Considerable progress has recently been made in controling the motion of free atomic particles by means of light pressure exerted by laser radiation. The free fall of atoms and bouncing on a reflecting surface made from evanescent wave…
We analytically study the spontaneous emission of a single optical dipole emitter in the vicinity of a plasmonic nanoshell, based on the Lorenz-Mie theory. We show that the fluorescence enhancement due to the coupling between optical…
Optical lattice loaded with cold atoms can exhibit a tunable photonic band gap for a weak probe field under the conditions of electromagnetically induced transparency. This system possesses a number of advantageous properties, including…
We consider the scattering of the gravitational waves by the weak gravitational fields of lens objects. We obtain the scattered gravitational waveform by treating the gravitational potential of the lens to first order, i.e. using the Born…
Electric dipoles and magnetic dipoles are the most fundamental particles in electromagnetic theory. Huygens and Janus sources, formed by the orthogonal combination of electric and magnetic dipoles, both show good directionality in the near…
Intuitively, light impinging on a spatially symmetric object will be scattered symmetrically. This intuition can fail at the nanoscale if the polarization of the incoming light is properly tailored. In fact, it has been demonstrated that…
A two dimensional flat phononic crystal (PC) lens for focusing off-plane shear waves is proposed. The lens consists of a triangular lattice hole-array, embedded in solid matrix. Self-collimation effect is employed to guide the shear waves…
The dynamics of superconductivity phase in thick stack of Josephson junctions with strong inductive coupling, such as the one realized in layered high-$T_c$ cuprates and possibly the recently discovered FeAs-based superconductors, is…
In recent studies on ultrastrong coupling between matter and light in cavities, the significance of gauge choice when employing the widely-used two-level approximation has been highlighted. Expanding upon these investigations, we extend the…
Magnons in ferrimagnetic insulators such as yttrium iron garnet (YIG) have recently emerged as promising candidates for coherent information processing in microwave circuits. Here we demonstrate optical whispering gallery modes of a YIG…
We demonstrate that long-ranged terrestrial electric fields can be used to exclude or discover ultralight bosonic particles with extremely small charge, beyond that probed by astrophysics. Bound condensates of scalar millicharged particles…
ZnO microspheres fabricated via laser ablation in superfluid helium were found to have bubble-like voids. Even a microsphere demonstrating clear whispering gallery mode resonances in the luminescence had voids. Our analysis confirmed that…
We present cylindrically symmetric, static solutions of the Einstein field equations around a line singularity such that the energy momentum tensor corresponds to infinitely thin photonic shells. Positivity of the energy density of the thin…
Controlled trapping of light absorbing nanoparticles with low-power optical tweezers is crucial for remote manipulation of small objects. This study takes advantage of the synergetic effects of tightly confined local fields of plasmonic…
In this work we report a theoretical study of the lateral resolution granted by a simple glass microcylinder. In this 2D study, we had in mind the 3D analogue -- a microsphere whose ability to form a deeply subwavelength and strongly…
We study the anomalous electromagnetic scattering in the homogenization regime, by a subwavelength thin layer of periodically distributed plasmonic nanoparticles on a perfect conducting plane. By using layer potential techniques, we derive…
Active Janus particles suspended in a plasma were studied experimentally. The Janus particles were micron-size plastic microspheres, one half of which was coated with a thin layer of platinum. They were suspended in the plasma sheath of a…
In this work, a Janus metasurface based tensor impedance holographic antenna (JHA) is proposed that simultaneously radiates linearly polarized (LP) and circularly polarized (CP) beams from a single aperture excited by a single feed. The…
Optical dielectric resonances have the ability to modulate optical energy, and by coupling multiple resonators into photonic molecules, new opportunities emerge in spectral engineering. Using electron-beam spectroscopy, in a 300-keV…
We experimentally demonstrate controlled polarization-selective phenomena in a whispering gallery mode resonator. We observed efficient ($\approx 75 %$) polarization conversion of light in a silica microsphere coupled to a tapered optical…
