Raman scattering has been used to study the variation of surface barriers in GaAs due to sulfur passivation in solutions of ammonium sulfide [(NH4)2S] in different alcohols (ethanol, isopropanol, and tert-butanol). It has been found that the surface barrier height and the depletion layer width decrease considerably with the decrease of the dielectric constant of the passivating solution.
-The coherent interaction of femtosecond laser pulses in the pump-probe regime has been experimentally studied in the time domain by monitoring light reflection from a tellurium single crystal. The optical response of the probed medium exhibits periodic variations at a frequency equal to that of the exciting laser radiation. Experimental dependences of the observed "coherent artifact" on the pump/probe intensity ratio, the number of accumulated pulses, and the mutual orientation of the polarization vectors of electromagnetic fields and the crystallographic axes are well described by the proposed phenomenological model.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
