We observe unique absorption resonances in silver/silica multilayer-based epsilon-near-zero (ENZ) metamaterials that are related to radiative bulk plasmon-polariton states of thin-films originally studied by Ferrell (1958) and Berreman…
Epsilon-near-zero (ENZ) materials have emerged as viable platforms for strong nonlinear optical (NLO) interactions. The NLO phase shift in materials exhibiting an ENZ condition is extremely large, however, direct experimental measurements…
We numerically study the parametric pumped current when magnetic field is applied both in the adiabatic and non-adiabatic regimes. In particular, we investigate the nature of pumped current for systems with resonance as well as…
We study propagation of transverse-magnetic (TM) electromagnetic waves in the bulk and at the surface of magnetized epsilon-near-zero (ENZ) medium in a Voigt configuration. We reveal that in a certain range of material parameters novel…
We theoretically study nonadiabatic corrections for charge pumping in a noninteracting electron model of a single-level quantum dot. We derive a formula for the velocity limit of parameter driving to realize adiabatic pumping and illustrate…
Pumping of electrons through nano-scale devices is one of the fascinating achievements in the field of nano-science with a wide range of applications. To optimize the performance of pumps, operating them at high frequencies is mandatory. We…
Adiabatic Rapid Passage (ARP) is a powerful technique for efficient transfer of population between quantum states. In the lab, the efficiency of ARP is often limited by noise on either the energies of the states or the frequency of the…
We experimentally demonstrate efficient third harmonic generation from an indium tin oxide (ITO) nanofilm (lambda/42 thick) on a glass substrate for a pump wavelength of 1.4 um. A conversion efficiency of 3.3x10^-6 is achieved by exploiting…
We discuss the behaviour of the Larmor frequency shift and the longitudinal relaxation rate due to non-uniform electromagnetic fields on an assembly of spin 1/2 particles, in adiabatic and nonadiabatic regimes. We also show some general…
We review recent theoretical calculations of charge transfer through mesoscopic devices in response to slowly-oscillating, spatially-confined, potentials. The discussion is restricted to non-interacting electrons, and emphasizes the role of…
Adiabatic frequency shifting is demonstrated by tuning an ultrahigh-Q photonic crystal nanocavity dynamically. By resolving the output temporally and spectrally, we showed that the frequency of the light in the cavity follows the cavity…
We propose a method for slowing particles by laser fields that potentially has the ability to generate large forces without the associated momentum diffusion that results from the random directions of spontaneously scattered photons. In…
The ability to change significantly mechanical and wave propagation properties of a structure without rebuilding it has been one of the main challenges in the field of mechanical metamaterials. This stems from the enormous appeal that,…
Plasmonic nanoantennas offer new avenues to manipulate the propagation of light in materials due to their near field enhancement and ultrafast response time. Here we investigate the epsilon-near-zero (ENZ) response in an L-shaped…
We investigate single-photon nonlinear refractive index change and frequency shift of Epsilon-Near-Zero (ENZ) sub-wavelength nanocavities. We apply the rigorous quantum Langevin-noise approach in the framework of Green's tensor quantization…
Nonselective quantum measurements, i.e., measurements without reading the results, are often considered as a resource for manipulating quantum systems. In this work, we investigate optimal acceleration of the Landau-Zener (LZ) transitions…
The adiabatic connection of density functional theory (DFT) for electronic systems is generalized here to negative values of the coupling strength $\alpha$ (with {\em attractive} electrons). In the extreme limit $\alpha\to-\infty$ a simple…
With the aim of describing real-time electron dynamics, we introduce an adiabatic approximation for the equation of motion of the one-body reduced-density matrix (one-matrix). The eigenvalues of the one-matrix, which represent the…
It is found that the electric field can be enhanced strongly inside a permittivity-near-zero object in free space, when the transverse cross section of the object is small and the length along the propagation direction of the incident wave…
We report a theoretical analysis of total absorption conditions in a structure consisting of a lossy coating layer on top of a specular metal substrate, which is known as a Dallenbach absorber. All possible combinations of complex…
