The interaction of dense plasmas with an intense laser under a strong external magnetic field has been investigated. When the cyclotron frequency for the ambient magnetic field is higher than the laser frequency, the laser's electromagnetic…
We present a new design of dielectric microcavities supporting modes with large quality factors and highly directional light emission. The key idea is to place a point scatterer inside a dielectric circular microdisk. We show that,…
We investigate whether the force and torque exerted by light pressure on an irregularly shaped dielectric resonator allow to detect resonant frequencies, delivering information complemental to the scattering cross section by mechanical…
The frequency band 1-15 GHz provides exciting prospects for resonant axion haloscopes as indicated by cosmological and astrophysical arguments. Among the challenges currently addressed to reach the required sensitivity, the development of…
We report a surprising observation that the output directionality from wavelength-scale optical microcavities displays extreme sensitivity to deformations of the cavity shape. A variation of the cavity boundary on the order of ten…

Biologically inspired photonic structures are the key for technological advances and for miniaturized lasers. Here random lasers in dye-doped titania with the disordered structure of paper are proposed. Sharp electromagnetic resonances with…
Bound states in the continuum (BICs) have enabled lasers with rich momentum-space textures. However, the output patterns of quasi-BIC lasers remain largely static and confined to a few geometries. Here, a reconfigurable momentum-space…
We present a novel laser mode-locking scheme and discuss its unusual properties and feasibility using a theoretical model. A large set of single-frequency continuous-wave lasers oscillate by amplification in spatially separated gain media.…
Ultrashort pulsed lasers, operating through the phenomenon of mode-locking, have played a significant role in many facets of our society for 50 years, for example in the way we exchange information, measure and diagnose diseases, process…
Nanoscale amplification of non-linear processes in solid-state devices opens novel applications in nano-electronics, nano-medicine or high energy conversion for example. Coupling few nano-joules laser energy at a nanometer scale for strong…
A novel optical layout for a multi-pass resonator is presented paving the way for pulse energy scaling of mode-locked thin-disk lasers. The multi-pass resonator we are proposing consists of a concatenation of nearly identical optical…
The polarization states of lasers are crucial issues both for practical applications and fundamental research. In general, they depend in a combined manner on the properties of the gain material and on the structure of the electromagnetic…
We examine the dynamics of semiconductor lasers coupled in a ring configuration. The lasers, which have stable output intensity when isolated, behave chaotically when coupled unidirectionally in a closed chain. In this way, we show that…
A novel DC and AC driving configuration is proposed for semiconductor superlattices, in which the THz AC driving is provided by an intense bichromatic cw laser. The two components of the laser, usually in the visible light range, are near…
We report a mid-infrared ring laser via fiber-to-waveguide hybrid integration enabled by directional couplers fabricated in fluoride glasses. Directional couplers were inscribed into fluoride glass using femtosecond laser direct writing,…
The focusing of the radiation generated by a polarization current with a superluminally rotating distribution pattern is of a higher order in the plane of rotation than in other directions. Consequently, our previously published asymptotic…
Generically, a laser is composed of an optical resonator coupled to a gain medium. If the light amplification via stimulated emission dominates the mirror losses, the emitted light is coherent. Recent studies have shown that sub-wavelength…
We carry out numerical calculations of the scattering cross section of tubular semiconductor nanocylinders in the optical range. The scattering is investigated for the transversal incidence of light, i.e., along the diameter of the…
