The modulator operates in transmission mode with a 18% change in transmission at 305 V. The modulator is based on using the electric field to shift and broaden the room-temperature resonance of the gallium nitride exciton with electric fields.}, number={14}, journal={APPLIED PHYSICS LETTERS}, author={Oberhofer, AE and Muth, JF and Johnson, MAL and Chen, ZY and Fleet, EF and Cooper, GD}, year={2003}, month={Oct}, pages={2748–2750} }

Brief exposures to a higher intensity ultraviolet light resulted in temporary changes in the optical properties of the GaN layer. The photoinduced changes created high contrast patterns on samples that could be observed under an optical microscope with lower intensity ultraviolet excitation. The subband gap yellow photoluminescence peak at 2.2 eV increased significantly after the patterns were created. This change slowly returned (hours) to its initial value at room temperature. The retention time decreased to a few seconds at temperatures above 100 °C. The data showed that a 1.34 eV thermal activation energy exists, which suggests that the cause of these metastable properties is related to the subband gap yellow luminescence.}, number={3}, journal={APPLIED PHYSICS LETTERS}, author={Chang, YC and Oberhofer, AE and Muth, JF and Kolbas, RM and Davis, RF}, year={2001}, month={Jul}, pages={281–283} }
