We design a multi-layered solar spectral splitting planar concentrator for near infrared (NIR) light energy harvesting application. Each layer includes a silicon nitride based subwavelength diffraction grating on top of a glass substrate…
In this article, we report a lens design based on a concentric circular structure with continuous changing of thickness defined in a thin plate structure for focusing a plane wave into three spots (triple focusing) and for splitting elastic…
Gravitational lensing deflects light. A single lens deflector can only shear images, but cannot induce rotations. Multiple lens planes can induce rotations. Such rotations can be observed in quadruply imaged sources, and can be used to…
This study presents active beam steering and afocal zooming of light by incorporating liquid crystals (LCs) with graded index photonic crystal (GRIN PC). The GRIN PC structures are composed of low refractive index polymer annular rods…
Beam splitters are pivotal components in integrated microwave and photonic systems. However, conventional designs based on directional coupling or multi-mode interference often suffer from back scattering, frequency-dependent splitting…
Hexagonal MnTe is an altermagnetic semiconductor with $g$-wave symmetry of spin polarization in momentum space. In the nonrelativistic limit, this symmetry mandates that electric current flowing in any crystallographic direction is…
We use optical transient-grating spectroscopy to measure spin diffusion of optically oriented electrons in bulk, semi-insulating GaAs(100). Trapping and recombination do not quickly deplete the photoexcited population. The spin diffusion…
This work focuses on optical multiplexers for mid-IR broadband source in gas sensing application. The design of multiplexer configurations based on two types of diffraction gratings is discussed. Owing to utility of Gaussian approximation…
Angle-selective optical devices are of importance to several applications such as photovoltaics, high-sensitivity photodetectors and displays. There are several approaches to realizing angular selectivity, but it remains challenging to…
Multimode waveguide crossings are crucial components for novel mode-division-multiplexing systems. One of the challenges of multimode waveguide routing in MDM systems is decreasing the inter-mode crosstalk and mode leakage of waveguide…
We introduce a new approach that allows one complete control over the modulation of the effective twist angle change in few-layer van der Waals heterostructures by irradiating them with longitudinal waves of light at the end of a waveguide.…
One of the important advantages of optical metasurfaces over conventional diffractive optical elements is their capability to efficiently deflect light by large angles. However, metasurfaces are conventionally designed using approaches that…
We demonstrate electro-mechanical control of an on-chip GaAs optical beam splitter containing a quantum dot single-photon source. The beam splitter consists of two nanobeam waveguides, which form a directional coupler (DC). The splitting…
We present a framework that reformulates gravitational lensing as an optical phenomenon governed by an effective refractive index, enabling exploration of modified gravity theories using undergraduate-level mathematics and optics. After…
In the coming years, strong gravitational lens discoveries are expected to increase in frequency by two orders of magnitude. Lens-modelling techniques are being developed to prepare for the coming massive influx of new lens data, and blind…
Artificial dielectrics are widely used for Gradient-Index (GRIN) lens antennas. The unit-cell size of an artificial dielectric determines the maximum operating frequency and also drives cost and yield. To explore the frequency limitations…
Rotman lens is a true-time-delay beam forming network with parallel plate structure. Owing to its frequency- independency and wide-band operation, it has gained vast applications as feeding element of linear array antennas. However, the…
In the recent paper [J.\ Phys.\ A 44 (2011) 065203], we have arrived at the closed-form expression for the Green's function for the partial differential operator describing propagation of a scalar wave in an $N$-dimensional ($N\geqslant2$)…
The ability of curved gratings as sectors of concentric circular gratings to couple linearly polarized light into focused surface plasmons is investigated by theory, simulation and experiment. Curved gratings, as sectors of concentric…
We explain the results of Yu et al. (2015b) of the novel sharpness angle measurement to a large number of spectra obtained from the Fermi gamma-ray burst monitor. The sharpness angle is compared to the values obtained from various…
