Polariton Nanophotonics using Phase Change Materials
, 2019 Polaritons formed by the coupling of light and material excitations such as plasmons, phonons, or excitons enable light-matter interactions at the nanoscale beyond what is currently possible with conventional optics.

Materials Today, 2004 Paras N. Prasad's new book expands on his short course for photonics-oriented conferences to give a broad and comprehensive overview of nanophotonics in an informal and accessible style. It could also be used as a text for an introductory graduate-student-level seminar, says Naomi J. Halas .

Programming Defects and Cavities into Colloidal Crystals Engineered With DNA
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Seed‐mediated crystallization is adapted for colloidal crystals to design cavities and defect architectures through chemically programmed DNA sequences and appropriate seed particle geometry. This synthetic approach combines tenets from both atomic and colloidal crystallization to deliberately control defect formation in superlattices and enables the ...

Supersymmetry in the time domain and its applications in optics
Nature Communications, 2020 Supersymmetric quantum mechanics enables the description of phenomena exhibiting a supersymmetry only in the space domain. Here, the authors show an underlying time-domain supersymmetry exists in optics, acoustics, and elasticity, and study its ...

Temperature Dependence of a Sub-wavelength Compact Graphene Plasmon-Slot Modulator
, 2017 We investigate a plasmonic electro-optic modulator with an extinction ratio exceeding 1 dB/um by engineering the optical mode to be in-plane with the graphene layer, and show how lowering the operating temperature enables steeper switching.

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Observation and detection of neurotransmitter dynamics in aqueous system has been hurdle for analytical fields due to its weak and reversible nature. A terahertz‐nanodisc metasurface which implements comprehensive detection over conformational change and selective sensing is introduced. Utilizing the THz regime photonics and biomimetic environment with

Low-Power Operation in a Silicon Switch Based on an Asymmetric Mach–Zehnder Interferometer
IEEE Photonics Journal, 2015 Mach-Zehnder interferometer (MZI) structures are widely used as optical switches in photonic integrated circuits. However, power consumption is still the key parameter to make such devices practical in the silicon platform, particularly for those based ...

High‐Performance Phototransistor Based on a 2D Polybenzimidazole Polymer
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.A crystalline 2D polybenzimidazole polymer (2DPBI), incorporating a porphyrin‐based π‐system linked via 1,3‐diazole units, is synthesized on the water surface over large areas. The 2DPBI thin‐film exhibits high charge carrier mobility (≈240 cm2 V−1 s−1, measured by terahertz spectroscopy), strong photoresponse, and band‐like transport, enabling ...
