  • NANOSCALE THERMOMETRY
    Publication number: 20230266174
    Abstract: A nanoscale temperature detector including a diamond sensing probe with a transverse dimension of at least 200 nanometres and a sensing tip-having a curvature radius of less than 100 nanometres, less than 10 nanometres or less than 1 nanometre, and a plurality of colour centres, whose emission count rate show temperature-sensitive features. The diamond sensing probe has a transverse dimension of at least 200 nanometres and is connected to a to a detector system by means of a mounting structure. A thermal isolation barrier thermally decouples the sensing probe from the detector system.

  • Terahertz wave emission laser device with a perforated structure
    Patent number: 8885682
    Abstract: A laser device for emitting THz waves includes a heterostructure with a substantially cylindrical shape including a first layer in an optically nonlinear semiconductor material including emitters to emit in two whispering gallery modes that are confined in the first layer and enabling the generation within the first layer of radiation in an electromagnetic THz whispering gallery mode, a second and a third layer in a semiconductor material each presenting an optical index that is smaller than the index of the material used for the first layer and a metal layer situated at one end of the heterostructure. The heterostructure includes in its center a hole with a substantially cylindrical shape extending over the entire height of the heterostructure.
