Description

When optical components are reduced to the nanoscale, they exhibit interesting properties that can be harnessed to create new devices. For example, imagine a block of material with thin layers of alternating materials. This creates a periodic arrangement of alternating dielectric constants, forming a "photonic crystal" that is analogous to the electronic crystals used in semiconductor devices. Photonic crystals, along with quantum dots and other devices patterned at the nanoscale, may form the basis for sensors and switches used in computers and telecommunications.

  1. Extreme Space-Time Optics & Quantum Meta-Photonics 



    16 Feb 2024 | | Contributor(s):: Vladimir M. Shalaev

    We first discuss all-optical modulation with single photons using electron avalanche, resulting in record-high nonlinearities. Then we show that transparent conducting oxides (TCOs) operating in the near-zero index (NZI) regime can provide strong single-cycle modulation, thus enabling novel...

  2. Modeling of P-N Junction Devices using Various Materials for Photovoltaic Applications Under Different Operating Environments

    06 Jul 2023 | | Contributor(s):: Sayan Roy

    Photovoltaic devices are typically two-, three- or multi-layer junction devices which can generate carriers on exposure to photon radiation. There are several essential device-specific factors and parameters which are required for accurate modeling and simulation of such devices. In this talk,...
