We report a critical narrowing of resonances of a driven potential well, when their eigenfrequencies approach the edge of the continuum. The resonances also obtain unusual sharp-peak shapes at the continuum boundary. The situation can be…

Magnetic interaction between photons and dipoles is essential in electronics, sensing, spectroscopy, and quantum computing. However, its weak strength often requires resonators to confine and store the photons. Here, we present mode…

We demonstrate a single-photon source based on a quantum dot in a micropost microcavity that exhibits a large Purcell factor together with a small multi-photon probability. For a quantum dot on resonance with the cavity, the spontaneous…

We revisit the homogenization problem for the Poisson equation in periodically perforated domains with zero Neumann data at the boundary of the holes and prescribed Dirichlet data at the outer boundary. It is known that, if the periodicity…

We describe an efficient near-field to far-field transformation for optical quasinormal modes, which are the dissipative modes of open cavities and plasmonic resonators with complex eigenfrequencies. As an application of the theory, we show…

A pulse of light, injected into a weakly disordered dielectric medium, typically, will leave its initial location in a short time, by diffusion. However, due to some rare configurations of disorder, there is a possibility of formation of…

Ultracompact nonlinear optical devices utilizing two-dimensional (2D) materials and nanostructures are emerging as important elements of photonic circuits. Integration of the nonlinear material into a subwavelength cavity or waveguide leads…

The development of X-ray scintillators with ultrahigh light yields and ultrafast response times is a long sought-after goal. In this work, we theoretically predict and experimentally demonstrate a fundamental mechanism that pushes the…

The microscopic processes underlying electro-optic sampling of quantum-vacuum fluctuations are discussed, leading to the interpretation of these experiments in terms of an exchange of virtual photons. With this in mind it is shown how one…

Mode purity is an important reference for the quality of the optical vortex. In this work, we propose a self-interference method to directly measure single component in superposed optical vortices based on phase-shifting technology. This…

The paper is devoted to optimization of resonances in a 1-D open optical cavity. The cavity's structure is represented by its dielectric permittivity function e(s). It is assumed that e(s) takes values in the range 1 <= e_1 <= e(s) <= e_2.…

We introduce the concept of photonic flatband resonances for the example of an array of high index dielectric particles. We employ the multiple Mie scattering theory and reveal that both short range and long range interactions between the…

Resonant modes determine the response of electromagnetic devices, including dielectric and plasmonic resonators. Relying on the degrees of freedom that metamaterials provide, this contribution shows how to design, at will, the resonant…

We give an explicit formula for the effective partition function of a harmonically bound particle minimally coupled to a photon field in the dipole approximation. The effective partition function is shown to be the Laplace transform of a…

A simple and efficient analytical model is proposed for analyzing plasmonic phenomena arising in nanoscale defects on metal surfaces, specifically low aspect ratio dome-shaped protrusions and depressions. The model enables the calculation,…

We suggest a better mathematical method, fractional calculus, for studying the behavior of the atom-field interaction in photonic crystals. By studying the spontaneous emission of an atom in a photonic crystal with one-band isotropic model,…

In this paper, we propose a microcavity supported by a designed photonic crystal structure (PhC) that supplies both tunability of cavity modes and quality factor of cavity. Low symmetric defect region provides a trigger effect for the…

Both spontaneous emission and resonant energy transfer can be enhanced significantly when the emitter is placed in the vicinity of metallic or crystal structures. This enhancement can be described using the electromagnetic Green tensor and…

Optical fluorescence imaging is capable of measuring both the spatial and rotational dynamics of single molecules. However, unavoidable measurement noise will result in inaccurate estimates of rotational dynamics, causing a molecule to…

In circuit quantum electrodynamics, measuring the state of a superconducting qubit introduces a loss channel which can enhance spontaneous emission through the Purcell effect, thus decreasing qubit lifetime. This decay can be mitigated by…
