Heterogeneous materials exhibit anisotropy which is influenced by factors such as individual phase properties and microstructural configuration that form crucial descriptors of heterogeneity. A review of anisotropy indices proposed in the…

Strain-engineering of materials encompasses significant elastic deformation and leads to breaking of the lattice symmetry and as a consequence to the emergence of optical anisotropy. However, the capability to image and map local strain…

The manipulation of light by conventional optical components such as a lenses, prisms and wave plates involves engineering of the wavefront as it propagates through an optically-thick medium. A new class of ultra-flat optical components…

Optomechanical crystals are a promising device platform for quantum transduction and sensing. Precise targeting of the optical and acoustic resonance frequencies of these devices is crucial for future advances on these fronts. However,…

Measurements of the resistivity anisotropy can provide crucial information about the electronic structure and scattering processes in anisotropic and low-dimensional materials, but quantitative measurements by conventional means often…

We describe a setup and procedures for contactless optical 3D-metrology of silicon micro-strip sensors. Space points are obtained by video microscopy and a high precision XY-table. The XY-dimensions are obtained from the movement of the…

We investigate the electronic states around a single vacancy in silicon crystal by using the Green's function approach. The triply degenerate vacancy states within the band gap are found to be extended over a large distance $\sim20 {\rm…

The need for highly accurate, labor-intensive optical alignment has been a major hurdle in our ability to leverage the power of complex photonic integrated circuits. There is a strong need for tolerant and passive alignment methods that…

Optomechanical cavities have proven to be an exceptional tool to explore fundamental and technological aspects of the interaction between mechanical and optical waves. Such interactions strongly benefit from cavities with large…

Background: Nanoscale composition of silk defining its unique properties via a hierarchical structural anisotropy has to be analysed at the highest spatial resolution of tens-of-nanometers corresponding to the size of fibrils made of…

In-plane anisotropy of the resistivity and thermopower was measured for single crystal Bi2-xPbxSr2Co2Oy. There is large in-plane anisotropy, which is attributed to the anisotropic pseudogap formation due to the different crystal symmetry…

We study optical properties of two dimensional silicene using density functional theory based calculations. Our results on optical response property calculations show that they strongly depend on direction of polarization of light, hence…

Structured, periodic optical materials can be used to form photonic crystals capable of dispersing, routing, and trapping light. A similar phenomena in periodic elastic structures can be used to manipulate mechanical vibrations. Here we…

Anharmonic effects in an atomic monolayer thin crystal with honeycomb lattice structure are investigated by analytical and numerical lattice dynamical methods. Starting from a semi-empirical model for anharmonic couplings of third and…

Antiferromagnetic (AFM) FePS3 has gained significant interest recently for its potential applications in spin-related devices. A single layer is comprised of a honeycomb network, stabilized by long-range spin-exchange interactions, with a…

In this work We report on the extensive characterization of amorphous silicon carbide (a-SiC) coatings prepared by physical deposition methods. We compare the results obtained on two different sputtering systems (a standard RF magnetron…

In a series of articles we studied the quantum properties of a degenerate optical parametric oscillator tuned to the first family of transverse modes at the subharmonic. We found that, for a cavity having rotational symmetry respect to the…

We report a strong experimental evidence of the optical anisotropy in a CdTe-based microcavity: the polarization of light is pinned to one of the crystallographic axes independently on the polarization of the excitation. The polarization…
