Graphene-based photodetectors have shown responsivities up to 10$^8$A/W and photoconductive gains up to 10$^{8}$ electrons per photon. These photodetectors rely on a highly absorbing layer in close proximity of graphene, which induces a…
Enabling perfect light absorption in ultrathin materials promises the development of exotic photonic devices. Here we demonstrate new strategies that can provide capabilities to rationally design ultrathin (thickness <…
It is shown that the transparency of opaque material with negative permittivity exhibits resonant behavior. The resonance occurs as a result of the excitation of the surface waves at slab boundaries. Dramatic field amplification of the…
The graphene-insulator-semiconductor-structured electron source has garnered significant attention due to its high electron emission efficiency and highly monochromatic electron emission. Graphene, with its c-axis orientation and…
We show that a class of negative index (n) materials has interesting anisotropic optical properties, manifest in the effective refraction index that can be positive, negative, or purely imaginary under different incidence conditions. With…
Recent results by Hoffman et al. showed that it is possible to build a Negative Refractive Material (NIM) by interleaving InGaAs/AlInAs using current nanofabrication technologies. Their findings provide the first experimental proof of a…
We investigate linear resonant absorption by a dense ensemble of molecules confined to a subwavelength layer in two geometries: (i) a free-standing film in homogeneous space and (ii) the same film placed at a controlled distance from a…
The optical absorption properties of graphene wrapped dielectric particles have been investigated by using Mie scattering theory and exact multi-scattering method. It is shown that subwavelength strong absorption in infrared spectra can…
We study electron transport properties of a monoatomic graphite layer (graphene) with different types of disorder. We show that the transport properties of the system depend strongly on the character of disorder. Away from half filling, the…
Two-dimensional (2D) materials, composed of single atomic layers, have attracted vast research interest since the breakthrough discovery of graphene. One major benefit of such systems is the simple ability to tune the chemical potential by…
This paper describes an investigation of the acoustic properties of a rigid plate with a periodic pattern of holes, in a compressible, ideal, inviscid fluid in the absence of mean flow. Leppington and Levine (J. Fluid Mech., 1973) obtained…
We propose a thin, compact, broadband, polarization and angle insensitive metamaterial absorber based on a tungsten reflector, silicon spacer and a top pattern composed of a double square-like ring resonator utilizing nickel(Ni). In such a…
Poorly transparent barriers (e.g., reinforced walls, shielding panels, metallic or high-contrast dielectrics) strongly reflect incident radiation, limiting wireless power transfer (WPT) unless the barrier is structurally modified to support…
In optics, a reflective grating is a conducting surface with a ripple. The typical use of such a grating involves an incident electromagnetic wave with wave vector k in the x-z plane, and interference effects lead to a discrete set of…
Recent experiments on temporal reflection in transmission line metamaterials and theoretical treatments of dispersive time-varying media have unearthed the fundamental role of modulation mechanisms on the interface conditions, underpinning…
Graphene and related two-dimensional materials are promising candidates for atomically thin, flexible, and transparent optoelectronics. In particular, the strong light-matter interaction in graphene has allowed for the development of…
Graphene is only one atom thick, optically transparent, chemically inert and an excellent conductor. These properties seem to make this material an excellent candidate for applications in various photonic devices that require conducting but…
We investigate scattering of the topological surface state of a three-dimensional time-reversal invariant topological insulator when graphene is deposited on the topological-insulator surface. Specifically, we consider the (111) surface of…
We theoretically study the transmittance for normal incidence of linearly polarized light between two media separated by a strained graphene monolayer. We analytically characterize the degree of dichroism and the transparency of graphene as…
The phase picked up by a graphene plasmon upon scattering by an abrupt edge is commonly assumed to be $-\pi$. Here, it is demonstrated that for high plasmon momenta this reflection phase is $\approx -3\pi/4$, virtually independent on either…
