The production of superlattices with pseudomorphically strained quantum wells (QWs) {InxGa1–xAs/GaAs} grown by molecular beam epitaxy on GaAs substrates with (100), (110), and (111)A crys-tallographic surface orientations is reported. The quality of the crystal structure of epitaxial samples is assessed using the atomic force microscopy of their surface. The manifestation of a piezoelectric field in the photoluminescence spectra is reported.

Multilevel quantum states (qudits) represent a promising platform for scalable quantum comput-ing. In this paper, we present a method for precisely controlling such systems using fuzzy quantum measure-ments. The developed method is used for a precise reconstruction of quantum states under conditions of a significant effect of decoherence and quantum noise. Protocols for quantum measurements based on mutu-ally unbiased bases (MUBs) of various dimensions are considered. The accuracy characteristics of sets of ran-dom states uniformly distributed with respect to the Haar measure are studied.

This paper studies the design of a nonlinear model of AlGaAs/InGaAs/GaAs рHEMT micro-wave-frequency range transistors with a gate length of 0.15 μm using parametric analysis methods. In the cal-culations, not only nonlinear current sources but also the dependences of the nonlinear gate-source and gate-drain capacitances on voltages are studied. It is shown that the proposed model makes it possible to describe the IV characteristics of the studied device adequately in the range of drain currents from 0 to 100 mA and the frequency range from 5 to 45 GHz. The error of the model does not exceed 3%

Microfluidic devices are capable of precise drug delivery to the human body. For this purpose, they must be equipped with a compact pump that provides a high flow rate and precise dosing. In this paper, we present a micropump based on a fast electrochemical actuator that meets these requirements. It contains three actuators operating in the peristaltic mode. The device is fabricated from glass and silicon wafers using the standard microfabrication processes. The working part of the pump has a size of about 3 mm3, which is an order of magnitude smaller than other types of diaphragm pumps. The small size of the actuators ensures ultrahigh liquid dosing accuracy of 0.14 nL. At the same time, the high frequency of operation of the actuators makes it possible to develop a specific pumping velocity comparable to other types of pumps.

This paper presents the results of hydrogen electron-cyclotron resonance (ECR) plasma in micro-electronics technology. Its effect on the radiation resistance of the IC and on the quality of the ohmic contact during the formation of UBM metallization is demonstrated. The devices obtained with the use of plasma ECR and without it are analyzed.

The results of a theoretical study of the behavior of a system of nanophotonic devices, consisting of receiving and transmitting plasmonic metal antennas, are presented. Based on the finite element method, the main parameters of antennas located in the TSV channel and receiving a signal in the terahertz frequency range are calculated. The limiting range of signal transmission and the coefficient of its amplification are determined. Conclusions are drawn on the suitability of the presented configuration as a system for wireless data transmission and reception in three-dimensional integrated circuits.
