High absorption in a wide frequency band has attracted considerable interest since their potential applications in frequency spectrum imaging systems and anti-radar cloaking. In this paper, a polarization-independent, ultra-broadband and…
We present a comprehensive study of the impact of non-uniform, i.e.\ path-dependent, photonic losses on the computational complexity of linear-optical processes. Our main result states that, if each beam splitter in a network induces some…
PT-symmetric optical resonators combine absorbing regions with active, amplifying regions. The latter are the source of radiation generated via spontaneous and stimulated emission, which embodies quantum noise and can result in lasing. We…
We propose a spectropolarimeter a covering wavelength range of 3200--7000 {\AA} [3200{\AA} chosen as lower limit to go to the atmospheric cut-off. It's ``needed" for some Serkowski curves and would make the instrument even more unique] for…
Scattering of normally incident longitudinal and transverse acoustic waves by a randomly rough surface of an elastically isotropic solid is analyzed within the small perturbation approach. In the limiting case of a large correlation length…
We demonstrate the existence of a frequency band exhibiting acoustic transparency in 2D and 3D dense granular suspensions, enabling the transmission of a low-frequency ballistic wave excited by a high-frequency broadband ultrasound pulse.…
Optical limiters are nonlinear devices that feature decreasing transmittance with increasing incident optical intensity, and thus can protect sensitive components from high-intensity illumination. The ideal optical limiter reflects rather…
One of the most fascinating aspects of quantum mechanics is the principle impossibility of deterministic errorless discrimination of nonorthogonal signals, such as coherent states. On the one hand, it prevents perfect cloning of quantum…
We show that PT-symmetry may exist only for isolated frequencies in optical systems. Therefore, PT-symmetry breaking transitions as the frequency is tuned up, discussed in Y. D. Chong, L. Ge, and A. D. Stone, Phys. Rev. Lett. 106, 093902…
Anomalous resonances in properly shaped plasmonic nanostructures can in principle lead to infinite absorption/gain efficiencies over broad bandwidths. By developing a closed-form analytical solution for the fields scattered by conjoined…
The optical properties of silicon can be greatly tuned by applying strain and opening new perspectives, particularly in applications where infrared is key. In this work, we use a recent model for the indirect light absorption of silicon and…
Absorption spectroscopy is routinely used to characterise chemical and biological samples. For the state-of-the-art in absorption spectroscopy, precision is theoretically limited by shot-noise due to the fundamental Poisson-distribution of…
An analytical model is presented for a rectangular lattice of isotropic scatterers with electric and magnetic resonances. Each isotropic scatterer is formed by putting appropriately 6 $\Omega$-shaped perfectly conducting particles on the…
This paper documents a simple parametric polynomial line-of-sight channel model for 100-450 GHz band. The band comprises two popular beyond fifth generation (B5G) frequency bands, namely, the D band (110-170 GHz) and the low-THz band…
Designing broadband metamaterial perfect absorbers is challenging due to the intrinsically narrow bandwidth of surface plasmon resonances. Here, the paper reports an ultra-broadband metamaterial absorber by using space filling Gosper curve.…
This paper addresses the problem of outage characterization of an ambient backscatter communication system with a pair of passive tag and reader. In particular, an exact expression for the effective channel distribution is derived. Then,…
Material absorption is a key limitation in nanophotonic systems; however, its characterization is often obscured by scattering and diffraction loss. Here we show that nanomechanical frequency spectroscopy can be used to characterize the…
Adapting Mourre's commutator method to the dissipative setting, we prove a limiting absorption principle for a class of abstract dissipative operators. A consequence is the resolvent estimates for the high frequency Helmholtz equation when…
It is shown that the effect of hole-burning under conditions of coherent population oscillations as well as the light pulse delay in a saturable absorber (a modification of the "slow light" effect) can be interpreted, in a comprehensive…
Light absorption at the boundary of indirect-band-gap and direct-forbidden gap semiconductors is analyzed. It is found that the possibility of the electron momentum nonconservation at the interface leads to essential enhancement of…
