On-chip coherent visible and near-infrared (NIR) light generation has broad applications in metrology, bio-sensing, and quantum information. High-Q microresonators are ideal candidates for generating light across such broad wavelength…
Epsilon-near-zero (ENZ) materials have shown significant potential for nonlinear optical applications due to their ultrafast hot carriers and consequent optical nonlinearity enhancement. Modified poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT)…
Extreme confinement of electromagnetic energy by phonon polaritons holds the promise of strong and new forms of control over the dynamics of matter. To bring such control to the atomic-scale limit, it is important to consider phonon…

Nonlinear optical frequency conversion, where optical fields interact with a nonlinear medium to generate new frequencies, is a key phenomenon in modern photonic systems. However, a major challenge with these techniques lies in the…
$\beta$-Ga$_2$O$_3$ is a semiconductor with bandgap in the deep-UV ~ 5 eV. Due to its strong phonon-hole coupling, holes are self-trapped inhibiting bandgap luminescence at the deep-UV. In contrast, the self-trapped holes (STH) can exhibit…
