Subwavelength-Grating Metamaterial Structures for Silicon Photonic Devices [PDF]
Segmenting silicon waveguides at the subwave-length scale produce an equivalent homogenous material. The geometry of the waveguide segments provides precise control over modal confinement, effective index, dispersion and birefringence, thereby opening up new approaches to design devices with unprecedented performance.

[INVITED] Subwavelength structures for silicon photonics biosensing
Silicon photonic biosensors hold the potential for highly accurate, yet low cost point-of-care devices. Maximizing the sensitivity of the sensing chips while reducing the complexity and cost of the read-out system is pivotal to realize this potential. Here we present an extensive analysis, both from a practical and a theoretical perspective, of current

Gallium nanostructure fabrication by irradiation with femtosecond laser [PDF]
Gallium surfaces were irradiated with a 350 fs, 1040 nm femtosecond laser while submerged in liquid nitrogen, producing laser-induced periodic surface structures (LIPSS) spanning multiple length scales. Scanning electron microscopy reveals a hierarchical

Subwavelength structured silicon waveguides and photonic devices
Subwavelength structures such as subwavelength gratings (SWGs) and subwavelength metamaterials are capable of tailoring the optical properties of materials and controlling the flow of light at the nanoscale.

Femtosecond laser-induced periodic subwavelength and deep-subwavelength structures (SWS; DSWS) have attracted attention due to their subdiffraction resolution of surface and inner volume patterning. Understanding of the richness of laser–matter interaction during formation of SWS and DSWS is another quest which can help to find control for nanoscale ...

Ag-Yb Alloy-Novel Tunable Plasmonic Material
Metals are commonly used in plasmonic devices because of their strong plasmonic property. However, such properties are not easily tuned. For applications such as spatial light modulators and beam steering, tunable plasmonic properties are essential, and ...

Subwavelength structures for taper waveguides
Abstract In Photonic Integrated Circuits (PICs) it is often necessary some sort of mismatch adaptation between waveguides of different cross-sections. There are several instances of such a designing constraint, being the vertical coupling between the PIC and an optical fibre probably the most representative of all examples.

Single-Cycle Gap Soliton in a Subwavelength Structure [PDF]
We demonstrate that a single sub-cycle optical pulse can be generated when a pulse with a few optical cycles penetrates through resonant two-level dense media with a subwavelength structure. The single-cycle gap soliton phenomenon in the full Maxwell-Bloch equations without the frame of slowly varying envelope and rotating wave approximations is ...
