Monolayer transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs), like MoS$_2$, MoSe$_2$, WS$_2$, and WSe$_2$, feature direct bandgaps, strong spin-orbit coupling, and exciton-polariton interactions at the atomic scale, which could be harnessed for…
This paper discusses free carrier generation by pulsed laser fields as a mechanism to switch the optical properties of semiconductor photonic crystals and bulk semiconductors on an ultrafast time scale. Requirements are set for the…
Nature-inspired hyperuniform disorder offers a promising route to broadband light trapping in ultrathin perovskite solar cells by avoiding narrowband, illumination-sensitive responses commonly associated with periodic nanophotonic textures.…
We study the spectral properties of Spontaneous Parametric Down Conversion in a periodically poled waveguided structure of KTP crystal pumped by ultra-short pulses. Our theoretical analysis reveals a strongly multimode and asymmetric…
Designed an elliptical polarization conversion metasurface (PCM) for Ka-band applications, alongside a high-gain substrate integrated waveguide (SIW) antenna. The PCM elements are integrated into the antenna design in a chessboard array…
Infrared imaging is indispensable for its ability to penetrate obscurants and visualize thermal signatures, yet its practical use is hindered by the intrinsic limitations of conventional detectors. Nonlinear upconversion, which converts…
We present the conceptual design and initial development of the Hysteretic Deformable Mirror (HDM). The HDM is a completely new approach to the design and operation of deformable mirrors for wavefront correction in advanced imaging systems.…
Halide perovskites is a new class of semiconductors with exceptional optoelectronic properties. Among many advantages offered by halide perovskites, the bandgap energy can be tuned in a much broader range than what was possible in…
Multi-wavelength imaging polarimetry at far-infrared wavelengths has proven to be an excellent tool for studying the physical properties of dust, molecular clouds, and magnetic fields in the interstellar medium. Although these wavelengths…
The concept of a hyperuniformity disorder length $h$ was recently introduced for analyzing volume fraction fluctuations for a set of measuring windows. This length permits a direct connection to the nature of disorder in the spatial…
The integration density of photonic integrated circuits has been limited by light coupling between waveguides. Traditional approaches to layout the waveguide with high density are based on refractive index engineering to suppress the light…
Chip-based terahertz (THz) devices are emerging as versatile tools for manipulating mm-wave frequencies in the context of integrated high-speed communication technologies for potential sixth-generation (6G) wireless applications. The…
Large and persistent photoconductivity (LPPC) in semiconductors is due to the trapping of photo-generated minority carriers at crystal defects. Theory has suggested that anion vacancies in II-VI semiconductors are responsible for LPPC due…
We experimentally demonstrate an all-fiber spectrometer consisting of a photonic bandgap fiber bundle and a black and white CCD camera. Photonic crystal fibers used in this work are the large solid core all-plastic Bragg fibers designed for…
Hypersonic phononic bandgap structures confine acoustic vibrations whose wavelength is commensurate with that of light, and have been studied using either time- or frequency-domain optical spectroscopy. Pulsed pump-probe lasers are the…
Transverse $\Lambda$ polarization observed over four decades ago contradicted expectations from early leading-order perturbative QCD calculations. Measurements of $\Lambda$ polarization from unpolarized $pp$ and $p$A collisions have been…
We present proof-of-concept imaging measurements of a polycrystalline material that integrate the elements of conventional high-energy X-ray diffraction microscopy with coherent diffraction imaging techniques, and that can enable in-situ…
We propose a scheme for the generation of counterpropagating polarization-entangled photon pairs from a dual-periodically poled crystal. Compared with the usual forward-wave type source, this source, in the backward-wave way, has a much…
Layered two-dimensional van der Waals (vdW) semiconductors and their heterostructures have been shown to exhibit positive photoconductance (PPC) in many studies. A few recent reports have demonstrated negative photoconductance (NPC) as well…
We report a comprehensive study of polarized infrared/terahertz photocurrents in bulk tellurium crystals. We observe different photocurrent contributions and show that, depending on the experimental conditions, they are caused by the…
