SEMICONDUCTIVE NANOWIRE SOLID STATE OPTICAL DEVICE AND CONTROL METHOD THEREOF

摘要

Disclosed are a semiconductor nanowire solid state optical device and a control method thereof. The device comprises a nanowire, a first electrode, a second electrode, an electrical circuit and a mechanical micro device. The nanowire has a first end and a second end. The first electrode is coupled to the first end. The second electrode is coupled to the second end. The electrical circuit is coupled to the first electrode and the second electrode. The mechanical micro device is conjuncted with the nanowire for applying an external force to the nanowire to form highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) and lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) in the nanowire. The HOMO and LUMO are employed as an n-type semiconductor and a p-type semiconductor, respectively. The nanowire is a semiconductor when an external force is applied thereto.
