Optical materials with colour-changing abilities have been explored for display devices, smart windows, or modulation of visual appearance. The efficiency of these materials, however, has strong wavelength dependence, which limits their…

In the last decade, remarkable advances in integrated photonic technologies have enabled table-top experiments and instrumentation to be scaled down to compact chips with significant reduction in size, weight, power consumption, and cost.…

The electronic properties of a material depend on the spatial freedom of the electron wavefunction. A well-known example is graphite, which is a conventional gapless semiconductor, while a single layer of it, graphene, exhibits extremely…

Silicon nitride (SiN) has emerged as a promising platform for integrated nonlinear photonics because of its low propagation loss, wide transparency window, and CMOS compatibility. Nonlinear processes arising from photon-electron…

We study the linear optical conductivity of the Nb$_{2n+1}$Si$_n$Te$_{4n+2}$ family of layered van der Waals materials, which has recently gained considerable attention owing to its dimensionality-tunable electronic structure with a…

Periodic structures with subwavelength features are instrumental in the versatile and effective control of electromagnetic waves from radio frequencies up to optics. In this paper, we theoretically evaluate the potential applications and…

Linear discrete diffraction of light within a waveguide array allows control over the longitudinal spatial profile of light. We propose a method of using this control to effectively modulate the nonlinearity in a spontaneous four wave…

In this paper we report phase modulation obtained by inducing a capacitive charge on graphene layers embedded in the core of a waveguide. There is a biasing regime in which graphene absorption is negligible but large index variations can be…

We demonstrate refractive index trimming of visible-light silicon nitride (SiN) waveguides using suspended heater structures. The thermal isolation of the suspended heaters enabled a semi-uniform temperature distribution with estimated…

By using four layered graphene/gallium nitride (GaN) Schottky diodes with an undoped GaN spacer, we demonstrate highly effective gating of graphene at low bias rendering this type of structure very promising for potential applications. An…

Millimeter-wave superconducting devices offer a platform for quantum experiments at temperatures above 1 K, and new avenues for studying light-matter interactions in the strong coupling regime. Using the intrinsic nonlinearity associated…

We experimentally demonstrate stimulated four-wave mixing in two linearly uncoupled integrated Si$_3$N$_4$ micro-resonators. In our structure the resonance combs of each resonator can be tuned independently, with the energy transfer from…

Long-distance spin transport through anti-ferromagnetic insulators (AFMIs) is a long-standing goal of spintronics research. Unlike conventional spintronics systems, monolayer graphene in quantum Hall regime (QH) offers an unprecedented…

We present in this paper the conductance maps at 100 mK in the disordered polycrystalline film of titanium nitride (TiN). At 5 nm, the film is close to quasi-two dimensional limit and exhibits features pertaining to the superconductor to…

We employ the first-principles GW+Bethe Salpeter equation approach to study the electronic structure and optical absorption spectra of uniaxial strained graphene with many-electron effects included. Applied strain not only induces an…

A uniaxial strain applied to graphene-like materials moves the Dirac nodes along the boundary of the Brillouin zone. An extreme case is the merging of the Dirac node positions to a single degenerate spectral node which gives rise to a new…
