Multifunction interferometry using the electron mobility visibility and mean free path relationship

“…The light intensity( I ) is the electrical field€projected on the photo‐detector, is given by In this work, the electron drift velocity in the studied material (gold) is modulated by the plasmon waves from silicon to graphene as shown in Figure . The driven electron driven mobility is obtained by the driven group velocity injected by the silicon‐graphene plasmonic waves (Pornsuwancharoen et al, , ), which provides the increase in overall electron mobility, therefore the irradiance output at the detector as the function of the recovery arm (OPD, ) of the Michelson interferometer, can be seen in the form of the interference fringe (mobility visibility) by scanning the recovery sensing arm, which is the reference arm. The relationship of the interference fringe in terms of the mobility visibility of the plasmonic interferometer can be written by (Szuatakowski & Palka, ).…”

“…Many works of the interferometers have been employed since the Weiss prototype announced (Shoemaker et al, ), however, there are still some problems to solve, therefore, the searching of the new interferometric systems is continued by the available new materials and detection techniques. Recently, one of the interesting works in plasmonic concept is very promising (Genevet et al, ; Ju et al, ; Yan et al, ; Yeung et al, ), whereby using the integrated layer consists of the attacked silicon‐graphene‐gold layers (Pornsuwancharoen et al, ), in which the micro‐current source could be performed by the light‐electron energy conversion within the nonlinear Panda ring resonator via the whispering gallery mode. The use of graphene material to produce the plasmon wave in the interesting aspect, which can be found in many works (Gumbs, ; Mahigir, Dastmalchi, Shin, Fan, & Veronis, ; Smolyaninov, Hung, & Davis, ; Thomas, Auton, Kundys, Grigorenko, & Kravets, ), especially, with the interferometry applications (Bartoli, ; Gan & Bartoli, ).…”

“…The driven electron driven mobility is obtained by the driven group velocity injected by the silicon-graphene plasmonic waves(Pornsuwancharoen et al, 2017a(Pornsuwancharoen et al, , 2017b, which provides the increase in overall electron mobility, therefore the irradiance output at the detector as the function of the recovery arm (OPD, Dl) of the Michelson interferometer,…”

Electro‐optic conversion circuit incorporating a fiber optic loop for light fidelity up‐down link use

“…[8][9][10][11][12] Moreover, the use of materials such as GaAsInP-P, silicon, graphene, and chalcogenide for waveguides and devices can provide wider applications. [13][14][15][16][17][18] Recently, the use of the stacked layers of silicon-graphene-gold has shown the very interesting results, 19,20 where the conversion between electrical and optical signals can be made as following details. The conversion from light to be electrical signals occurs when light from a laser source is fed into the silicon layer, from which the plasmonic waves are induced on the graphene surface and conducted by the gold layer.…”

Electron Mobility Sensor Scheme-Based on a Mach–Zehnder Interferometer Approach

“…An island of the aluminum, gold or silver can be used for plasmonic device applications within realistic device dimensions of 5-15 nm. The light-electron energy conversion on the plasmonic island has also recently been theoretically investigated by Pornsuwancharoen et al [24,25], in which the selected simulation data were based on realistic device parameters. In this paper, taking advantage of the light-electron energy conversion phenomenon, an innovative sensing transducer on an embedded MZI arm, which can be used for various sensing applications, is discussed.…”
