Eigenstate statistics and optical properties of one-dimensional disordered photonic crystals (2005)
Journal Article
Kaliteevski, M., Nikolaev, V., & Abram, R. (2005). Eigenstate statistics and optical properties of one-dimensional disordered photonic crystals. Physics of the Solid State, 47(10), 1948-1957. https://doi.org/10.1134/1.2087751

Optical eigenstates in one-dimensional disordered photonic crystals were studied. The threshold disorder level was established below which the probability of appearance of an eigenstate at the photonic bandgap center is negligible. The threshold is r...

Self-consistent 2-D Monte Carlo simulations of InSb APD (2005)
Journal Article

Self-consistent Monte Carlo simulations are used to study the low noise and high gain potential of InSb avalanche photodiodes. It is found that for an electron-initiated avalanche, excess noise factors well below the minimum McIntyre value persist up...
