The Temporal Gearbox
Bahram Jalali, Jacky C. K. Chan, Ata Mahjoubfar +2
We are inspired by mechanical gearboxes and demonstrate its analog counterpart in optics. We use nonlinear dispersion modes as "gears" to overcome the mismatch between the ultrahig…
Controlling and Streaking Nanotip Photoemission by Enhanced Single-cycle Terahertz Pulses
L. Wimmer, G. Herink, D. R. Solli +3
The active control of matter by strong electromagnetic fields is of growing importance, with applications all across the optical spectrum from the extreme-ultraviolet to the far-in…
Rare frustration of optical supercontinuum generation
D. R. Solli, C. Ropers, B. Jalali
Extremely large, rare events arise in various systems, often representing a defining character of their behavior. Another class of extreme occurrences, unexpected failures, may app…
Periodically-Poled Silicon [Updated]
Nick K. Hon, Kevin K. Tsia, Daniel R. Solli +1
We propose a new class of photonic devices based on periodic stress fields in silicon that enable second-order nonlinearity as well as quasi-phase matching. Periodically-poled sili…
Inverse Raman Scattering in Silicon
D. R. Solli, P. Koonath, B. Jalali
Stimulated Raman scattering is a well-known nonlinear process that can be harnessed to produce optical gain in a wide variety of media. This effect has been used to produce the fir…
Limiting Nature of Continuum Generation in Silicon
Prakash Koonath, Daniel R. Solli, Bahram Jalali
Spectral broadening in silicon is studied numerically as well as experimentally. Temporal dynamics of the free carriers generated during the propagation of optical pulses, through…
