[Illinois] Signal Processing at Light Speed: Ultrashort Optical Pulse Generation with Arbitrary Waveforms
29 Jan 2016 | | Contributor(s):: Claire Mcghee
We aim to further improve early detection of cancer biomarkers, including metal ion and small molecules, using functional DNA as the selective component for photonic crystal surface enhanced Raman scattering (PC-SERS) based detection. It is known that gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) display SERS...

[Illinois] Ultra-thin Plasmonic Metasurfaces
05 Oct 2015 | | Contributor(s):: Mikhail A. Kats
Most optical components can be grouped under the umbrella of "bulk optics"; i.e. they generally have a non-negligible thickness compared to the wavelength of light. This is the case for prisms, lenses, etc., all of which must be of sufficient thickness such that light accumulates a...

Is Graphene Alone in the Universe?
30 Nov 2012 | | Contributor(s):: Jacob B. Khurgin
In this talk we show that many heterostructures based on III-V (InGaSb) and II-VI (HgCdTe) semiconductors can be engineered to have all the above properties nearly indistinguishable from those of graphene, while adding certain degree of versatility, such as ability to have not only 2-dimensional,...
