Successful exploitations of strongly confined surface plasmon-polaritons critically rely on their efficient and rapid conversion to lossless channels. We demonstrate a simple, robust, and broad-band butt-coupling technique for connecting a…
Spatial Fluorescence Cross Correlation Spectroscopy is a rarely investigated version of Fluorescence Correlation Spectroscopy, in which the fluorescence signals from different observation volumes are cross-correlated. In the reported…
Fluorescence imaging is indispensable to biology and neuroscience. The need for large-scale imaging in freely behaving animals has further driven the development in miniaturized microscopes (miniscopes). However, conventional microscopes /…
Particle indistinguishability is at the heart of quantum statistics that regulates fundamental phenomena such as the electronic band structure of solids, Bose-Einstein condensation and superconductivity. Moreover, it is necessary in…
In this work, we study the conditions under which fluorescent beads can be used to emulate single fluorescent molecules in the calibration of optical microscopes. Although beads are widely used due to their brightness and easy manipulation,…
A fully integrated waveguide-based, efficient surface plasmon coupler composed of a realistic non-tapered dielectric waveguide with graphene patches and sheet is designed and optimized for the infrared. The coupling efficiency can reach…
Optical intensity interferometry, developed in the 1950s, is a simple and inexpensive method for achieving angular resolutions on microarcsecond scales. Its low sensitivity has limited intensity interferometric observations to bright stars…
Millimetre-wave observations represent an important tool for Cosmology studies. The Line Intensity Mapping (LIM) technique has been proposed to map in three dimensions the specific intensity due to line (e.g. [CII], CO) emission, for…
Silicon photonic devices are poised to enter high volume markets such as data-communications, telecommunications, biological sensing, and optical phased arrays; however, permanently attaching a fiber to the photonic chip with high optical…
We describe the apparatus of a fluorescence optical microscope with both single-photon and two-photon non-diffracting light sheets excitation for large volume imaging. With special design to accommodate two different wavelength ranges…
Brillouin scattering has applications ranging from signal processing, sensing and microscopy, to quantum information and fundamental science. Most of these applications rely on the electrostrictive interaction between light and phonons.…
It has recently been proposed, with the help of numerical investigations, that fluorescence correlation spectroscopy at variable observation area can reveal the existence of a meshgrid of semi-permeable barriers hindering the…
The spiral phase contrast microscope can clearly distinguish the morphological information of the low contrast objects (i.e., biological samples) because of the isotropic edge-enhancement effect, while the bright field microscope can image…

We demonstrate a quantitative broadband fiber sensor, based on evanescent field sensing in the cladding holes of an air-suspended solid-core photonic crystal fiber. We discuss the fabrication process, together with the structural- and…
As silicon photonics transitions from research to commercial deployment, packaging solutions that efficiently couple light into highly-compact and functional sub-micron silicon waveguides are imperative but remain challenging. The 220 nm…
In this paper, we describe the principle of a multi-aperture interferometer that uses a phase-shifting technique and is suitable for quick, snapshot imaging of astrophysical objects at extreme angular resolution through Fourier inversion. A…
Few-layer molybdenum disulfide (FL-MoS$_2$) films have been integrated into amorphous silicon (a-Si:H) pin photodetectors. To achieve this, vertical a-Si:H photodiodes were grown by plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PE-CVD) on top…
