    RECENT ADVANCES IN TERAHERTZ TECHNOLOGY FOR SECURITY AND BIOMEDICAL APPLICATIONS
    (Universitatea de Stat din Tiraspol, 2021) Sirkeli, Vadim
    Terahertz waves have low photon energies (~ 4.1 meV for 1 THz), which is about 1 million times weaker than the energy of X-ray photons. They do not cause any harmful ionization in biological tissues. The terahertz radiation is strongly attenuated by water and is very sensitive to water content. This paper provides current status and recent advances in terahertz technology for security and medical applications. In particular, we report on our designs of THz quantum cascade lasers to identify cancerous tissues and other medical issues.

    EFFECT OF p-NiO INTERLAYER ON INTERNAL QUANTUM EFFICIENCY OF p-GaN/n-ZnO LIGHT-EMITTING DEVICES
    (American Scientific Publishers, 2015) Sirkeli, Vadim; Yilmazoglu, Oktay; Küppers, Franko; Hartnagel, Hans
    We report on numerical investigations of p-GaN/n-ZnO light-emitting devices with p-NiO interlayer, and on LED design optimization which includes bandgap engineering, thickness and doping of constituent layers. The current–voltage dependences of investigated LEDs show a threshold voltage of 3.1 V and 5.4 V for the LED devices without and with presence of p-NiO interlayer, respectively. It is found that p-NiO layer act as electron blocking layer, that lead to the enhance of charge carriers confinement in active region, and to the increasing of internal quantum efficiency (IQE) of LED device up to 0.5%, that in four times higher in compare with that for original p-GaN/n-ZnO LED device.

    EFFECT OF p-NiO AND n-ZnSe INTERLAYERS ON THE EFFICIENCY OF p-GaN/n-ZnO LIGHT-EMITTING DIODE STRUCTURES
    (IOP Publishing Ltd, 2015) Sirkeli, Vadim; Yilmazoglu, Oktay; Küppers, Franko; Hartnagel, Hans
    We report on a numerical study of the characteristics of p-GaN/n-ZnO light-emitting diodes (LEDs) with p-NiO and n-ZnSe interlayers, and on LED design optimization which includes bandgap engineering, thickness and doping of constituent layers. The current-voltage dependences of investigated LEDs show a threshold voltage of 3.1 V, 5.4 V and 5.6 V for LED devices without and with the presence of p-NiO and n-ZnSe interlayers, respectively. It is found that p-NiO, n-ZnSe and n-ZnO interlayers act as an electron blocking layer, active media layer, and electron transport layer, respectively. It is established that the insertion of both p-NiO and n-ZnSe interlayers leads to the enhancement of charge carrier-confinement in the active region and to the significant increase of internal quantum efficiency (IQE) of the LED device up to 82%, which is comparable with IQE values in order to obtain better AlGaN- and InGaN-based LEDs. It is found that the efficiency of LED devices at 100 A cm−2 is equal to 0.024, 0.09 and 16.4% of external quantum efficiency (EQE), 1.3 × 10−4, 1.6 × 10−4, and 6.4 lm W−1 of PE, and 1.3 × 10−4, 2.9 × 10−4, and 12 cd A−1 of CE for p-GaN/n-ZnO, p-GaN/p-NiO/n-ZnO, and p-GaN/p-NiO/n-ZnSe/n-ZnO LED devices, respectively.
