  • We have considered optical nonlinearities of coupled quantum dots theoretically, where an exciton dipole-dipole interaction is mediated between the adjacent large and small quantum dots. For increasing a pump pulse area in resonance with the large quantum dot exciton the induced nonlinear refractive index of the small quantum dot exciton has been obtained. As the exciton dipole-dipole interaction depends on the relative orientation of two exciton dipoles, the optical nonlinearities for the directions parallel and perpendicular to the coupling axis of the two quantum dots are compared. The directional imbalance of optical nonlinearities in coupled quantum dots can be utilized for a polarization phase modulator by controlling a pump pulse area and propagation length.

  • We have successfully manufactured high-quality top-contact organic thin-film transistors using inkjet technologies with sub-femtoliter droplet volume. Silver fine lines were directly patterned by inkjet on pentacene channel layers. The minimum width of silver lines was $1{\mu}m$ with without the need for pre-patterning or surface pretreatments. The mobility was $0.3\;cm^2/Vs$.

  • The GaAs semiconductor whispering gallery modes, produced in the peripheral Rayleigh band region of W/sub Rayleigh/ = (${\Phi}$/2)( 1-n/sub eff/n), exhibit novel properties of ultralow thresholds open to nano-ampere regime associated with photonic quantum ring (PQR) production (Fig 1 (a)). The PQR phenomena are associated with a photonic field-driven phase transition of quantum well(QW)-to-quantum wire (QWR) and hence the photonic (non-de Broglie) quantum corral effects, on the Rayleigh cavity confined carriers in dynamic steady state, occur as schematically shown in Fig 1.

  • Quantum technology is undergoing a revolution. Theoretically, strange phenomena of quantum mechanics, such as superposition and entanglement, can enable high-performance computing, unconditionally secure communication, and high-precision sensing. Such theoretical possibilities have been examined in the last few decades. The goal now is to apply these quantum advantages to daily life. Europe, where quantum mechanics was born a 100 years ago, is struggling to be placed at the front of this quantum revolution. Thus, the European Commission has decided to invest 1 billion EUR over 10 years and has initiated the ramp-up phase with 20 projects in the fields of communication, simulation, sensing and metrology, computing, and fundamental science. This program, approved by the European Commission, is called the "Quantum Technology Flagship" program. Its first objective is to consolidate and expand European scientific leadership and excellence in quantum research. Its second objective is to kick-start a competitive European industry in quantum technology and develop future global industrial leaders. Its final objective is to make Europe a dynamic and attractive region for innovative and collaborative research and business in quantum technology. This program also trains next-generation quantum engineers to achieve a world-leading position in quantum technology. However, the most important principle of this program is to realize quantum technology and introduce it to the market. To this end, the program emphasizes that academic institutes and industries in Europe have to collaborate to research and develop quantum technology. They believe that without commercialization, no technology can be developed to its full potential. In this study, we review the strategy of the Quantum Europe Flagship program and the 20 projects of the ramp-up phase.

  • Fractional quantum Hall Effect (FQSH) is one of most fundamental issues in condensed matter physics, and the Topological insulator becomes its prominent applications. This article reviews the general frameworks of these development and the physical properties. FQSH states and topological insulators are supposed to be topologically invariant under the minor change of geometrical shape or internal impurities. The phase transitions involved in this phenomena are known not to be explained in terms of symmetry breaking or Landau-Ginsburg theory. The new type of phase transitions related to topological invariants has acquired new name - topological phase transition. The intuitive concepts and the other area having same type of phase transitions are discussed.

  • As the temperature of liquid under negative pressure approaches the absolute zero, the nucleation process due to thermal fluctuations hardly occurs. Instead of this mechanism, quantum fluctuations may lead the formation of nucleus for new phase in metastable state. In this study, the thermal as well as quantum nucleation bubble in liquid helium under negative pressure was investigated theoretically. The energy barrier against nucleation was estimated by molecular interaction due to the Londom dispersion force. It is shown that the phase transition from liquid to vapor in is possible due to the quantum tunneling below 0.2 K for Helium-4 and 0.1 K for Helium-3, at negative pressures close to the ideal tensile strength at which every liquid molecules become bubbles simultaneously.

  • 1550nm의 파장대를 이용하는 자동 위상보정 양자암호 시스템을 소개한다. 양자키 분배 시스템에서 자동위상보정된 양자키 분배를 위한 메인 컨트롤보드와 phase modulator를 제어할 수 있는 보드를 제작하였고, 단일광자검출기를 위한 dark count당 photon count, quantum key distribution rate($R_{sift}$)와 quantum bit error rate(QBER)값을 측정하였다. 이 시스템은 25km의 광섬유상에서 quantum bit error rate(QBER) 3.5%의 결과값을 얻었고, 이는 상용화가 가능할 것으로 예상된다.

  • 양자우물의 두께가 다른 4종류의 $In_xGa_{1-x}N(x=0.15)/GaN$ 다중 양자우물 구조의 PL 스펙트럼을 분석하여 InGaN에서의 결정상 분리 현상을 조사하였다. 우물폭이 1.5 nm에서 6.0 nm로 증가함에 따라, PL스펙트럼은 비대칭성이 점점 강해지는 이중 피크의 특성을 나타내었다. 곡선맞춤을 수행하여 분리한 2개의 피크를 분석하여, InGaN 우물에서의 부준위 천이에 해당하는 고에너지 피크의 세기는 줄어드는 반면, 상분리에 의하여 생성된 저에너지 피크의 강도는 점점 강해짐을 볼 수 있었다. 이것은 InGaN 우물에는 In 조성이 다소 다른 2개의 결정상이 존재하여, 우물폭 증가와 함께 InN 상분리가 강해지면서 In 조성이 큰(In-rich) InGaN 결정상이 상대적으로 증대됨을 보여 주는 결과로 해석된다. 우물 두께가 6.0 nm인 시료에서는 저에너지 영역(${\sim}2.0eV$)에서 또 하나의 피크이 관측되었는데, 이것은 GaN에서 잘 알려져 있는 결함에 기인한 황색준위(YB)와 그 근원이 같은 것으로, InN의 상분리가 임계값 이상으로 발달하여 생성된 결함과 관련된 준위인 것으로 해석된다.

  • In this work, we report basic performance test results of a lab-scale three phase alternative current (AC) arc plasma torch system for plasma gas reforming applications. The suggested system primarily consists of three graphite electrodes inclined at 12.5° to the central axis, a 𝞥 150 mm cylindrical gas path and a three phase-60 Hz AC power supply. At air flow rate of 50 Lpm and arc currents of 100-175 A, test results revealed that plasma resistances were decreasing from 1.08 Ω to 0.53 Ω with the increase of plasma power from 9.3 kW to 13.8 kW, causing the decrease of power factor and increase of the line voltages. However, the injected air can be heated quickly up to the temperatures of >1,200℃ when injecting AC arc plasma powers of >10 kW.
