Silver nanoparticles dispersed on the surface of an inverted GaN LED were found to plasmonically enhance the near-bandedge emission. The resonant surface plasmon coupling led to a significant enhancement in the exciton decay rate and the…
Membrane external-cavity surface-emitting lasers (MECSELs) are at the forefront of pushing the performance limits of vertically emitting semiconductor lasers. Their simple idea of using just a very thin (hundreds of nanometers to few…
A coupled optoelectronic model was implemented along with the differential evolution algorithm to assess the efficacy of grading the bandgap of the CZTSSe layer for enhancing the power conversion efficiency of thin-film CZTSSe solar cells.…
We present a first calculation of the rate for plasmon production in semiconductors from nuclei recoiling against dark matter. The process is analogous to bremsstrahlung of transverse photon modes, but with a longitudinal plasmon mode…
Excitons in atomically-thin semiconductors interact very strongly with electromagnetic radiation and are necessarily close to a surface. Here, we exploit the deep-subwavelength confinement of surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) at the edge of…
We calculate the quantum state of the plasmon field excited by an ensemble of molecular emitters, which are driven by exchange of electrons with metallic nano-particle electrodes. Assuming identical emitters that are coupled collectively to…
We develop a non-local dielectric response theory to describe the temperature dependence of exciton lifetime in metal-semiconductor heterostructures. Coupling between excitons and surface plasmons results in a strongly nonmonotonous…
Excitonic semiconductors have been a subject of research for photovoltaic applications for many decades. Among them, the organic polymers and small molecules based solar cells have now exceeded 19% power conversion efficiency (PCE). While…
Optical readout of GEM based devices by means of high granularity and low noise CMOS sensors allows to obtain very interesting tracking performance. Space resolution of the order of tens of $\mu$m were measured on the GEM plane along with…
When plasmonic nanoparticles are coupled with semiconductors, highly energetic hot carriers can be extracted from the metal-semiconductor interface for various applications in light energy conversion. Hot charge-carrier extraction upon…
Harmonic generation in underdense spatially homogeneous plasma is generally expected to be inefficient: in an unmagnetized uniform plasma the fundamental and its harmonics cannot be phase-matched, resulting in third-harmonic generation…
We show that free electrons can efficiently excite plasmons in doped graphene with probabilities of order one per electron. More precisely, we predict multiple excitations of a single confined plasmon mode in graphene nanostructures. These…
A model for the description of photonuclear reactions in the multi-GeV range is described that combines the coherent initial state interactions (shadowing) of the incoming photon with an incoherent coupled channel description of final state…
Creating a single bandgap solar cell that approaches the Shockley-Queisser limit requires a highly reflective rear mirror. This mirror enhances the voltage of the solar cell by providing photons with multiple opportunities for escaping out…
Inelastic electron tunneling provides a low-energy pathway for the excitation of surface plasmons and light emission. We theoretically investigate tunnel junctions based on metals and graphene. We show that graphene is potentially a highly…
The Silicon Electron Multiplier (SiEM) is a novel sensor concept for minimum ionizing particle (MIP) detection which uses internal gain and fine pitch to achieve excellent temporal and spatial resolution. In contrast to sensors where the…
We provide an efficient method for the calculation of high-gain, twin-beam generation in waveguides derived from a canonical treatment of Maxwell's equations. Equations of motion are derived that naturally accommodate photon generation via…
Plasmas generated using energetic electron beams are well known for their low electron temperature ($T_{e}$) and plasma potential, which makes them attractive for atomic-precision plasma processing applications such as atomic layer etch and…
We consider the electron-positron plasma generation processes in the magnetospheres of magnetars - neutron stars with strong surface magnetic fields, B = 10^(14) - 10^(15) G. We show that the photon splitting in a magnetic field, which is…
Recent advancements in nonlinear nanophotonics are driven by the exploration of sharp resonances within high-index dielectric metasurfaces. In this work, we leverage doubly degenerate quasi-bound states in the continuum (quasi-BICs) to…
