We study cones and cylinders with a 1-parametric isometric deformation carrying at least two planar curves, which remain planar during this continuous flexion and are located in non-parallel planes. We investigate this geometric/kinematic…

The paper is concerned with the three-dimensional electromagnetic scattering from a large open rectangular cavity that is embedded in a perfectly electrically conducting infinite ground plane. By introducing a transparent boundary…

A method for displaying volumetric images, which exploits our binocular vision and does not require eyewear, is discussed. The display can be rendered as a matrix of pivoting micromirrors irradiated by a light beam; each micromirror focuses…

Nearly concentric optical cavities can be used to prepare optical fields with a very small mode volume. We implement an anaclastic design of a such a cavity that significantly simplifies mode matching to the fundamental cavity mode. The…

In this paper, we analytically prove a unique duality relation between the eigenspectra of paraxial optical cavities with non-spherical mirrors: a one-to-one mapping between eigenmodes and eigenvalues of cavities deviating from flat mirrors…

We report a process for fabricating high quality, defect-free spherical mirror templates suitable for developing high finesse optical Fabry-Perot resonators. The process utilizes the controlled reflow of borosilicate glass and differential…

Concave mirrors are fundamental optical elements, yet some easily observed behaviors are rarely addressed in standard textbooks, such as the formation of multiple reflected images. Here we investigate self-imaging -- where the observer is…

Two-dimensional dielectric microcavities are of widespread use in microoptics applications. Recently, a trace formula has been established for dielectric cavities which relates their resonance spectrum to the periodic rays inside the…

In this paper we consider the numerical approximation of the two-phase membrane (obstacle) problem by finite difference method. First, we introduce the notion of viscosity solution for the problem and construct certain discrete nonlinear…

In analogy with optical near-field scanning methods, we use tapered dielectric waveguides as probes for a millimeter wave vector network analyzer. By scanning thin samples between two such probes we are able to map the spatially varying…

The surface figure of x-ray mirrors can be improved by differential deposition of thin films. To achieve the required corrections, WSi2 layers of variable thickness were deposited through beam-defining apertures of different openings. The…

Optical cavities with moving mirrors provide a versatile platform for exploring radiation-matter interactions and optically mediated mechanical effects, whose control has wide technological implications. However, capturing the coupled…

We present a method to implement 3-dimensional polariton confinement with in-situ spectral tuning of the cavity mode. Our tunable microcavity is a hybrid system consisting of a bottom semiconductor distributed Bragg reflector (DBR) with a…

Polytopal methods provide a flexible framework for the numerical approximation of partial differential equations on general meshes. Their convergence analysis raises specific challenges due to their inherently non-conforming nature and, in…

Maxwell equations are solved in a layer comprising a finite number of homogeneous isotropic dielectric regions ended by anisotropic perfectly matched layers (PMLs). The boundary-value problem is solved and the dispersion relation inside the…

We propose a novel method to generate vector beams in planar photonic crystal cavities with multiple missing-hole defects. Simulating the resonant modes in the cavities, we observe that the optical fields in each defect have different phase…

The design of new low-mechanical-loss, high reflectivity mirrors is crucial in the development of the next generation of gravitational-wave observatories. Currently, the state-of-the-art amorphous multilayer reflective coatings which are…

This paper addresses the problem of mirror surface reconstruction, and proposes a solution based on observing the reflections of a moving reference plane on the mirror surface. Unlike previous approaches which require tedious calibration,…
