Distributed Bragg reflectors (DBRs) are one of the basic photonic structures used to define microcavities for fundamental light-matter coupling studies, as well as to optimize performance of optoelectronic and photonic devices, e.g., lasers…
Distributed Bragg Reflectors (DBR) are well-established photonic structures that are used in many photonic applications. However, most of the DBRs are based on different materials or require post-process etching which can hinder integration…

Technological advances in the fabrication of nanophotonic circuits have driven the scientific community to increasingly focus on the precise tailoring of their key optical properties, over a broadband spectral domain. In this context, the…
Strong interference in ultrathin film semiconductor absorbers on metallic back reflectors has been shown to enhance the light harvesting efficiency of solar cell materials. However, metallic back reflectors are not suitable for tandem cell…
Highly reflective mirrors are indispensable components in a variety of state-of-the-art photonic devices. Typically used, bulky, multi-layered distributed Bragg (DBR) reflectors are limited to lattice-matched semiconductors or nonconductive…
High quality 940 nm Al$_x$Ga$_{1-x}$As n-type distributed Bragg reflectors (DBRs) were successfully monolithically grown on off-cut Ge (100) substrates. The Ge-DBRs have reflectivity spectra comparable to those grown on conventional bulk…

Chromatic aberrations impose a fundamental barrier on optical design, confining most imaging systems to narrow spectral bands with fractional bandwidths typically limited to $\Delta\lambda/\lambda < 1$. Here we report a monolithic,…
Multimode interference reflectors (MIRs) were recently introduced as a new type of photonic integrated devices for on-chip, broadband light reflection. In the original proposal, different MIRs were demonstrated based on total internal…
We present plasmonic Bragg reflectors for increasing the extraordinary optical transmission through periodic arrays of subwavelength apertures in a metal film. The increase in transmission arises by preventing loss at the edges of the…

Here, we demonstrate a simple direct maskless laser-based approach for fabrication of back-reflector-coupled plasmonic nanorings arrays. The approach is based on delicate ablation of an upper metal film of a metal-insulator-metal (MIM)…
The mid-infrared (MIR) spectral range is of immense use for civilian and military applications. The large number of vibrational absorption bands in this range can be used for gas sensing, process control and spectroscopy. In addition, there…
