Guiding light via geometric phases
Sergei Slussarenko, Alessandro Alberucci, Chandroth P. Jisha +4
Known methods for transverse confinement and guidance of light can be grouped into a few basic mechanisms, the most common being metallic reflection, total internal reflection and…
Walk-off-induced modulation instability, temporal pattern formation, and frequency comb generation in cavity-enhanced second-harmonic generation
F. Leo, T. Hansson, I. Ricciardi +4
We derive a time-domain mean-field equation to model the full temporal and spectral dynamics of light in singly resonant cavity-enhanced second-harmonic generation systems. We show…
Statistical mechanics models for multimode lasers and random lasers
F. Antenucci, A. Crisanti, M. Ibáñez Berganza +2
We review recent statistical mechanical approaches to multimode laser theory. The theory has proved very effective to describe standard lasers. We refer of the mean field theory fo…
Nonlinear Gamow vectors, shock waves and irreversibility in optically nonlocal media
Silvia Gentilini, Maria Chiara Braidotti, Giulia Marcucci +2
Dispersive shock waves dominate wave-breaking phenomena in Hamiltonian systems. In the absence of loss, these highly irregular and disordered waves are potentially reversible. Howe…
Sub-kHz linewidth narrowing of a mid-infrared OPO idler frequency by direct cavity stabilization
I. Ricciardi, S. Mosca, M. Parisi +4
We stabilize the idler frequency of a singly-resonant optical parametric oscillator directly to the resonance of a mid-infrared Fabry-Pérot reference cavity. This is accomplished b…
Point-focus spectral splitting solar concentrator for multiple cells concentrating photovoltaic system
Carlo Maragliano, Matteo Chiesa, Marco Stefancich
In this paper we present and experimentally validate a low-cost design of a spectral splitting concentrator for the efficient conversion of solar energy. The optical device consist…
