Semiconductor-based superlens for sub-wavelength resolution below the dif-fraction limit at extreme ultraviolet frequencies

M. A. Vincenti, A. D Orazio, M. G. Cappeddu +3

We theoretically demonstrate negative refraction and sub-wavelength resolution below the diffraction limit in the UV and extreme UV ranges using semiconductors. The metal-like re-s…

Dispersion and fidelity in quantum interferometry

D. S. Simon, A. V. Sergienko, T. B. Bahder

We consider Mach-Zehnder and Hong-Ou-Mandel interferometers with nonclassical states of light as input, and study the effect that dispersion inside the interferometer has on the se…

Comparison of Quantum and Classical Local-field Effects on Two-Level Atoms in a Dielectric

Michael E. Crenshaw

The macroscopic quantum theory of the electromagnetic field in a dielectric medium interacting with a dense collection of embedded two-level atoms fails to reproduce a result that…

On the Inhibition of Linear Absorption in Opaque Materials Using Phase-Locked Harmonic Generation

Marco Centini, Vito Roppo, Eugenio Fazio +7

We theoretically predict and experimentally demonstrate inhibition of linear absorption for phase and group velocity mismatched second and third harmonic generation in strongly abs…

Ultra-slow light pulses in a nonlinear metamaterial

Giuseppe D'Aguanno, Nadia Mattiucci, Mark J. Bloemer

We find the analytical expression for the threshold intensity necessary to launch ultra-slow light pulses in a metamaterial with simultaneous cubic electric and magnetic nonlineari…

Enhanced Transmission and Second Harmonic Generation from Subwavelength Slits on Metal Substrates

M. A. Vincenti, M. De Sario, V. Petruzzelli +7

We theoretically investigate second harmonic generation that originates from the nonlinear, magnetic Lorentz force term from single and multiple apertures carved on thick, opaque m…
