  1. Novel Ideas in Optics: From Advanced Materials to Revolutionary Applications

    13 Jan 2013 | | Contributor(s):: Vladimir M. Shalaev

    At the turn of the 21st century, the enormous progress in the fields of photonics, materials sciences, and nanofabrication resulted in the emergence of a new class of unique optical media - metamaterials. "Meta" in Greek means "beyond." Indeed, these new man-made optical structures pioneered by...

  2. Opening Remarks

    13 Jan 2013 | | Contributor(s):: Vladimir M. Shalaev

    This talk is part of the International Workshop "Novel Ideas in Optics: From Advanced Materials to Revolutionary Applications" hosted by Purdue University.

  3. Optical Hyperspace: Light in Hyperbolic Materials

    14 Jan 2020 | | Contributor(s):: Evgenii Narimanov

    Hyperbolic metamaterias are strongly anisotropic composite media that behave as either metals or dielectrics in different directions. They can be fabricated n many different ways, such as metallic layers that are separated from each other by thin dielectric spacers, or using arrays of parallel...

  4. Photonic Metamaterials: From Linear to Nonlinear Optics

    14 Dec 2010 | | Contributor(s):: Natalia Litchinitser

    Metamaterials open unparalleled opportunities for "engineering" previously inaccessible values of refractive indices from positive to near-zero and even negative values, and new avenues for light manipulation. While an enormous progress has been made in the field of linear optics of uniform...

  5. Plasmonic Metamaterials: Unusual Optics and Applications

    28 Feb 2008 | | Contributor(s):: Igor Smolyaninov

    Surface plasmon-polaritons (or plasmons) are collective excitations of the conduction electrons and the electromagnetic field on the surface of such good metals as gold and silver. Near the frequency of surface plasmon resonance plasmons may perceive regular dielectrics as negative index...

  6. Quantum Control of Light and Matter International Workshop

    14 Oct 2015 | | Contributor(s):: Vladimir M. Shalaev, Chris H Greene

    This kickoff workshop brings together world-class experts specializing in diverse areas such as Quantum Information & Computing, Quantum Nanophotonics & Metamaterials, as well as Quantum aspects of Atomic and Molecular Optics and Atom-like Solid State Systems.

  7. Quantum Optics on a Nonlinear Chip

    08 May 2018 | | Contributor(s):: Alexander Solntsev

    Bringing the concepts of quantum entanglement and optical nonlinearity together, and integrating them on a chip, opens a way to efficient generation of entangled photons and entanglement.

  8. Routing Light with Nematicons: Light Localization and Steering in Liquid Crystals

    10 Oct 2007 | | Contributor(s):: Gaetano Assanto

    Nematic liquid crystals support optical spatial solitons via light-induced molecular reorientation. Such all-optical waveguides can channel a signal towards a destination, hence permitting signal routing. Owing to the inherent anisotropy of nematic liquid crystals, molecular orientation and...

  9. Taming Light and Electrons with Metamaterials

    11 Jul 2011 | | Contributor(s):: Nader Engheta

    In recent years, in my group we have been working on various aspects of metamaterials and plasmonic nano-optics. We have introduced and been developing the concept of "metatronics", i.e. metamaterial-inspired optical nanocircuitry, in which the three fields of "electronics", "photonics" and...

  10. Topological Materials as Platforms for New Particles and Electromagnetic Responses

    06 Jun 2019 | | Contributor(s):: Joel Moore

    We then turn to how topological Weyl and Dirac semimetals can show unique electromagnetic responses; we argue that in linear response the main observable effect solves an old problem via the orbital moment of Bloch electrons, and how in nonlinear optics there should be a new quantized effect,...
