Single-mode instability in standing-wave lasers: The quantum cascade laser as a self-pumped parametric oscillator
Tobias S. Mansuripur, Camille Vernet, Paul Chevalier +13
We report the observation of a clear single-mode instability threshold in continuous-wave Fabry-Perot quantum cascade lasers (QCLs). The instability is characterized by the appeara…
Reply to "Comment on 'Theoretical analysis of the force on the end face of a nano-filament exerted by an outgoing light pulse'"
Masud Mansuripur, Armis R. Zakharian
We respond to a Comment on our paper [Physical Review A 80, 023823 (2009)], which appears to have stemmed from a misunderstanding of the various energy-momentum tensors of classica…
What is wrong with the interpretation of recent nano-filament experiments?
Masud Mansuripur, Armis R. Zakharian
In a recent paper, W. She, J. Yu and R. Feng reported the slight deformations observed upon transmission of a light pulse through a short length of a silica glass nano-filament. Re…
Theoretical analysis of the force on the end face of a nano-filament exerted by an outgoing light pulse
Masud Mansuripur, Armis R. Zakharian
The slight deformations observed upon transmission of a light pulse through a short length of a silica glass nano-filament offer the possibility of determining the momentum of ligh…
Whence the Minkowski Momentum?
Masud Mansuripur, Armis R. Zakharian
Electromagnetic waves carry the Abraham momentum, whose density is given by p_EM = S(r,t)/c^2. Here S(r,t) = E(r,t)\timesH(r,t) is the Poynting vector at point r in space and insta…
Energy, Momentum, and Force in Classical Electrodynamics: Application to Negative-index Media
Masud Mansuripur, Armis R. Zakharian
The classical theory of electromagnetism is based on Maxwell's macroscopic equations, an energy postulate, a momentum postulate, and a generalized form of the Lorentz law of force.…
