Purely Equatorial Lasing in Spherical Liquid Crystal Polymer Microlasers with Bipolar Refractive Index Profile

Advanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
Spherical liquid crystal polymer microlasers with a bipolar configuration confine lasing to a single equatorial plane, allowing precise control over where the laser emission is generated. The anisotropic refractive index profile additionally lifts the energy degeneracy of azimuthal whispering gallery modes, which causes a characteristic splitting into ...

Micromachined Double‐Membrane Mechanically Tunable Metamaterial for Thermal Infrared Filtering

Advanced Photonics Research, Volume 6, Issue 5, May 2025.
Herein, a mechanically tunable double‐layer plasmonic metamaterial leveraging the extraordinary optical transmission effect observed in subwavelength arrays of openings within thin metal layers is presented. The concept is experimentally validated by integrating the proposed metamaterial structure into an electrostatic parallel‐plate actuator to create
