Engineering phonon transport in physical systems is a subject of interest in the study of materials and plays a crucial role in controlling energy and heat transfer. Of particular interest are non-reciprocal phononic systems, which in…

We theoretically study Dyakonov surface waveguide modes that propagate along the planar strip interfacial waveguide between two uniaxial dielectrics. We demonstrate that due to the one-dimensional electromagnetic confinement, Dyakonov…

It is possible to confine vibrational modes to silicon nanocrystals by encapsulating them within hydrogenated amorphous silicon. This is not because of the small impedance mismatch between materials but, rather, is due to higher order…

We propose a new approach to provide wideband multi-mode four-wave mixing, independent of the intrinsic waveguide dispersion. We adopt concepts from quantum mechanics and sub-wavelength engineering to design an effective photon well, with a…

We have studied acoustic topological edge modes in a honeycomb phononic crystal composed of metallic nano-pillars on a LiNbO$_3$ substrate. Acoustic band calculations show that the topological surface acoustic wave (SAW) mode inhabits the…

Modal phase matching (MPM) is a widely used phase matching technique in Al$_x$Ga$_{1-x}$As and other $\chi^{(2)}$ nonlinear waveguides for efficient wavelength conversions. The use of a non-fundamental spatial mode compensates the material…

We present an analysis of acoustic phonon propagation through long, free-standing, insulating wires with rough surfaces. Due to a crossover from ballistic propagation of the lowest-frequency phonon mode at $\omega <\omega _{1}=\pi c/W$ to a…

The broadening and polarization of excitonic luminescence in monolayer TMDs largely suffer from inhomogeneity and temperature - an unresolved problem to date. In this work, through few-layer-graphene encapsulation of monolayer WS$_2$, we…

Superconducting traveling-wave parametric amplifiers have emerged as highly promising devices for near-quantum-limited broadband amplification of microwave signals and are essential for high quantum-efficiency microwave readout lines.…

Surface acoustic waves (SAWs) coupled to quantum dots (QDs), trapped atoms and ions, and point defects have been proposed as quantum transduction platforms, yet the requisite coupling rates and cavity lifetimes have not been experimentally…

In order to confine waves beyond the diffraction limit, advances in fabrication techniques have enabled subwavelength structuring of matter, achieving near-field control of light and other types of waves. The price is often expensive…

We describe the results of the two methods we developed to calculate the stationary nonlinear solutions in one-dimensional plasmonic slot waveguides made of a finite-thickness nonlinear dielectric core surrounded by metal regions. These two…

Photons and electrons transmit information to form complex systems and networks. Phonons on the other hand, the quanta of mechanical motion, are often considered only as carriers of thermal energy. Nonetheless, their flow can also be molded…

Material characteristics and input-field specifics limit the controllability of nonlinear electromagnetic-field interactions. As these nonlinear interactions could be exploited to create strongly localized bright and dark waves, such as…

Single-mode high-index-contrast waveguides have been ubiquitously exploited in optical, microwave, and phononic structures for achieving enhanced wave-matter interactions. Although micro-scale optomechanical and electro-optical devices have…

We discuss the possible cooling of different phonon modes via three wave mixing interactions of vibrational and optical modes. Since phonon modes exhibit a variety of dispersion relations or frequency spectra with diverse spatial…
