Harnessing the natural resonances of time-varying dispersive interfaces

Carlo Rizza, Maria Antonietta Vincenti, Giuseppe Castaldi +3

Space-time modulation of electromagnetic parameters offers novel exciting possibilities for advanced field manipulations. In this study, we explore wave scattering from a time-vary…

Below the Surface: Unraveling the Intricacies of the Nonlinear Optical Properties of Aluminum through Bound Electrons

M. Scalora, K. Hallman, S. Mukhopadhyay +8

By uncovering novel aspects of second harmonic generation in aluminum we show that there are unusual and remarkable consequences of resonant absorption, namely an unexpectedly crit…

Revealing spoofing of classical radar using quantum noise

Jonathan N. Blakely, Shawn D. Pethel, Kurt Jacobs

Electromagnetic remote sensing technologies such as radar can be mislead by targets that generate spoof pulses. Typically, a would-be spoofer must make measurements to characterize…

Temperature and density dependence of line profiles of sodium perturbed by helium

N. F. Allard, K. Myneni, J. N. Blakely +1

Ultracool stellar atmospheres show absorption by alkali resonance lines severely broadened by collisions with neutral perturbers. In the coolest and densest atmospheres, such as th…

Quantum Illumination with a Parametrically Amplified Idler

Jonathan N. Blakely

Quantum illumination uses a quantum state of the electromagnetic field to detect the presence of a target against a bright background more sensitively than any classical state. Mos…

Maximizing performance of quantum cascade laser-pumped molecular lasers

Fan Wang, Steven G. Johnson, Henry O. Everitt

Quantum cascade laser (QCL)-pumped molecular lasers (QPMLs) have recently been introduced as a new source of powerful (>1 mW), tunable (>1 THz), narrow-band (<10 kHz), continuous-w…
