In our pursuit of high-power terahertz (THz) wave generation, we propose innovative edge-terminated single-drift region (SDR) multi-quantum well (MQW) impact avalanche transit time (IMPATT) structures based on the AlGaN/GaN/AlGaN material system, with a fixed aluminum mole fraction of = 0.3. Two distinct MQW diode configurations, namely junction-based and Schottky barrier diode structures, were investigated for their THz potential.

FDTD Simulations for Rhodium and Platinum Nanoparticles for UV Plasmonics.

The article describes the results of finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) mathematical modeling of electromagnetic fields distortion near the surfaces of two transition metals: rhodium (Rh) and platinum (Pt) on glass (SiO) substrates.
