Perfect energy-feeding into strongly coupled systems and interferometric control of polariton absorption

Simone Zanotto, Francesco P. Mezzapesa, Federica Bianco +6

The ability to feed energy into a system, or - equivalently - to drive that system with an external input is a fundamental aspect of light-matter interaction. The key concept in ma…

Universal lineshapes at the crossover between weak and strong critical coupling in Fano-resonant coupled oscillators

Simone Zanotto, Alessandro Tredicucci

In this article we discuss a model describing key features concerning the lineshapes and the coherent absorption conditions in Fano-resonant dissipative coupled oscillators. The mo…

Metasurface reconfiguration through lithium ion intercalation in a transition metal oxide

Simone Zanotto, Alessandra Blancato, Annika Buchheit +4

In the latest years the optical engineer's toolbox has welcomed a new concept, the metasurface. In a metasurface, properly tailored material inclusions are able to reshape the elec…

Design of a hybrid silicon-plasmonic co-propagant integrated coherent perfect absorber

Simone Zanotto, Andrea Melloni

By a hybrid integration of plasmonic and dielectric waveguide concepts, it is shown that coherent perfect absorption can be achieved in a co-propagant coupler geometry. The device…

Photonic bands, superchirality, and inverse design of a chiral minimal metasurface

Simone Zanotto, Giacomo Mazzamuto, Francesco Riboli +4

Photonic band structures are a typical fingerprint of periodic optical structures, and are usually observed in spectroscopic quantities such as transmission, reflection and absorpt…

Saturation and bistability of defect-mode intersubband polaritons

Simone Zanotto, Federica Bianco, Giorgio Biasiol +2

In this article we report about linear and nonlinear optical properties of intersubband cavity polariton samples, where the resonant photonic mode is a defect state in a metallo-di…
