Metallic gratings can be used as infrared filters, but their performance is often limited by bandwidth restrictions due to metallic losses. In this work, we propose a metallic groove-slit-groove (GSG) structure that overcomes these…
Diffraction of light at lateral inhomogenities is a central process in the near-field studies of nanoscale phenomena, especially the propagation of surface waves. Theoretical description of this process is extremely challenging due to…

Context: Ground-based telescopes are susceptible to seeing, an atmospheric phenomenon that reduces the resolving power of large observatories to that of a home telescope. Compensating these effects is therefore critical to realizing the…

We report the design and construction of a two-axis goniometer capable of any sample orientation with respect to the external magnetic field. The advantage of this design is that it allows free rotations around a single axis independent of…
We recommend a conceptual design study for a spectroscopic facility in the southern hemisphere comprising a large diameter telescope, fiber system, and spectrographs collectively optimized for massively-multiplexed spectroscopy. As a…
A high sensitivity force sensor based on dielectric microspheres in vacuum, optically trapped by a single, upward-propagating laser beam, is described. Off-axis parabolic mirrors are used both to focus the 1064~nm trapping beam and to…
