We experimentally demonstrate hyperfine optical pumping of rubidium atoms probed by an evanescent electromagnetic field at a dielectric-vapor interface. This light-atom interaction at the nanoscale is investigated using a right angle prism…
We investigate the effect of nitrogen-vacancy (NV) centers in single crystal diamond on nonlinear optical effects using 40 fs femtosecond laser pulses. The near infrared femtosecond pulses allow us to study purely nonlinear optical effects,…
Optical guided wave dielectric structures with nanoscale slots are known to provide strong electric field enhancements in the slotted region, enabling strong light-matter interactions. Here we demonstrate an ultrahigh-Q slotted 2D photonic…
We demonstrate magnetic field sensing using an ensemble of nitrogen-vacancy centers by recording the variation in the pump-light absorption due to the spin-polarization dependence of the total ground state population. Using a 532 nm pump…
Native defects in semiconductors play an important role in their optoelectronic properties. Nickel oxide (NiO) is one of the few wide-gap p-type oxide semiconductors and its conductivity is believed to be controlled primarily by Ni-vacancy…
The insulator-to-metal transition (IMT) in vanadium dioxide (VO2) can enable a variety of optics applications, including switching and modulation, optical limiting, and tuning of optical resonators. Despite the widespread interest in…
Transient X-ray absorption techniques can measure ultrafast dynamics of the elemental edges in a material or multiple layer junction, giving them immense potential for deconvoluting concurrent processes. However, the interpretation of the…
Infrared transmission and electrical resistivity measurements reveal that single crystals of LaMnPO$_{1-x}$F$_{x}$ (x $\leq$ 0.28) are insulating. The optical gap obtained from transmission measurements is nearly unaffected by doping,…
The pressure-induced changes in the optical properties of $\beta$-Na$_{0.33}$V$_2$O$_5$ single crystals at room temperature were studied by polarization-dependent Raman and far-infrared reflectivity measurements under high pressure. From…
We have performed first-principles calculations to study optical absorption spectra of doped graphene with many-electron effects included. Both self-energy corrections and electron-hole interactions are reduced due to the enhanced screening…
The intrinsic optical properties and peculiarities of the energy structure of hafnium dioxide largely determine the prospects for applying the latter in new generation devices of optoelectronics and nanoelectronics. In this work, we have…
The interaction of high-energy electrons and X-ray photons with soft semiconductors such as halide perovskites is essential for the characterisation and understanding of these optoelectronic materials. Using nano-probe diffraction…
Strongly confined NaVO$^+$ segregation and its thermo-responsive functionality at the interface between simple sputter-deposited amorphous vanadium oxide thin films and soda-lime glass was substantiated in the present study by in-situ…
Silicon nanocrystals with diameters between 1 and 3 nm and surfaces passivated by chlorine or a mixture of chlorine and hydrogen were modeled using density functional theory, and their properties compared with those of fully hydrogenated…
By means of ab-initio calculations we investigate the optical properties of pure a-SiN$_x$ samples, with $x \in [0.4, 1.8]$, and samples embedding silicon nanoclusters (NCs) of diameter $0.5 \leq d \leq 1.0$ nm. In the pure samples the…
We show that the optical and electronic properties of nanocrystalline silicon can be efficiently tuned using impurity doping. In particular, we give evidence, by means of ab-initio calculations, that by properly controlling the doping with…
Long regarded as a model system for studying insulator-to-metal phase transitions, the correlated electron material vanadium dioxide (VO$_2$) is now finding novel uses in device applications. Two of its most appealing aspects are its…
We study experimentally and theoretically optical absorption spectra of neodymium ferroborate in the temperature range $6-32$ K. We show that the temperature dependences of integral intensities of absorption lines demonstrate qualitatively…
The gold nanocone array, fabricated with the ion track method, exhibits exceptionally high light absorptivity, making it a wide angle light absorber. The finite difference time domain (FDTD) method was employed to study the influence of the…
Levitated nanodiamonds containing nitrogen vacancy centres in high vacuum are a potential test bed for numerous phenomena in fundamental physics. However, experiments so far have been limited to low vacuum due to heating arising from…
