy and contact-less heart-rate variability measurements.

We show the design, fabrication, and characterization of transverse electric mode semiconductor optical isolators with Co. The device lengths are shorter than those of typical laser diodes. Transmitted light intensity altered with clear polarization dependence, which can be applied in a wide range of applications in photonic integrated circuits.

Thin films using ZnO and Al2O3 were fabricated by ALD. The crystallinity, surface roughness, spatial uniformity of the emission intensity and luminescence intensity were evaluated. As a result, the crystallinity, surface roughness, and spatial uniformity of the emission intensity improved as the Al2O3 layer was increased, but luminescence intensity decreased.

We experimentally demonstrated the plasmonic color modulation by dynamically controlling the interparticle distance of the crystalline Ag nanocube monolayer on the stretchable substrate. The transmitted light color modulated from magenta, orange to yellow by stretching of the substrate under random polarization incidence.

We have developed a simple fabrication process of low-insertion-loss vertical-taper structures which can locally optimize the Si thickness of silicon-photonic devices. Fabricated vertical-taper structures realized the conversion of Si-waveguide thickness from 400 nm to 220 nm, whose insertion loss was measured to be less than 0.5 dB.

In the proposed work, we fabricated a liquid crystal cladding waveguide-based variable optical attenuator. The waveguide is realized using a negative photoresist (AZ15nXT) core on indium tin oxide (ITO) coated glass substrates. The device is characterized at two wavelengths, 633 nm and 520 nm. The transverse magnetic (TM) modes get attenuated on the application of the electric field across the waveguide. The maximum extinction ratio achieved is 6.85 dB.
