A statistical model of the nonlinear response of silicon photomultipliers is presented. It includes losses of both the photodetection efficiency and the gain during pixel recovery periods as well as the effect of correlated and uncorrelated…
We present a model and a rigorous method to calculate the transmission coefficient of silicon micro-rings with complex waveguide cross-section including non-linear effects and self-heating, with very short simulation times. The method is…
Frequency blueshifting was recently observed in light pulses propagating on gas filled hollow-core photonic crystal fibers where a plasma has been produced due to photoionization of the gas. One of the propagation models that is adequate to…
Field enhancement of two-photon absorption from a 50-fs pulse on a silicon ridge waveguide is simulated for a varying energy downward propagating 800+/-9.42 nm wavelength plane-wave orthonormal to a waveguide in 2D FDTD using ANSYS…
We theoretically characterize the free-carrier plasma dispersion effect in fully-etched silicon waveguides, with various dielectric material claddings, due to fixed and interface charges at the silicon-dielectric interfaces. The values used…
Photons do not carry sufficient momentum to induce indirect optical transitions in semiconducting materials such as silicon, necessitating the assistance of lattice phonons to conserve momentum. Compared to direct bandgap semiconductors,…
The propagation of $N$ photons in one dimensional waveguides coupled to $M$ qubits is discussed, both in the strong and ultrastrong qubit-waveguide coupling. Special emphasis is placed on the characterisation of the nonlinear response and…
The perturbation of a semiconductor from the thermodynamic equilibrium often leads to the display of nonlinear dynamics and formation of spatiotemporal patterns due to the spontaneous generation of competing processes. Here, we describe the…
We demonstrate analytically and numerically that a subwavelength-core dielectric photonic nanowire embedded in a properly designed photonic crystal fiber cladding shows evidence of a previously unknown kind of nonlinearity (the magnitude of…
We develop a full theoretical analysis of the nonlinear interactions of the two polarizations of a waveguide by means of a vectorial model of pulse propagation which applies to high index subwavelength waveguides. In such waveguides there…
Propagation of a two-photon pulse in a waveguide coupled to a two-level system (TLS) is studied. The pulse is formed by two spatially separated identical wavepackets. A set of equations governing the dynamics of the photon distribution in…
The semiconductor Bloch equations for a two-band model including inter- and intraband excitation are used to study the nonlinear absorption of single and multiple light pulses by direct-gap semiconductors. For a consistent analysis the…
Improving the efficiency of photothermal (PT) therapies and photoacoustic (PA) imaging at the microscopic scale hinges on developing multiphoton-absorbing photothermal molecules or contrast agents that operate in the near-infrared (NIR)…
We have simulated the time evolution of the photon number distribution in a semiconductor quantum dot-microcavity system driven by chirped laser pulses and compare with unchirped results. When phonon interactions with the dot are…
