Avalanche effect and gain saturation in high harmonic generation
Carles Serrat, David Roca, Josep M. Budesca +7
Optical amplifiers in all ranges of the electromagnetic spectrum exhibit two essential characteristics: i) the input signal during the propagation in the medium is multiplied by th…
Direct measurement of second-order coupling in a waveguide lattice
Robert Keil, Benedikt Pressl, René Heilmann +3
We measure the next-nearest-neighbour coupling in an array of coupled optical waveguides directly via an integrated eigenmode interferometer. In contrast to light propagation exper…
Magnetic hyperbolic optical metamaterials
Sergey S. Kruk, Zi Jing Wong, Ekaterina Pshenay-Severin +4
Strongly anisotropic media where the principal components of electric permittivity or magnetic permeability tensors have opposite signs are termed as hyperbolic media. Such media s…
Universal sign-control of coupling in tight-binding lattices
Robert Keil, Charles Poli, Matthias Heinrich +4
We present a method of locally inverting the sign of the coupling term in tight-binding systems, by means of inserting a judiciously designed ancillary site and eigenmode matching…
Efficient treatment of stacked metasurfaces for optimizing and enhancing the range of accessible optical functionalities
Christoph Menzel, Jan Sperrhake, Thomas Pertsch
We present, discuss and validate an adapted S-matrix formalism for an efficient, simplified treatment of stacked homogeneous periodically structured metasurfaces operated under nor…
Electromagnetic wave propagation in spatially homogeneous yet smoothly time-varying dielectric media
Armen G. Hayrapetyan, Jörg B. Götte, Karen K. Grigoryan +2
We explore the propagation and transformation of electromagnetic waves through spatially homogeneous yet smoothly time-dependent media within the framework of classical electrodyna…
Selective Strong-Field Enhancement and Suppression of Ionization with Short Laser Pulses
Nathan A. Hart, James Strohaber, Alexandre A. Kolomenskii +3
We experimentally demonstrate robust selective excitation and attenuation of atomic Rydberg level populations in sodium vapor (Na I) using intense laser pulses in the strong field…
Measuring the Aharonov-Anandan phase in photonics
Kai Wang, Steffen Weimann, Armando Perez-Leija +1
The Aharonov-Anandan phase is a description of the geometric nature in non-adiabatic cyclic evolutions of quantum states. Here we report on a measurement of the Aharonov-Anandan ph…
Selective higher order fiber mode excitation using a monolithic setup of a phase plate at a fiber facet
Johannes Wilde, Christian Schulze, Robert Brüning +2
Controlling the modal content coupled into an optical fiber can be desireable in many situations, e.g. for adjusting the sensitivity of the guided field distribution to external pe…
Characterization of a circular optical nanoantenna by nonlinear photoemission electron microscopy
Thomas Kaiser, Matthias Falkner, Jing Qi +5
We report on the investigation of an advanced circular plasmonic nanoantenna under ultrafast excitation using nonlinear photoemission electron microscopy (PEEM) under near-normal i…
Terawatt-level few-cycle mid-IR pulses through nonlinear self-compression in bulk
V. Shumakova, P. Malevich, S. Ališauskas +5
The physics of strong-field applications requires driver laser pulses that are both energetic and extremely short. Whereas optical amplifiers, laser and parametric, boost the energ…
Fiber propagation of vector modes
Bienvenu Ndagano, Robert Bruning, Melanie McLaren +2
Here we employ both dynamic and geometric phase control of light to produce radially modulated vector-vortex modes, the natural modes of optical fibers. We then measure these modes…
Cancellation of lateral displacement noise of 3-port gratings for coupling light to cavities
Melanie Meinders, Stefanie Kroker, Amrit Pal Singh +4
Reflection gratings enable light coupling to optical cavities without transmission through substrates. Gratings that have three ports and are mounted in second-order Littrow config…
Birefringence Measurements on Crystalline Silicon
Christoph Krüger, Daniel Heinert, Alexander Khalaidovski +4
Crystalline silicon has been proposed as a new test mass material in third generation gravitational wave detectors such as the Einstein Telescope (ET). Birefringence can reduce the…
The Effect of Orbital Angular Momentum on Nondiffracting Ultrashort Optical Pulses
Marco Ornigotti, Claudio Conti, Alexander Szameit
We introduce a new class of nondiffracting optical pulses possessing orbital angular momentum. By generalizing the X-waves solution of the Maxwell equation, we discover the couplin…
