Group-IV midinfrared plasmonics [PDF]
The use of heavily doped semiconductors to achieve plasma frequencies in the mid-IR has been recently proposed as a promising way to obtain high-quality and tunable plasmonic materials. We introduce a plasmonic platform based on epitaxial n-type Ge grown

Enhanced transmission of electromagnetic waves through split-ring resonator-shaped apertures [PDF]
The design of aperture shape is a promising approach for enhanced transmission through a subwavelength aperture. We designed split-ring-resonator (SRR)-shaped apertures in order to increase the transmission through subwavelength apertures by making use ...

Impact of GST thickness on GST-loaded silicon waveguides for optimal optical switching
Phase-change integrated photonics has emerged as a new platform for developing photonic integrated circuits by integrating phase-change materials like GeSbTe (GST) onto the silicon photonics platform. The thickness of the GST patch that is usually placed

Multiple light scattering and optomechanical forces [PDF]
When off-resonant light travels through a transparent medium, light scattering is the primary optical process to occur. Multiple-particle events are relatively rare in optically dilute systems: scattering generally takes place at individual atomic or ...

Strong-coupling of WSe2 in ultra-compact plasmonic nanocavities at room temperature
Two-dimensional materials offer the prospect of excitonic devices operating at room-temperature. Here, Kleemann et al. demonstrate that by tuning the number of WSe2 layers in a nanoparticle-on-mirror geometry, room-temperature plasmon strong-coupling can
