Laser science has tackled physical limitations to achieve higher power, faster and smaller light sources. The quest for ultra-compact laser that can directly generate coherent optical fields at the nano-scale, far beyond the diffraction…
A new method for dark field imaging is introduced which uses scanned electron diffraction (or 4DSTEM - 4-dimensional scanning transmission electron microscopy) datasets as its input. Instead of working on simple summation of intensity, it…
Exceptional pulse contrast can be critical for ultraintense laser experiments, particularly when using solid density targets, and their use is becoming widespread. However, current plasma mirror technology is becoming inadequate for the new…
Two-dimensional lattices of chiral nanoholes in a plasmonic film with lattice constants being slightly larger than light wavelength are proposed for effective control of polarization and spatial properties of light beams. Effective…
Super-resolution imaging techniques enable nanoscale microscopy in fields such as physics, biology, and chemistry. However, many super-resolution techniques require specialized optical components, such as a helical-phase mask. We present a…
Conventional imaging systems comprise large and expensive optical components which successively mitigate aberrations. Metasurface optics offers a route to miniaturize imaging systems by replacing bulky components with flat and compact…
Negative refractive index materials (NRIM) make possible unique effects such as a convergent at lens due to the reversed Snell-Descartes laws of refraction. NRIM are also known to be able to support a host of surface plasmon states for both…
Plasmonic hyperbolic metasurfaces have emerged as an effective platform for manipulating the propagation of light. Here, confined modes on arrays of silver nanoridges that exhibit hyperbolic dispersion are used to demonstrate and model a…
This paper is concerned with the inverse problem of reconstructing a small object from far field measurements. The inverse problem is severally ill-posed because of the diffraction limit and low signal to noise ratio. We propose a novel…
In this paper we study numerically and experimentally the possibility of using metallic photonic crystals (PCs) of different geometries (log-piles, direct and inverse opals) as visible light sources. It is found that by tuning geometrical…
We introduce the concept of polychromatic plasmonics and suggest an broadband plasmonic lens for nanofocusing of surface plasmon polaritons. The lens employs a parabolically modulated metal-dielectric-metal structure. This plasmonic lens…
We demonstrate ultrasound detection with 500-$\mu\mathrm{{m}}$-diameter photonic-crystal slab (PCS) sensors fabricated from CMOS-compatible technology. An ultrasound signal impinging a PCS sensor causes a local modulation of the refractive…
Plasmonic nanoparticles influence the absorption and emission processes of nearby emitters due to local enhancements of the illuminating radiation and the photonic density of states. Here, we use the plasmon resonance of metal nanoparticles…
We present a direct measurement of the nanoscale dynamics of plasma mirrors using wavefront measurement techniques. This two-dimensional measurement, performed via pump-probe diagnostics, enables the reconstruction of the three-dimensional…
This article presents a method to perform diffraction tomography in a standard microscope that includes an LED array for illumination. After acquiring a sequence of intensity-only images of a thick sample, a ptychography-based…
Interferometers are widely used in imaging technologies to achieve enhanced spatial resolution, but require that the incoming photons be indistinguishable. In previous work, we built and analyzed color erasure detectors which expand the…
Since the invention of digital cameras there has been a concerted drive towards detector arrays with higher spatial resolution. Microscanning is a technique that provides a final higher resolution image by combining multiple images of a…
Diffraction gratings disperse light in a rainbow of colors with the opposite order than refractive prisms, a phenomenon known as negative dispersion. While refractive dispersion can be controlled via material refractive index, diffractive…
In this paper we demonstrate the use of plasmonic focusing in conjunction with non-linear photoemisison to develop geometrically flat nanoscale electron sources with less than 40 pm-rad root mean squared (rms) normalized transverse…
In the past years modern mathematical methods for image analysis have led to a revolution in many fields, from computer vision to scientific imaging. However, some recently developed image processing techniques successfully exploited by…
