Directional Control of Chiral Polymer Emission Dissymmetry by Plasmonic Metasurfaces
Circularly polarized (CP) emission is central to next-generation photonic and optoelectronic technologies, yet simultaneously controlling its directionality, intensity, and handedness remains a…Phase matching and mode coupling in photonic-crystal ring resonators
Photonic-crystal ring resonators, in which periodic refractive-index modulations couple counter-propagating modes, have become a widely used platform for nonlinear photonics, offering mode-by-mode…Geometric Pumping of Optical Work in Coherent Wave Scattering
Optical work exchanged between light and time-varying matter underlies a wide range of emerging photonic technologies, yet a general geometric theory describing its generation and control has been…Photonic and Electronic Interaction of TMD-Hybridized ZnO Nanowire Lasers
Semiconductor nanowire lasers are promising on-chip coherent light sources for photonic integrated circuits, but integration inevitably places them in contact with other materials, thereby changing…3D Printed Monolithic Optomechanical Chassis for an Unbalanced Field-Widened Interferometer
Additive manufacturing is increasingly being explored as an approach for producing complex structures for optical hardware.Topological Transitions of Evanescent Waves
We study the band structure of evanescent waves, that is, the decaying or growing solutions that live within the gaps of tight-binding Hamiltonians.Reliability of Fisher-information bounds for dielectric metalenses: a site-resolved RCWA audit
We assess the reliability of localization precision predicted for a 1716-nanopillar dielectric metalens using a site-resolved complex RCWA library and a vectorial Poisson Fisher model.Dispersive Corrections to Electromagnetic Energy and Power Flux Are Imprints of Eliminated Degrees of Freedom
In a spatially dispersive medium the electromagnetic energy and flux are given by the frequency and wave-vector derivatives of the constitutive parameters, a result known as the Agranovich--Ginzburg…Thermally enhanced magnon-phonon resonance in van der Waals antiferromagnet FePS3
Strong coupling between collective excitations provides a route to controlling quantum states of matter, yet its evolution under thermal fluctuations remains poorly understood.Asymptotic electromagnetic transition conditions for thin layers: the arithmetic-mean field and susceptibility hybridization
Effective transition conditions that replace a thin polarizable layer by a zero-thickness sheet are commonly applied in electromagnetic models of two-dimensional (2D) materials and metasurfaces.Reference-Beam-Assisted Perturbation-Resistant Imaging Through A Single Multimode Fiber
Multimode fiber (MMF) imaging is highly sensitive to mechanical perturbations, which alter modal coupling and disrupt the speckle-to-target mapping.A New Bound on Light-by-Light Scattering in the Low-Energy Regime
The superposition principle at the heart of optics states that electromagnetic fields do not interact in vacuum.Wavefront engineering with atomic Huygens' surfaces made simple
Atomic arrays provide a cooperative platform for light-mediated interactions in nonlocal metasurfaces which can operate in the quantum regime without nanofabricated optical elements or intrinsic…Impedance-controlled Laser Dynamics in Near-Zero Index Media
Near-zero-index (NZI) media have been explored for controlling spontaneous emission, but their impact on stimulated emission and lasing properties remains unexplored within their different classes…Nonlinearity-Induced Suppression of Dissipation in Bath-Coupled Floquet Topological Insulators
Topological insulators can host chiral, disorder-robust edge states that dissipate energy when coupled to an external bath.Temporal stretching of single-photon pulses by intra-cavity frequency conversion
Spectral bandwidth and frequency mismatch between quantum light emitters and quantum components is a common problem in the realization of hybrid quantum information networks.LIPS-PC: Learning Illumination Patterns for Single-Pixel Classification
In single-pixel (ghost) imaging, known illumination patterns probe an object and a detector with no spatial resolution returns one number per pattern.Observation of pseudospin-locked chiral edge transport in gyromagnetic photonic crystals
Photonic pseudospins enable selective excitation and routing of light, but perturbations that mix opposite pseudospins can induce backscattering in helical edge channels.Generalized Lorentz Framework for Active Semiconductor Quantum Surface Plasmonics
Nanostructured semiconductors provide an actively tunable platform for light-matter interactions across a broad spectral range.Synchronization in one-dimensional arrays of photon condensates
We investigate the synchronization of coupled photonic Bose-Einstein condensates in dye-filled microcavity arrays, subject to a potential gradient.
