In most theories of diffraction by a diaphragm, the amplitude of the diffracted wave, and hence the position wave function of the associated particle, is calculated directly without prior calculation of the quantum state. Few models express…
Consider the inverse scattering of time-harmonic acoustic scattering by an infinite rough surface which is supposed to be a local perturbation of a plane. A novel version of reverse time migration (RTM) is proposed to reconstruct the shape…
In this article we study inverse problems of recovering a space-time dependent source component from the lateral boundary observation in a subidffusion model. The mathematical model involves a Djrbashian-Caputo fractional derivative of…
Free-electron lasers (FELs) can now generate temporally short, high power x-ray pulses of unprecedented brightness, even though their longitudinal coherence is relatively poor. The longitudinal coherence can be potentially improved by…
We show that when a narrow beam is incident upon a dielectric interface near the critical angle for total internal reflection it will be transmitted into the far-field with an angular deflection from the direction predicted by Snell's Law,…
A "spatiotemporal dipole" wave source, as defined by D.A.B. Miller (1991), differs from an ordinary ("spatial") dipole source in that the inverted monopole is delayed relative to the uninverted monopole, the delay being equal to the…
The Artmann formula provides an accurate determination of the Goos-Haenchen lateral displacement in terms of the light wavelength, refractive index and incidence angle. In the total reflection region, this formula is widely used in the…
This paper concerns the diffusive limit of the time evolutionary Boltzmann equation in the half space $\mathbb{T}^2\times\mathbb{R}^+$ for a small Knudsen number $\varepsilon>0$. For boundary conditions in the normal direction, it involves…
The inversion of a diffraction pattern offers aberration-free diffraction-limited 3D images without the resolution and depth-of-field limitations of lens-based tomographic systems, the only limitation being radiation damage. We review our…
We investigate interferometric techniques to estimate the deflection angle of an optical beam and compare them to the direct detection of the beam deflection. We show that quantum metrology methods lead to a unifying treatment for both…
The diffusion system with time-fractional order derivative is of great importance mathematically due to the nonlocal property of the fractional order derivative, which can be applied to model the physical phenomena with memory effects. We…
In this paper, we experimentally demonstrate reversible wavefront shaping through mimicking gravitational field. A gradient-index micro-structured optical waveguide with special refractive index profile was constructed whose effective index…
The diffraction limited resolution of light focused by a lens was derived in 1873 by Ernst Abbe. Later in 1952, a method to reach sub-diffraction light spots was proposed by modulating the wavefront of the focused beam. In a related…
A formula for the wavefront of a wave reflected from a diffraction grating with an arbitrary surface profile, as well as with arbitrary non-equidistant and non-parallel grooves was obtained. It was shown that the wavefront of the reflected…
In this paper, we numerically address the inverse problem of identifying a time-dependent coefficient in the time-fractional diffusion equation. An a priori estimate is established to ensure uniqueness and stability of the solution. A fully…
The compensation of chromatic dispersion opened new avenues and extended the level of control upon pattern formation in the \textit{temporal domain}. In this manuscript, we propose the use of a nearly-degenerate laser cavity as a general…
We directly observe longitudinal electromagnetic fields in focused freely propagating terahertz beams of radial and linear polarization. In accordance with theory, the longitudinal fields are phase shifted by a value of pi/2 with respect to…
We introduce an approach to determining the required waveforms to coherently control the optical energy localization in plasmonic nanosystems. This approach is based on the impulsive localized excitation of the nanosystem and time reversal…
After a synoptic panorama about some still unsolved foundational problems involving time-reversal, we show that the \emph{double time-reversal superselection rule} of Nonrelativistic Quantum Mechanics is redundant. We then analyze which,…
In this paper, we consider the inverse boundary problems of recovering the time-dependent nonlinearity and damping term for a semilinear wave equation on a Riemannian manifold. The Carleman estimate and the construction of Gaussian beams…
