Colossal Cryogenic Electro‐Optic Response Through Metastability in Strained BaTiO3 Thin Films

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Utilizing the thermodynamic theory of optical properties, a colossal cryogenic electro‐optic response in BaTiO3 thin films is designed and demonstrated by stabilizing a low symmetry metastable monoclinic phase via epitaxial strain tuning with an electro‐optic response reaching ≈2516 pm V−1 at 5 K. This approach represents a new paradigm for engineering

A Nondestructive Testing Method for the Determination of the Complex Refractive Index Using Ultra Wideband Radar in Industrial Applications

open access: yesSensors, 2020
An ultra-wide band radar reflection measurement technique for industrial applications is introduced. A new method for determining the complex refractive index (or equivalently the relative permittivity) of objects with planar interfaces is presented. The

On the Interpretation of Synthetic Aperture Radar Images of Oceanic Phenomena: Past and Present

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2023
In 1978, the SEASAT satellite was launched, carrying the first civilian synthetic aperture radar (SAR). The mission was the monitoring of ocean: application to land was also studied.

Mode‐dependent Far‐field Radiation of Circularly Polarized Light by a Single Plasmonic Nanohelix

open access: yesAdvanced Optical Materials, Volume 13, Issue 8, March 13, 2025.
The numerical simulations explored the chiroptical response and far‐field radiation behaviors of single plasmonic nanoantennas transitioning into helical structures. This study highlights the ability of these plasmonic nanohelices to regulate the far‐field directionality of radiation power and circular polarization in plasmon‐exciton coupled systems ...

Quad-Polarimetric Multi-Scale Analysis of Icebergs in ALOS-2 SAR Data: A Comparison between Icebergs in West and East Greenland

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2020
Icebergs are ocean hazards which require extensive monitoring. Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) satellites can help with this, however, SAR backscattering is strongly influenced by the properties of icebergs, together with meteorological and environmental ...

Properties of Polarized Synchrotron Emission from Fluctuation Dynamo Action—II. Effects of Turbulence Driving in the ICM and Beam Smoothing

open access: yesGalaxies, 2021
Polarized synchrotron emission from the radio halos of diffuse intracluster medium (ICM) in galaxy clusters are yet to be observed. To investigate the expected polarization in the ICM, we use high resolution (1 kpc) magnetohydrodynamic simulations of ...

Complex Structured Light Generation Using Printed Liquid Crystal Droplets

open access: yesAdvanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
Inkjet‐printed liquid crystal droplets generate structured light beams with spatially varying polarization and phase. These include full Poincaré beam, vortex beam carrying orbital angular momentum, and beam with polarization singularities, offering a simple approach for compact structured light generation in optical manipulation, imaging, and ...

Landslide detection in mountainous forest areas using polarimetry and interferometric coherence

open access: yesEarth, Planets and Space, 2020
The cloud-free, wide-swath, day-and-night observation capability of synthetic aperture radar (SAR) has an important role in rapid landslide monitoring to reduce economic and human losses.
