Implementing strong interference in ultrathin film top absorbers for tandem solar cells

Yifat Piekner, Hen Dotan, Anton Tsyganok +4

Strong interference in ultrathin film semiconductor absorbers on metallic back reflectors has been shown to enhance the light harvesting efficiency of solar cell materials. However…

Optical coherence transfer mediated by free electrons

Ofer Kfir, Valerio Di Giulio, F. Javier García de Abajo +1

We investigate theoretically the quantum-coherence properties of the cathodoluminescence (CL) emission produced by a temporally modulated electron beam. Specifically, we consider t…

Probing chirality with inelastic electron-light scattering

Tyler R. Harvey, Jan-Wilke Henke, Ofer Kfir +4

Circular dichroism spectroscopy is an essential technique for understanding molecular structure and magnetic materials, but spatial resolution is limited by the wavelength of light…

Controlling free electrons with optical whispering-gallery modes

Ofer Kfir, Hugo Lourenço-Martins, Gero Storeck +5

Free-electron beams serve as uniquely versatile probes of microscopic structure and composition, and have repeatedly revolutionized atomic-scale imaging, from solid-state physics t…

Entanglements of electrons and cavity-photons in the strong coupling regime

Ofer Kfir

This work sets a road-map towards an experimental realization of strong coupling between free-electrons and photons, and analytically explores entanglement phenomena that emerge in…
