Bioprocessing for Value-Added Products from Renewable Resources
provides a timely review of new and unconventional techniques to
manufacture high-value products based on simple biological
material. The current source for most chemicals and materials is
petroleum. Anticipation of its limited future availability, along
with record high prices has spurred interest in alternatives that
will be both sustainable and cost-effective.
Photonic microcavity and nanocavity devices with quantum dot active materials combine the strong confinement of photons and the discrete states of electronic carriers. They are promising candidates for small-footprint, high-speed and low-power active optical components, and provide a robust platform for the enhancement of light-matter interactions. This monograph starts with an introduction to the basic concepts of quantum dot active materials and photonic cavity devices, and the potential applications in photonic integrated circuits and quantum information processing. Then the material growth and device fabrication techniques are described. Microdisk lasers and photonic crystal nanocavity lasers with InAs quantum dot active material are presented as two important examples. The lasing behavior's temperature and wavelength dependences are explained by a simple model. The last part of the monograph presents the proposal and demonstration of the first photonic crystal nanocavity edge emitting laser, which is designed for high density planar integration and to achieve high collection efficiency for nanolasers.
Supercritical carbon dioxide (SCCO2) has dissolving power comparable to that of liquids, is much more compressible than dilute gases, and has transport properties intermediate between gas- and liquid-like. This unusual combination of physical properties can be advantageously exploited in environmentally benign separation and reaction processes, as well as for new kinds of materials processing. This book articles summarises the modifications and preparations of membranes that have been conducted in SCCO2.
