We consider an infinite periodic array of dielectric rods in vacuum with the aim to demonstrate three types of a Bloch bound states in the continuum (BSC), symmetry protected with a zero Bloch vector, embedded into one diffraction channel…
We report bound states in the radiation continuum (BSCs) in a single infinitely long dielectric rod with periodically stepwise modulated permittivity alternating from $\epsilon_1$ to $\epsilon_2$. For $\epsilon_2=1$ in air the rod is…
Diffraction of elastic waves is considered for a system consisting of two parallel arrays of thin (subwavelength) cylinders that are arranged periodically. The embedding media supports waves with all polarizations, one longitudinal and two…
Bound states in the continuum (BICs) are unusual solutions of wave equations describing light or matter: they are discrete and spatially bounded, but exist at the same energy as a continuum of states which propagate to infinity. Until…
A photonic-crystal slab can support bound states in the continuum (BICs) which have infinite lifetimes but embedded into the continuous spectrum of optical modes in free space. The formation of BICs requires a total internal reflection…
We consider the nonlinear scattering and transmission of an atom laser, or Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) on a finite rectangular potential barrier. The nonlinearity inherent in this problem leads to several new physical features beyond the…
Optical bound states in the continuum (BIC) are peculiar topological states that, when realized in a planar photonic crystal lattice, are symmetry-protected from radiating in the far field despite lying within the light cone, i.e., in the…
We consider light scattering by two dimensional arrays of high-index dielectric spheres arranged into the triangular lattice. It is demonstrated that in the case a triple degeneracy of resonant leaky modes in the Gamma-point the scattering…
Electromagnetic bound states in the radiation continuum are studied for periodic double arrays of subwavelength dielectric cylinders in TM polarization. They are similar to localized waveguide mode solutions of Maxwell's equations for metal…
We consider two-dimensional (2D) localized modes in the second-harmonic-generating \chi ^{(2)} system with the harmonic-oscillator (HO) trapping potential. In addition to its realization in optics, the system describes the mean-field…
We study the properties of electromagnetic Bloch waves in semi-infinite periodic structures created by alternating metamaterial and dielectric layers. We derive and analyze the dispersion relations in the long-wavelength limit for both TE-…
In this letter, we demonstrate a novel diffraction-free Bloch surface wave (DF-BSW) sustained on all-dielectric multilayers that does not diffract after being passed through three obstacles or across a single mode fiber. It can propagate in…
We consider E polarized bound states in the radiation continuum (BICs) in circular periodical arrays of $N$ infinitely long dielectric rods. We find that each true BIC which occurs in an infinite linear array has its counterpart in the…
Bound states in the continuum (BICs) have greatly impacted our ability to manipulate light-matter interaction at the nanoscale. However, in periodic structures, BICs are typically realized below the diffraction limit, thus leaving a broad…
Recent years have seen a resurgence of interest in multimode fibers due to their intriguing physics and applications, with spatial beam self-cleaning (BSC) having received special attention. In BSC light condenses into the fundamental fiber…
We develop a semi-analytical model to describe bound states in the continuum (BICs) in photonic crystal slabs. We model leaky modes supported by photonic crystal slabs as a transverse Fabry-Perot resonance composed of a few propagative…
Quasicrystals are ubiquitous in nature. Beyond crystalline solids, they can be created as optically induced or technologically fabricated structures in photonic and phononic systems, as potentials for cold atoms and Bose-Einstein…
We study the direction- and wavelength-dependent polarization anisotropy in light scattering at the air-photonic crystal interface as a function of angle of incidence for TE and TM polarized light. This is done using optical reflectivity…
We report the realization of a BEC of metastable helium-4 atoms (4He*) in an all optical potential. Up to 10^5 spin polarized 4He* atoms are condensed in an optical dipole trap formed from a single, focused, vertically propagating far…
We demonstrate numerically the existence of nonlinear Tamm oscillations at the interface between a substrate and one-dimensional waveguide array with both cubic and saturable, self-focusing and self-defocusing nonlinearity. Light is trapped…
