Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

This work shows the characterization and optimization of the optical excitation conditions for low-temperature-grown gallium arsenide (LT-GaAs) terahertz (THz) emitters, given attention to the numerical aperture (NA) of the microscope objective and its defocusing distance. Our pump-probe transmission and THz emission analyses show that low-NA (0.35) and high-NA (0.65) microscope objectives photoexcite charge carriers within the LT-GaAs epilayer and semi-insulating GaAs (SI-GaAs) substrate. However, only the high-NA (0.65) microscope objective can localize the charge carriers in the LT-GaAs epilayer. The defocusing distance for this objective can then be varied to fully optimize the THz bandwidth and dynamic range.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
