We present subwavelength resonant lattices fashioned as nano- and microstructured films as a basis for a host of device concepts. Whereas the canonical physical properties are fully embodied in a one-dimensional periodic lattice, the final…

In this paper, we present a tailored lens and a tailored reflector in order to reduce the large beam divergence inherent to Orbital Angular Momentum waves (OAM waves-Vortex waves) that are generated by an Uniform Circular Patch Antenna…

Immersion optics enable creation of systems with improved optical concentration and coupling by taking advantage of the fact that the luminance of light is proportional to the square of the refractive index in a lossless optical system.…
