  • The impacts of ENSO and IOD on the MSL of the Arabian gulf and the Arabian Sea by using satellite altimetry data
    Atyaf Mohammed Abdul Mutalib, Sabah M. M. Ameen, and Ali B. Mahmood

    Institute of Research and Community Services Diponegoro University (LPPM UNDIP)
    The main objective for the current research is to determine the linear trends of the mean sea level (MSL) resulting from the influence of the Southern Oscillation of El Niño (ENSO) and the Indian Ocean dipole (IOD), which have increased in recent times due to increased global warming using satellite altimetry of MSL data. Statistical time series technique has been used. The standard ordinary univariate and bivariate linear regression method as well as Pearson correlation were used.  Linear trends for the positive phase of IOD were detected on mean sea level while no linear trends of ENSO were detected in the Arabian Gulf. On the other side, linear trends of the negative phases of IOD and ENSO were detected on mean sea level in the Arabian Sea over the period 1993-2013. It is most important for climate research to provide accurate predictions of sea level rise in the coming years and plan the activities to lessen the disasters before they happen.

  • Plasmonic Quantum Dot Nanocavity Laser: Hybrid Modes
    Jamal N. Jabir, S. M. M. Ameen, and Amin Habbeb Al-Khursan

    Springer Science and Business Media LLC
    The hybrid modes in the plasmonic quantum dot (QD) laser are modeled using the Marctili method. The model is then used to study the mode characteristics. The modes are going to cutoff point at zero propagation constant, while it goes to surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) mode at higher photon energy. This behavior was different from that of waveguide modes shown in the dielectric waveguide. At plasmon resonance, hybrid mode is exactly one mode: surface plasmon polariton mode (perfect electric conductor).


  • Modeling of dielectric function in plasmonic quantum dot nanolaser
    Jamal N. Jabir, S. M. M. Ameen, and Amin Habbeb Al-Khursan

    Springer Science and Business Media LLC
    In this work we present a model of the dielectric function in plasmonic quantum dot (QD) nanolaser. A metal/semiconductor/metal structure was considered to attain plasmonic nanocavity with active region containing: QD, wetting layer and barrier. The dielectric function was calculated for both metal (Ag) and QD structure. The propagation constant of surface plasmon polariton (SPP) at the interface of Ag/InAs-QD structure was calculated and the dispersion relation of the plasmonic QD structure was evaluated. For frequencies far from plasma one, the gap between real and imaginary parts was large and a deviation from linear relation was obvious. The SPP field was strongly localized at the interface due to the effect of zero-dimensional QD structure which has application in the super-resolution and best sensitivity in optical imaging. Results of propagation length of SPP (\\(L_{spp}\\)) also support this. According to the \\(L_{spp}\\) results, the damping in the SPP energy was low in the Ag/InAs-QD compared to that in the Ag/air interface. The obtained results are in the range of experimental ones.

  • Plasmonic Quantum Dot Nanolaser: Effect of “Waveguide Fermi Energy”
    Jamal N. Jabir, S. M. M. Ameen, and Amin Habbeb Al-Khursan

    Springer Science and Business Media LLC
    This study models quantum dot (QD) plasmonic nanolaser. A metal/semiconductor/metal (MSM) structure was considered to attain plasmonic nanocavity. The active region (semiconductor layers) contains the following: QD, wetting layer (WL), and barrier layers. Band alignment between layers was used to predict their parameters. Momentum matrix element for transverse magnetic (TM) mode in QD structure was formulated. Waveguide Fermi energy was introduced and formulated, for the first time, in this work to cover the waveguide contribution (Ag metal layer) in addition to the active region. The high net modal gain was obtained when the waveguide Fermi energy was considered which meant that the increment comes from the material gain, not from the confinement factor. The obtained results were reasoned the high gain due to the change in waveguide Fermi energy in the valence band, where the valence band QD states are fully occupied that are referring to an efficient hole contribution.

  • Ultrahigh Gain from Plasmonic Quantum Dot Nanolaser
    Jamal N Jabir, S M M Ameen, and Amin H Al-Khursan

    IOP Publishing
    This work studies the gain from quantum dot plasmonic nanolaser. A metal/semiconductor/metal structure was considered to attain plasmonic nanocavity with active region contains: quantum dot, wetting layer and barrier layers. Band alignment between layers was used to predict their parameters. Momentum matrix element for transverse magnetic mode in quantum dot structure was formulated. Waveguide Fermi energy was introduced and formulated, for the first time, in this work to cover the waveguide contribution (Ag metal layer) in addition to the active region. The gain obtained here overcomes the electron scattering losses which promises in high gain, high power and high speed applications. The waveguide Fermi energy goes deep in the valence band which explains the high gain, where it is shown that covering the structure by a metal makes valence band quantum dot states fully occupied which refers to an efficient hole contribution.

  • Kerr nonlinearity enhancement by double tunnelling from quantum dot nanostructure
    B. Al-Nashy, S.M.M. Ameen, and Amin H. Al-Khursan

    Elsevier BV
    Abstract A model of the dynamical equations of the density matrix describes double tunnelling between double quantum dot (QD) system states, this is to study Kerr nonlinearity in QD structure. Inhomogeneity in the QD system is included which is not included in earlier studies of Kerr nonlinearity in QDs. Possibilities of subluminal and superluminal light propagation and switching between them are examined. Double tunnelling is shown to obtain giant Kerr dispersion compared with single tunnelling. High conduction- and low valence-band tunnelling components are required to obtain high Kerr dispersion. Working with one tunnel component reduced Kerr dispersion and switching between subluminal and superluminal can be obtained and the EIT window can be removed.

  • Kerr dispersion in a Y-configuration quantum dot system
    B Al-Nashy, S M M Ameen, and Amin H Al-Khursan

    IOP Publishing
    We introduce a Y-configuration model for a double quantum dot (QD) system, which is modeled for Kerr nonlinearity using the density matrix theory. Inhomogeneity in QDs is included in the calculations of the real part (Kerr) and the imaginary part (absorption) of the density matrix, which has not been covered before in Kerr calculations. Five configurations are studied: Y, ladder, Λ, staircase, and weak probe. Frequency detunings, controlling fields, and phases are used to study the structures. Our system shows high controllability as well as a giant Kerr dispersion, propagation without distortion, wide electromagnetic induced transparency, and switching between subluminal to superluminal propagation by tuning its fields.

  • Kerr effect in Y-configuration double-quantum-dot system
    B. Al-Nashy, S. M. M. Amin, and Amin H. Al-Khursan

    The Optical Society
    We have introduced a Y-configuration model from the double-quantum-dot (QD) system to study third-order Kerr nonlinearity based on the density-matrix method. Inhomogeneity in QDs has been included in the calculations of the real (Kerr) and imaginary (absorption) parts of the density matrix, which has not been covered in the earlier Kerr calculations. Our system exhibits high controllability with a single parameter. Giant Kerr dispersion, propagation without distortion, wide electromagnetic-induced transparency, and switching between subluminal to superluminal propagation are obtained by tuning its fields. Controlling and cycling fields can also control the system in addition to the pump field.
