We report on the stationary and robust propagation of light beams with rather arbitrary and controllable intensity and dissipation transverse patterns in self-focusing Kerr media with nonlinear absorption. When nonlinear absorption is due…

We analyse waves that propagate along the interface between a dielectric half-space and a half-space filled with a Lorentz material. We show that the corresponding interface condition leads to a generalisation of the classical Leontovich…

Using the FDTD method, we investigate the electromagnetic propagation in two-dimensional photonic crystals, formed by parallel air cylinders in a dielectric medium. The corresponding frequency band structure is computed using the standard…

Theoretical study of arrays of graphene ribbons is currently of high interest due to its potential application in beam splitters, absorbers, and polarizers. In this paper, an analytical method is presented for diffraction analysis of…

A caustic is a mathematical concept describing the beam formation when the beam envelope is reflected or refracted by a manifold. While caustics are common in a wide range of physical systems, caustics typically exhibit a reciprocal wave…

Reflection and transmission for an artificial opal are described through a model of stratified medium based upon a one-dimensional variation of an effective index. The model is notably applicable to a Langmuir-Blodgett type disordered opal.…

The scattering length density profile for a thin film structure can be determined uniquely if both modulus and phase of the reflection coefficient is known. Here, we describe a method for recovering the phase information which utilize a…

This thesis describes experimental work on the use of wavefront shaping to steer light through strongly scattering materials. We find that scattering does not irreversibly scramble the incident wave. By shaping the incident wavefront, we…

Wave propagation in complex media is a universal problem spanning optics, acoustics, mechanics, and condensed matter physics. While disorder usually causes strong scattering, recent theory predicts that a special class of correlated…

Wavefront shaping enables targeted delivery of coherent light into random-scattering media, such as biological tissue, by constructive interference of scattered waves. However, broadband waves have short coherence times, weakening the…

We consider a model for a one-dimensional photonic crystal formed by a succession of Kerr-type equidistant spaceless interfaces immersed in a linear medium. We calculate the band structure and reflectance of this structure as a function of…

With the Marchenko method it is possible to retrieve the wave field inside a medium from its reflection response at the surface. To date, this method has predominantly been applied to naturally occurring materials. In this paper we extend…

We develop a theory for realizing frequency-independent, reflectionless, single-layer metafilms based on the Brewster effect. A metafilm designed based on the theory is numerically analyzed using a finite-difference time-domain method. The…

Metasurfaces are ultra-thin optical elements composed of engineered sub-wavelength structures that enable precise control of light. Their inverse design - determining a geometry that yields a desired optical response - is challenging due to…

This work presents a new design for broadband absorption of low-frequency acoustic waves using a thin coating made of subwavelength acoustic resonators arranged periodically on a reflective surface. We first study the associated scattering…

Dynamic homogenization aims at describing the macroscopic characteristics of wave propagation in microstructured systems. Using a simple method, we derive frequency-dependent homogenized parameters that reproduce the exact dispersion…

Optical limiters are designed to transmit low intensity light, while blocking the light with excessively high intensity. A typical passive limiter absorbs excessive electromagnetic energy, which can cause its overheating and destruction. We…

The problem of diffraction of a waveguide mode by a thin Neumann screen is considered. The incident mode is assumed to have frequency close to the cut-off. The problem is reduced to a propagation problem on a branched surface and then is…

Diffusion models have emerged as state-of-the-art generative methods for image synthesis, yet their potential as general-purpose feature encoders remains underexplored. Trained for denoising and generation without labels, they can be…

Theoretical and computational study of reflection and refraction of electromagnetic waves with $p$-polarized and normal incidence electric wave amplitude vector on anisotropic, inhomogeneous and linear medium has been done. The medium used…
