In order to enable high quality lens designs using calcium fluoride (CaF2) and Heraeus Infrasil 301 (Infrasil) for cryogenic operating temperatures, we have measured the absolute refractive index of these two materials as a function of both…

Using the Cryogenic, High-Accuracy Refraction Measuring System (CHARMS) at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center, we have measured the absolute refractive index of five specimens taken from a very large boule of Corning 7980 fused silica from…

The refractive optical design of the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) Near Infrared Camera (NIRCam) uses three infrared materials in its lenses: LiF, BaF2, and ZnSe. In order to provide the instrument's optical designers with accurate,…

The Ohara glass S-FTM16 is of considerable interest for near-infrared optical designs because it transmits well through the K band and because negative S-FTM16 elements can be used to accurately achromatize positive calcium fluoride…

We report comprehensive measurements of the refractive index as a function of wavelength and temperature for four less commonly studied glycols: pentaethylene glycol, hexaethylene glycol, dipropylene glycol (mixture of isomers), and…

Gallium antimonide (GaSb) is a key material for near- and mid-infrared photonics, enabling high-performance laser architectures and detectors. Design and simulation of such devices depend on accurate optical material data, especially the…

Increasing requirements in the sensitivity of interferometric measurements is a common feature of several research fields, from gravitational wave detection to quantum optics. This motivates refined studies of high reflectivity mirrors and…

A thorough analysis of the refractive index of eleven 1-alkyl-3-methylimidazolium-based ionic liquids with three different anions, tetrafluoroborate bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide, and trifluoromethanesulfonate, is reported. Refractive…

We demonstrate refractive index trimming of visible-light silicon nitride (SiN) waveguides using suspended heater structures. The thermal isolation of the suspended heaters enabled a semi-uniform temperature distribution with estimated…

Metasurfaces exploit the ability to engineer the optical phase, amplitude and polarization at subwavelength dimensions providing unprecedented control of light. The realization of the all dielectric approach to metasurfaces has led to the…

We present a robust, precise, and accurate method to simultaneously measure the refractive indices of two transparent materials within an interference coating. This is achieved by measuring both a photometrically accurate transmittance…

A method to engineer the refractive indices of functional materials (TiO2, ZnO, SnO2, SiO2), by nanostructuring in the deep sub-wavelength regime (<20nm), is presented. Block-copolymer templating combined with a wet processing route is used…

Laser cooling of matter through anti-Stokes photoluminescence, where the emitted frequency of light exceeds that of the impinging laser by virtue of absorption of thermal vibrational energy, has been successfully realized in condensed…

We present an experimental method to determine the refractive index of $Al_{x}Ga_{1-x}As$ (x = 0.0 - 0.5) from 300 K to 4 K across the 500 - 1100 nm wavelength range. The values are extracted from spectroscopically observed microcavity…

In this letter, we present the direct loss tangent measurement of a high-resistivity intrinsic (100) silicon wafer in the temperature range from ~ 70 mK to 1 K, approaching the quantum regime. The measurement was performed using a technique…

We present a detailed thermal and structural analysis of a 2m class solar telescope mirror which is subjected to a varying heat load at an observatory site. A 3-dimensional heat transfer model of the mirror takes into account the heating…

The thermoelectric properties in one- and two-dimensional silicon and germanium structures have been investigated using first-principle density functional techniques and linear response for the thermal and electrical transport. We have…

We developed a phase correction method for broadband terahertz time-domain spectroscopy in reflection geometry, which allows us to obtain quantitative and accurate values for the complex refractive index of materials. The process is…

We present suspended heater structures fabricated in a standard C- and O-band silicon (Si) photonics platform that can achieve sufficiently high local temperatures to induce effective refractive index trimming of Si and silicon nitride…

The focus of this paper is the vanishing of the thermal expansion in certain diamond-like semiconductors. In silicon becomes zero at T = 122. K. In germanium the situation is less clear. Previous investigations show that in natural…
