We have developed a method to evaluate pumping rates from a system of pumping-well family. For a given system actual pumping rates depend on pump characteristics and the sum of the static head and the dynamic head. The static head is the elevation difference between the natural groundwater level and the outlet of the pipeline that connects all the wells. Major components of the dynamic head are groundwater drawdown in the well and pipeline head loss. The dynamic head and the pump characteristics depend on the pumping rates. Actual pumping rates are determined at the intersections of the system total-head curves and the pump characteristic curves. The Newton-Raphson's method is used to solve the nonlinear simultaneous equations. The method is applied to a hypothetical well family. Impacts of various design and operational parameters on the pumping rates are analyzed.

We investigated the laser pulse-width dependence of dense plasmas confined within the magnetic length of $In_{0.2}Ga_{0.8}As$/GaAs multiple quantum wells under high magnetic fields up to 31 T. To fully fill the Landau levels of effectively zero-dimensional system, we used intense femtosecond (fs) laser pulses to create carrier densities near $10^{13}/cm^2$. The observed photoluminescence showed a characteristic of superfluorescence, above critical magnetic field when being excited by pulses shorter than coherence buildup time.

The origin of the inhomogeneous distribution of photoluminescence (PL) peak wavelength on a commercial 2" GaN wafer for green light emitting diode has been investigated by wide momentum transfer (Q) range x-ray diffraction (XRD) profile of InGaN/GaN multiple quantum wells. Near the GaN (0004) Bragg peak, wide-Q range XRD (${\Delta}Q$ > $1.4{\AA}-1$) was measured along the growth direction. Wide-Q XRD gives precise and direct information of ultra-thin InGaN quantum well structure. Based on the QW structural information, the variation of PL spectra can be explained by the combined effect of temperature gradient and slightly uneven flow of atomic sources during the QW growth. In narrow variations of indium composition and thickness of QW, an effective indium composition can be a good character to match structural data to PL spectra.

Near-field photocurrent experiments were performed for GaAs/AIGaAs MQWs at room temperature. Heavy hole and light hole related peaks are clearly resolved even under extremely low power of near-field excitation. By scanning laterally 2 $\mu\textrm{m}$${\times}$2 $\mu\textrm{m}$ area on the surface, minority carrier diffusion process in the well region was qualitatively studied.

In this paper, we demonstrate the capabilities of 380-nm ultraviolet (UV) light-emitting diodes (LEDs) using metal organic chemical vapor deposition. The epi-structure of these LEDs consists of InGaN/AlGaN multiple quantum wells on a patterned sapphire substrate, and the devices are fabricated using a conventional LED process. The LEDs are packaged with a type of surface mount device with Al-metal. A UV LED can emit light at 383.3 nm, and its maximum output power is 118.4 mW at 350 mA.

Square lattice nano-hole arrays with diameters and periodicities of 200 and 500 nm, respectively, are fabricated on InGaN/GaN blue light emitting diodes (LEDs) using electron-beam lithography and inductively coupled plasma reactive ion etching processes. Cathodoluminescence (CL) investigations show that light emission intensity from the LEDs with the nano-hole arrays is enhanced compared to that from the planar sample. The CL intensity enhancement factor decreases when the nano-holes penetrate into the multiple quantum wells (MQWs) due to the plasma-induced damage and the residues. Wet chemical treatment using KOH solution is found to be an effective method for light extraction from the nano-patterned LEDs, especially, when the nano-holes penetrate into the MQWs. About 4-fold CL intensity enhancement factor is achieved by the KOH treatments after the dry etching for the sample with a 250-nm deep nano-hole array.

The $AlAs_xSb_{1-x}$ step-graded buffer (SGB) layer was grown on the Silicon (Si) substrate to overcome lattice mismatch between Si substrate and $Al_{0.3}Ga_{0.7}As$/GaAs multiple quantum wells (MQWs). The value of root-mean-square (RMS) surface roughness for 5 nm-thick GaAs grown on $AlAs_xSb_{1-x}$ step-graded buffer layer was ~1.7 nm. $Al_{0.3}Ga_{0.7}As$/GaAs MQWs with AlAs/GaAs short period superlattice (SPS) were formed on the $AlAs_xSb_{1-x}$/Si substrate. Photoluminescence (PL) peak at 10 K for the $Al_{0.3}Ga_{0.7}As$/GaAs MQW structure showed relatively low intensity at ~813 nm. The RMS surface roughness of the $Al_{0.3}Ga_{0.7}As$/GaAs MQW structure was ~42.9 nm. The crystal defects were observed on the cross-sectional transmission electron microscope (TEM) images of the $Al_{0.3}Ga_{0.7}As$/GaAs MQW structure. The decrease of PL intensity and increase of RMS surface roughness would be due to the formation of the crystal defects.

We investigated the growth of InGaN/GaN multiple quantum wells (MQWs) structures which emit blue light. The samples were grown in a low pressure metalorganic chemical vapor deposition system. We examined InGaN/GaN MQWs by varying growth temperatures and thicknesses of InGaN well and GaN barrier layers in MQWs. Especially, the thickness of GaN barrier in InGaN/GaN MQWs was found to severely affect the interfacial abruptness between InGaN well and GaN barrier layers. The higher order satellite peaks in the high resolution x-ray diffraction spectra and the high resolution cross sectional transmission electron microscope image of MQW structrues revealed that the interface between InGaN and GaN layers was very abrupt. Room-temperature photoluminescence spectra also showed a blue emission from InGaN/GaN MQWs at the wavelength of 463.5nm with a narrow full width at half maximum of 72.6meV.

The plasmon behaviors in a superlattice of $GaAs/Al_xGa_{1-x}As$ multiple quantum wells with a half-parabolic confining potential due to different dielectric interfaces are studied under magnetic and electric fields perpendicular and parallel to the superlattice axis by using a previously published theoretical framework. From the density-density correlation functions by considering the intrasubband and the inter-subband transitions under the random phase approximation, we calculate the dispersion energies of the surface and the bulk states as functions of the composition of the multiple quantum well structure and of the magnetic field strength and the average electric field strength over the quantum well. The Raman intensities for various magnetic field strengths and average electric field strengths over the quantum well are also obtained as a function of the energy of the incoming light for these states.
