  • In this paper, we describe a self-aligned fabrication method for a nano-patterned bottom electrode using flood exposure from the backside. Misalignments between layers could cause the final devices to fail after the fabrication of the nano-scale bottom electrodes. A self-alignment was exploited to embed the bottom electrode inside the glass substrate. Aluminum patterns act as a dry etching mask to fabricate glass trenches as well as a self-aligned photomask during the flood exposure from the backside. The patterned photoresist (PR) has a negative sidewall slope using the flood exposure. The sidewall slopes of the glass trench and the patterned PR were $54.00^{\circ}$ and $63.47^{\circ}$, respectively. The negative sidewall enables an embedment of a gold layer inside $0.7{\mu}m$ wide glass trenches. Gold residues on the trench edges were removed by the additional flood exposure with wet etching. The sidewall slopes of the patterned PR are related to the slopes of the glass trenches. Nano-scale bottom electrodes inside the glass trenches will be used in beam resonators operating at high resonant frequencies.

  • We have investigated the lasing characteristics of GaAs-based 1300 nm wavelength region InAs Quantum Dot Laser Diode grown by Migration Enhanced Molecular Beam Epitaxy. Under a pulsed and CW operation, we observed the state switching of lasing wavelength from ground state (1302 nm) to excited state (1206 nm) due to the gain saturation of ground state. Under a pulsed operation, $J_{th}=92A/cm^2$, $\lambda_L=1311\;nm$ and under a CW operation, $J_{th}=247A/cm^2$, $\lambda_L=1320\;nm$.

  • Epoxy resin is widely used as aerospace, automobile, construction and electronics due to their good mechanical and electrical properties and environmental advantages. However, the inherent flammability of epoxy resin has limited its application in some field where good flame retardancy is required. Nano clay can enhance the properties of polymers such as flames retardancy and thermal stability. In this study, we have investigated the nanoclay filled epoxy composite, which has good flame retardancy while maintaining high mechanical properties. The cured epoxy resins were obtained using an electron beam curing process. The nano clays were dispersed in epoxy acrylate solution and mechanically stirred. The prepared mixtures were irradiated using an electron beam accelerator. The composites were characterized by gel content and thermal/mechanical properties. Moreover, the flammability of the composite was evaluated by limited oxygen index (LOI). The flame retardancy of nano clay filled epoxy composite was evidently improved.

  • The fabrication of nanopore membrane by deposition of Al2O3 film using electron-beam evaporation, which is fast, cost-effective, and negligible dependency on substance material, is investigated for potential applications in water purification and sensors. The decreased nanopore diameter owing to increased wall thickness is observed when Al2O3 film is deposited on anodic aluminum oxide membrane at higher deposition rate, although the evaporation process is generally known to induce a directional film deposition leading to the negligible change of pore diameter and wall thickness. This behavior can be attributed to the collision of evaporated Al2O3 particles by the decreased mean free path at higher deposition rate condition, resulting in the accumulation of Al2O3 materials on both the surface and the edge of the wall. The reduction of nanopore diameter by Al2O3 film deposition can be applied to the nanopore membrane fabrication with sub-100 nm pore diameter.

  • The magnetotransport properties at room temperature of the 250-nm-thick MnAs(-1100) film grown on GaAs(001) substrate by molecular beam epitaxy was investigated. The results measured with various magnetic field directions were reported. They show the negative magnetoresistive effect for all field directions. The difference in the magnetoresistance curves for different field directions is in agreement with the magnetic anisotropy of the film.

  • The application of focused ion beam (FIB) technology in micro/nano machining has become increasingly popular. Its usage in micro/nano machining has advantages over contemporary photolithography or other micro/nano machining technologies such as small feature resolution, the ability to process without masks and being accommodating for a variety of materials and geometries This paper focus to apply the sputtering technology accumulated by experiments to 3d structure fabrication with high resolution. Therefore some verifications and discussions of the characteristics of FIB sputtering results according to focal length were described in this paper. And we suggested the definition of rectangular pattern profile and made the verifications of sputtering results based on definition of it.
