OISE-0530220 (Junichiro Kono, William Marsh Rice University)PIRE: U.S.-Japan Cooperative Research and Education: Ultrafast and Nonlinear Optics in 6.1-Angstrom SemiconductorsKono This Partnership for International Research and Education, led by Junichiro Kono of Rice University, investigates the ultrafast and nonlinear optical properties of quantum structures based on the 6.1-angstrom (A) III-V semiconductors (InAs, GaSb, AlSb). These semiconductors are nearly lattice-matched (with lattice constant ~ 6.1 A) and can be epitaxially grown to form heterostructures. Though they possess promising properties for application in next-generation devices, there has been little exploration of their optical properties, especially in the time domain and at high laser intensities. Various optical spectroscopic methods will be used to study charge and spin dynamics. Such studies are not only expected to increase understanding of the states and dynamics of interacting electrons but also to provide new insight into which structures are optimum for specific applications. The project establishes a long-term partnership between Rice University, University of Florida and Texas A&M University in the U.S. and Osaka Institute of Technology and Tokyo Institute of Technology in Japan. The international partnership focuses on the complementary research strengths of each side, with Japanese collaborators providing unique materials growth and processing capabilities. The project also involves a tiered program of education activities targeting students at different stages of their academic careers to attract young people to the emerging areas of electrical engineering and the physical sciences, especially nanotechnology. The cornerstone of the education activities will be a ten-week study and research internship program in Japan for graduate and undergraduate students from U.S. universities. The annual symposium INNOVATE US-Nanotechnology will reinforce the benefits of the Japan research internships for students on returning to the U.S. The annual international symposium INNOVATE Asia will provide an additional opportunity for students to examine the relationship between technology and globalization in a comparative perspective.

OISE-0530220 (Junichiro Kono, William Marsh Rice University)PIRE: U.S.-Japan Cooperative Research and Education: Ultrafast and Nonlinear Optics in 6.1-Angstrom SemiconductorsKono This Partnership for International Research and Education, led by Junichiro Kono of Rice University, investigates the ultrafast and nonlinear optical properties of quantum structures based on the 6.1-angstrom (A) III-V半导体（INAS，GASB，ALSB）。这些半导体几乎是晶格匹配的（具有晶格常数〜6.1 a），并且可以在形成异质结构的情况下生长。尽管它们具有在下一代设备中应用的有希望的属性，但几乎没有探索其光学特性，尤其是在时域和高激光强度下。各种光谱方法将用于研究电荷和自旋动力学。这种研究不仅预计会增加对相互作用电子的状态和动态的理解，而且还提供了新的见解，以了解哪些结构最适合特定应用。该项目在美国莱斯大学，佛罗里达大学和德克萨斯A＆M大学以及大阪技术学院和日本东京理工学院之间建立了长期合作伙伴关系。国际合作伙伴关系着重于双方的互补研究优势，日本合作者提供了独特的材料增长和处理能力。该项目还涉及一项针对学术职业不同阶段的学生的教育活动计划，以吸引年轻人进入电气工程和物理科学的新兴领域，尤其是纳米技术。教育活动的基石将是日本为期十周的研究和研究实习计划，针对来自美国大学的研究生和本科生。年度研讨会创新的美国纳米技术将增强日本研究实习的好处，以返回美国，年度国际研讨会创新亚洲将为学生提供更多机会，以比较的角度研究技术与全球化之间的关系。
