To obtain flat and broad emission spectra, it is effective to increase the relative contribution of the electric-dipole transition.
In this paper we develop a growth process for obtaining flat and relaxed In0.2Ga0.8As layers on GaAs (0 0 1).
The team of Heikenfeld at the University of Cincinnati developed a concept of optical prism by obtaining flat meniscuses for a drop taken between two substrates [72].
It is shown that, in addition to geometric symmetry, appropriate constituent material combination is essential to obtain flat EFCs at the band edge.
Two sets of samples were treated with three successive atomic and molecular nitrogen implantations, in order to obtain flat profiles of nitrogen concentration, namely 20 and 40%.
The buccal surface of the crown was wet ground with 400- and 600-grit SiC abrasive papers in a polishing machine (LaboPol-21; Struers, Copenhagen, Denmark) to obtain flat dentin surface.
In order to obtain flat mounted retinas, the eyes were enucleated and quickly immersed into PBS.
Obtaining flat tissue sections for embedding and microtomy was complicated by the tendency for the thin tissue to curl.
The occlusal enamel was removed with a water-cooled diamond saw in a cutting machine (Labcut 1010, Extec Co., Enfield, CT, USA) to obtain flat mid-coronal dentin surfaces.
Particularly with thin tissue sections or retinal flat-mounts it is rather difficult to obtain flat-embedded specimens under these conditions.
