We investigate what would happen to the time dependence of a pulse reflected by a disordered single-mode waveguide, if it is closed at one end not by an ordinary mirror but by a phase-conjugating mirror. We find that the waveguide acts like…
The possibility of making an object invisible for detectors has become a topic of considerable interest over the past decades. Most of the studies so far focused on reducing the visibility by reshaping the electromagnetic scattering in the…
Metasurfaces consisting of electrically thin and densely packed planar arrays of subwavelength elements enable an unprecedented control of the impinging electromagnetic fields. Spatially modulated metasurfaces can efficiently tailor the…
This paper presents the concept of spread-spectrum selective camouflaging based on time-modulated metasurface. The spectrum spreading is realized by switching the metasurface between the reflective states of a PEC mirror and a PMC mirror,…
We report on time-resolved broadband transient reflectivity (tr-bb-TR) measurements performed on a bulk single crystal of T$_d$-MoTe$_2$ as a function of the incident pump fluence (F). Tr-bb-TR data unveil photoinduced electronic changes…
The scattering matrix $S$ linearly relates the vector of incoming waves to outgoing wave excitations, and contains an enormous amount of information about the scattering system and its connections to the scattering channels. Time delay is…
Terahertz (THz) communication ensures the provision of ultra-high data rates owing to its abundant bandwidth; however, its performance is impeded by complex propagation mechanisms. In particular, molecular absorption induces a temporal…
An instantaneous time mirror (ITM) is an interesting approach to manipulate wave propagation from the time boundaries. In the time domain, the reversed wave is previously proven to be the temporal derivative of the original pattern. Here,…
The time reversal symmetry of the wave equation allows wave refocusing back at the source. However, this symmetry does not hold in lossy media. We present a new strategy to compensate wave amplitude losses due to attenuation. The strategy…
The recent surge of interest in temporal modulation schemes to induce magnet-free non-reciprocity has inspired several exciting opportunities for photonic technology. Here, we investigate a scheme to realize free-space isolators and highly…
Scattering wave systems that are periodically modulated in time offer many new degrees of freedom to control waves both in spatial and frequency domains. Such systems, albeit linear, do not conserve frequency and require the adaptation of…
Dynamics of femtosecond pulses with the telecom carrier wavelength is investigated numerically in a subwavelength layer of an indium tin oxide (ITO) epsilon-near-zero (ENZ) material with high dispersion and high nonlinearity. Due to the…
Modulation of Intensity Emerging from Zero Effort (MIEZE) is a neutron resonant spin echo technique which allows one to measure time correlation scattering functions in materials by implementing radio-frequency (RF) intensity modulation at…
Electromagnetic wave control using the concept of a reflecting surface is first studied as a near-field and a far-field problem. Using a secondary source present in a wireless communication environment, such as a backscatter tag, it is…
Experiments on Indium Tin Oxide (ITO) have revealed that a relatively broad 200THz pump pulse, roughly 30 cycles in width, can switch ITO from a transparent to a reflecting state within one or two optical cycles, a few Femtoseconds. So far…
A tunable high resolution frequency reference is constructed using the narrowed cavity-linewidth by the optical pumping-assisted V-type electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT). At room temperature, the optical pumping effect will…
We study an ultra-compact plasmonic modulator that can be applied in photonic integrated circuits. The modulator is a metal-insulator-metal waveguide with an additional ultra-thin layer of indium tin oxide (ITO). Bias is applied to the…
We study in this work the so-called "instantaneous time mirrors" in the context of surface plasmons. The latter are associated with high frequency waves at the surface of a conducting sheet. Instantaneous time mirrors were introduced by M.…
We present an experimental study of time refraction of spin waves propagating in microscopic waveguides under the influence of time-varying magnetic fields. Using space- and time-resolved Brillouin light scattering microscopy, we…
In this work, we discuss the realization of mechanical devices with non-reciprocal attributes enabled by inertia-amplifying, time-modulated mechanisms. Our fundamental building-block features a mass, connected to a fixed ground through a…
