Fundamental absorption bandwidth to thickness limit for transparent homogeneous layers

Nanophotonics
Past work has considered the analytic properties of the reflection coefficient for a metal-backed slab. The primary result established a fundamental relationship for the minimal layer thickness to bandwidth ratio achievable for an absorber. There has yet

Temperature Dependent Complex Refractive Index (CRI) of Hexagonal Ice in the Range 150–270 K: Infrared and Far‐Infrared Transmission Measurements at the AILES Beamline

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 15, 16 August 2026.
Abstract The complex refractive index (CRI) of ice is one of the main parameters driving the optical properties of ice clouds and frozen surfaces, hence their climate impact. While already characterized at short wavelengths, ice CRI has never been measured across the infrared range at temperatures relevant to Earth.

Designing refractive index fluids using the Kramers–Kronig relations

Faraday Discussions, 2020
Kramers–Kronig relations can be used to control the interplay of light absorption and dispersion. This concept is demonstrated by using bright commodity food dyes to design non-toxic high refractive index fluids.

Comparing the Effects of Chemical Optical Clearing Agents and Mechanical Compression on the Optical Attenuation of Porcine Skin

Journal of Biophotonics, Volume 19, Issue 7, July 2026.
Quantitative SD‐OCT analysis reveals that topically applied chemical optical clearing agents, specifically PEG‐400 combined with oleic acid and aqueous tartrazine, significantly reduce the skin optical attenuation coefficient. In contrast, mechanical compression proved ineffective, identifying chemical clearing as a superior strategy for optimizing ...

Non‐Uniform Programmable Photonic Waveguide Meshes

Laser &Photonics Reviews, Volume 20, Issue 14, 22 July 2026.
Integrating defect cells into uniform hexagonal waveguide meshes overcomes the fundamental spectral and temporal limitations of programmable photonics. By leveraging the Vernier effect through non‐uniform coupled cavities, this architecture achieves a tenfold increase in free spectral range and ultra‐fast sampling times, paving the way for next ...

A Study on Enhancing Stability and Conductivity of ZnO Through Controlled Doping

Advanced Theory and Simulations, Volume 9, Issue 6, June 2026.
First principles modelling reveals vanadium and indium as complementary tuning knobs in cubic ZnO, enabling controlled changes in optical absorption, dielectric screening, and frequency‐dependent conductivity. Moderate doping maximizes optoelectronic gain, while higher loading can trigger mechanical softening.

Broadband and Wide‐Angle Nonreciprocal Electromagnetic Transport via Gradient Permeability‐Near‐Zero Metastructures

Nanophotonics, Volume 15, Issue 9, 13 May 2026.
ABSTRACT Breaking time‐reversal symmetry to achieve broadband and wide‐angle nonreciprocity is critical in electromagnetic waves manipulation. While Epsilon‐Near‐Zero materials have revolutionized the control of Transverse Magnetic modes, realizing comparable broadband nonreciprocity for Transverse Electric (TE) modes remains a formidable challenge ...
