The luminescence of single and two exciton states in a quantum dot embedded in the active layer of a micropillar cavity has been investigated. Temperature tuning has been used to bring the energy states of the quantum dot and the cavity into resonance. Studying the resonance behavior of the exciton and biexciton transitions with cavity mode revealed a similar Purcell effect for both lines. The cavity-induced changes of the respective radiative lifetimes have been shown to allow for controlling the ratio between the single and two exciton occupation and their relative emission rates in a single quantum dot.

In our contribution, we report on finite-difference time-domain simulations of modes in microring and microdisk terahertz quantum-cascade lasers with external radii of 100 μm and less. Our simulations have revealed a possibility of low radiative loss for lowest and second order whispering gallery modes in such devices, even when the effective mode volume is reduced below the cubic wavelength.

Despite several past proposals to employ the inner cores of multiwalled nanotubes as, among others, ultra-high-frequency oscillators, memory devices, and nano-scale sensors, driving into motion a mass initially at rest within the nanotube outer walls has remained a crippling practical obstacle. In addition to the challenge of applying an external driving force upon the entirely embedded shuttle, it has been reported that the dynamics of such motion is "truly nonlinear", that is, it cannot be reduced to that of harmonic or nearly-harmonic oscillators even in the case of vanishing amplitudes. The author has shown that, since friction is nearly negligible, the inner core can be set into motion by breaking the high axial symmetry of the interlayer dispersion forces exerted on it by the outer walls. For instance, by fabricating nanotubes with even just two segments having slightly different dielectric properties, it was concluded that the motion of a partially extruded core under the action of an external electric field could be remarkably stabilized and electrical energy could be both stored into and released from the van der Waals field. Further significant progress was made by identifying a possible mechanism for the time-modulation of the spectral properties of double-walled nanotubes by acting on the free-carrier exciton screening in semiconducting nanotubes. In this paper, new developments are presented in the accurate mathematical modeling of these complex driven systems and additional future applications of telescoping nanotubes as actuators, non-electrochemical energy nanostorage systems, and neutral particle accelerators are illustrated.
