Minireview on Disordered Optical Metasurfaces

P. Lalanne, A. Dmitriev, C. Rockstuhl +2

The use of coherent wave phenomena to enhance device performance is a cornerstone of modern optics. In juxtaposition to (locally) periodic metasurfaces, their disordered counterpar…

Tuning Dipolar and Multipolar Resonances of Chiral Silicon Nanostructures for Control of Near field Superchirality

Dominic J. P. Koyroytsaltis-McQuire, Rahul Kumar, Tamas Javorfi +3

Chiral materials display a property called optical activity, which is the capability to interact differentially with left and right circularly polarised light. This leads to the ab…

Attomole enantiomeric discrimination of small molecules using an achiral SERS reporter and chiral plasmonics

Shailendra K Chaubeya, Rahul Kumar, Paula Laborda +6

Biologically important molecules span a size range from very large biomacromolecules, such as proteins to small metabolite molecules. Consequently, spectroscopic techniques which c…

Towards nanophotonic optical isolation via inverse design of energy transfer in non-reciprocal media

Claire M. Cisowski, Madeline C. Waller, Robert Bennett

In this work we generalise the adjoint method of inverse design to nonreciprocal media. As a test case, we use three-dimensional topology optimization via the level-set method to o…

High-power sub-picosecond filamentation at 1.03 μm with high repetition rates between 10 and 100 kHz

Robin Löscher, Victor Moreno, Dionysis Adamou +5

Filamentation has extensively been explored and is well understood at repetition rates <1 kHz due to the typical availability of multi-mJ laser systems at a moderate average power.…

Photon-efficient optical tweezers via wavefront shaping

Unė G. Būtaitė, Christina Sharp, Michael Horodynski +5

Optical tweezers enable non-contact trapping of micro-scale objects using light. Despite their widespread use, it is currently not known how tightly it is possible to three-dimensi…

Optically-triggered deterministic spiking regimes in nanostructure resonant tunnelling diode-photodetectors

Qusay Raghib Ali Al-Taai, Matěj Hejda, Weikang Zhang +4

This work reports a nanostructure resonant tunnelling diode-photodetector (RTD-PD) device and demonstrates its operation as a controllable, optically-triggered excitable spike gene…

On lines of constant polarisation in structured light beams

Stephen M. Barnett, Fiona C. Speirits, Joerg B. Goette

We show that Skyrmion field lines, constructed from the local Stokes parameters, trace out lines of constant optical polarisation.

Symmetry control of strong chiral light matter interactions in photonic nanocavities for efficient circularly polarised emission

Rahul Kumar, Ben Trodden, Anastasiia Klimash +6

Chiral excited electronic states of molecules have an intrinsic sense of handedness, or twist, and are the active component in energy efficient display technologies and in new phot…

Understanding the limits of remote focusing

Sharika Mohanan, Alexander D. Corbett

It has previously been demonstrated in both simulation and experiment that well aligned remote focusing microscopes exhibit residual spherical aberration outside the focal plane. I…

Roadmap on structured waves

K. Y. Bliokh, E. Karimi, M. J. Padgett +47

Structured waves are ubiquitous for all areas of wave physics, both classical and quantum, where the wavefields are inhomogeneous and cannot be approximated by a single plane wave.…
