The appeal of lasers can be attributed to both their ubiquitous applications and their role as model systems for elucidating nonequilibrium and cooperative phenomena. Introducing novel concepts in lasers thus has a potential for both…
An approach for measuring linear X-ray polarization over a broad-band using conventional spectroscopic optics is described. A set of multilayer-coated flats reflect the dispersed X-rays to the instrument detectors. The intensity variation…
Terahertz (THz) waves are a highly sensitive probe of free carrier concentrations in semiconducting materials. However, most experiments operate in the far-field, which precludes the observation of nanoscale features that affect the…
We point out some advantages of making observations of extrasolar planets in linearly polarized (LP) light. Older cool stars have quite low levels (~ 10^-4 to 10^-5) of fractional LP, while extrasolar planets can have relatively high…
Considering the effective Euler-Heisenberg Lagrangian, i.e., non-linear photon-photon interactions, we study the circular polarization of electromagnetic radiation based on the time-evolution of Stokes parameters. To the leading order, we…
The unique optoelectronic properties of single layer graphene (SLG) are ideal for the development of photonic devices across a broad range of frequencies, from X-rays to microwaves. In the terahertz (THz) range (0.1-10 THz frequency) this…
We demonstrate a high temperature performance quantum detector of Terahertz (THz) radiation based on three-dimensional metamaterial. The metamaterial unit cell consists of an inductor-capacitor (LC) resonator laterally coupled with antenna…
Ellipsometry is a technique whereby the measurement of the two orthogonal polarization components of light reflected at glancing incidence allows a characterization of the optical properties of a material at a particular frequency.…
This lab note introduces the "Stokes Camera," a simple and novel experimental arrangement for real-time measurement of spatial amplitude and polarisation and thus spatially resolved Stokes parameters. It uses a polarisation sensitive camera…
Using polarization measurements in remote sensing and optical studies allows retrieving more information. We consider relationship between the reflection coefficients of plane and rough surfaces for linearly polarized waves. Certain…
It is reported that terahertz radiation from 0.69 THz to 2.54 THz has been sensitively detected in a device consisting of bundles of metallic carbon nanotubes, quasi-optically coupled through a lithographically fabricated antenna, and a…
Linearly polarized emission is described, in general, in terms of the Stokes parameters $Q$ and $U$, from which the polarization intensity and polarization angle can be determined. Although the polarization intensity and polarization angle…
The nature of electronic motion and structural information of atoms and molecules is encoded into strong-field induced radiations ranging from terahertz (THz) to extreme ultraviolet wavelength. The dependence of THz yields in bi-chromatic…
Nano-scale lasers harnessing metallic plasmons hold promise across physical sciences and industrial applications. Plasmons are categorized as surface plasmon polaritons (SPP) and localized surface plasmons (LSP). While SPP has gained…
Non-equilibrium quantum rings emit circular polarized subterahertz radiation with a polarization degree controllable on nano- to picosecond time scales. This we conclude using a theory developed here for the time-dependent detection of the…
We analyze the polarization properties of the tilted off-axis dual-reflector submillimeter-wave telescope on the ESA PLANCK Surveyor designed for measuring the temperature anisotropies and polarization characteristics of the cosmic…
We consider a far infrared (terahertz), room-temperature detector based on a microcantilever sensor of the radiation pressure. This system has a significantly higher sensitivity than existing uncooled detectors in the far infrared…
Studies of photoluminescence (PL) can provide fundamental insight into the optical properties of semiconductor nanoparticles (NPs) but the same is being limited by NP size distribution and low luminescence yield. Inorganic semiconductor…
Low temperature detectors are nowadays a technology widely used for rare events studies, such as the search for dark matter candidates and neutrino-less double beta decay. The convolution of the thermal and electrical response of these…
We have developed a detector which records the full polarisation state of a terahertz (THz) pulse propagating in free space. The three-electrode photoconductive receiver simultaneously records the electric field of an electromagnetic pulse…
