Squared-field amplitude modulus and radiation intensity nonequivalence within nonlinear slabs

open access: yes, 2004
This paper presents a novel approach to wave propagation inside the Fabry-Perot framework. It states that the time-averaged Poynting vector modulus could be nonequivalent with the squared-field amplitude modulus.

Giant Phonon‐Enhanced Terahertz Electro‐Optic Response in Ferroelectric van der Waals NbOX2 (X = Br, I)

open access: yesLaser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.
Van der Waals ferroelectric NbOX2 thin films exhibit phonon‐resonance enhanced electro‐optic responses, 332 pm/V at 3.1 THz (NbOI2) and 192 pm/V at 3.7 THz (NbOBr2), the highest among vdW materials, and show 4% non‐resonant SHG modulation together with resonant phonon‐enhancement under a 150 kV/cm THz pump.

Synergy‐based crop suitability assessment for agrivoltaics: An easy‐to‐use traffic‐light framework for temperate climates

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Climate change and the growing demand for renewable energy are putting increasing pressure on land, as food production and solar power generation often compete for the same areas. In this study, we assessed which temperate‐region crops are best suited for agrivoltaics, a technology combining farming and solar electricity production on the same land. We

Noisy propagation of coherent states in a lossy Kerr medium

open access: yes, 2017
We identify and discuss nonlinear phase noise arising in Kerr self-phase modulation of a coherent light pulse propagating through an attenuating medium with third-order nonlinearity in a dispersion-free setting. This phenomenon, accompanying the standard

Is the Plastic Waste Trade a Barrier to Sustainable Development? Empirical Evidence From RCEP Countries

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT There is widespread consensus on the threats that plastic waste poses to the environment. A significant obstacle to sustainable development, the trade in plastic waste may contribute to plastic pollution. The objective of this research is to look at how the import and export of plastic waste affect the sustainable development of Regional ...

Waveguides with Absorbing Boundaries: Nonlinearity Controlled by an Exceptional Point and Solitons

open access: yes, 2017
We reveal the existence of continuous families of guided single-mode solitons in planar waveguides with weakly nonlinear active core and absorbing boundaries.

Globalization, internal migration, and public goods provision in emerging economies

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Political Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Globalization can introduce new employment opportunities to emerging economies in multinational corporations and exporting firms. Who is best positioned to benefit, and what are the political consequences for “left behind” areas? We argue that primarily advantaged groups seize these opportunities through internal migration toward centers of ...

A Modified Nonlinear Lorentz Model for Third-Order Optical Nonlinearity

open access: yesMathematics
In this study, we propose a new nonlinear polarization model that modifies the polarization equation to account for the material’s nonlinear response. Specifically, the nonlinear restoring force in our model is reformulated as an electric field-dependent

Mode Locking At and Below the CW Threshold

open access: yes, 2013
We explore experimentally a new regime of operation for mode locking in a Ti:Sapphire laser with enhanced Kerr nonlinearity, where the threshold for pulsed operation is lowered below the threshold for continuous-wave (CW) operation.
