Measurement of Thermo-Elastic Deformation of an Optic using a Polarization Based Shearing Interferometer

open access: yes, 2012
A shearing interferometer is presented which uses polarization control to shear the wavefront and to modulate the interference pattern. The shear is generated by spatial walk-off in a birefringent crystal. By adjusting the orientation of the birefringent

Scalable Lithium Niobate Nanoimprinting for Nonlinear Metalenses

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
A broadband polycrystalline lithium niobate platform is developed for highly versatile and scalable fabrication of nonlinear metasurfaces. This work demonstrates simultaneous second harmonic generation and wavefront‐shaping via a metalens on this platform.

Neuromorphic Light‐Responsive Organic Matter for in Materia Reservoir Computing

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
In this work we show that light‐responsive adaptive organic matter can store and process information at the matter level, and emulate neuromorphic functionalities such as short term memory, long term memory and visual memory. Besides demonstrating that material dynamics can be exploited for spatio‐temporal event detection and motion perception, we show

Computational near-field and far-field parameter measurement of high-power lasers using modified coherent modulation imaging

open access: yesHigh Power Laser Science and Engineering
Accurate characterization of high-power laser parameters, especially the near-field and far-field distributions, is crucial for inertial confinement fusion experiments.

Adaptability analysis of travelling wavefront protection in LCC‐UHVDC transmission lines

open access: yesIET Generation, Transmission & Distribution, 2023
The existing relay protections for line‐commutated converter (LCC)‐ultra high voltage DC (UHVDC) transmission lines are insufficient in protection sensitivity and operation speed. The travelling wavefront fault distance information can be used to improve

Motion of Wavefronts in Semiconductor Superlattices [PDF]

open access: yesPhys. Rev. E 64, 036204 (2001), 2002
An analysis of wavefront motion in weakly coupled doped semiconductor superlattices is presented. If a dimensionless doping is sufficiently large, the superlattice behaves as a discrete system presenting front propagation failure and the wavefronts can be described near the threshold currents $J_i$ ($i=1,2$) at which they depin and move.

Advancement in Colloidal Metasurfaces: Approaches for Scalable Photonic Devices

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
This perspective explores colloidal metasurfaces composed of plasmonic and emitting nanoparticles assembled by laser interference lithography and template‐assisted self‐assembly methods. Precise design strategies achieve directional emission, low‐threshold lasing, and tunable photonic bandgaps.

Wavefront singularities associated with the conical point in elastic solids with cubic symmetry [PDF]

open access: yesWave Motion 44(6), 513-527, 2007., 2007
The wavefronts from a point source in a solid with cubic symmetry are examined with particular attention paid to the contribution from the conical points of the slowness surface. An asymptotic solution is developed that is uniform across the edge of the cone in real space, the interior of which contains the plane lid wavefront analyzed by Burridge ...

The coronagraphic Modal Wavefront Sensor: a hybrid focal-plane sensor for the high-contrast imaging of circumstellar environments [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The raw coronagraphic performance of current high-contrast imaging instruments is limited by the presence of a quasi-static speckle (QSS) background, resulting from instrumental non-common path errors (NCPEs).

How to Manufacture Photonic Metamaterials

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Metamaterials boast applications such as invisibility and “hyperlenses” with resolution beyond the diffraction limit, but these applications haven’t been exploited in earnest and the market for them hasn’t grown much likely because facile and economical methods for fabricating them without defect has not emerged.
