Real-time THz ptychography using an optically modulated aperture

Diksha Garg, Anil Kumar, Nicholas E. Grant +6

Ptychography allows ordinary cameras to perform both quantitative phase and intensity imaging. However, the requirement for relative object to probe motion and high measurement cou…

A microwave super-resolution imaging approach towards breast cancer margin mapping

Harry Penketh, Sonal Saxena, Michal Mrnka +10

Accurate characterisation of margins in excised breast cancer tumours is critical to the success of surgical interventions. Yet margin status is typically confirmed post-operativel…

Scattering in Time-Varying Drude-Lorentz Models

Bryce Dixon, Calvin M. Hooper, Ian R. Hooper +1

Motivated by recent experiments, the theoretical study of wave propagation in time varying materials is of current interest. Although significant in nearly all such experiments, ma…

Quasi Normal Modes in Dispersive Photonic Time-Crystals

Calvin M. Hooper, Ian R. Hooper, Simon A. R. Horsley

Quasinormal modes characterise the transient response of static optical cavities. Here, we introduce the notion of a Floquet quasinormal mode to describe transient responses in pho…

The 2024 Active Metamaterials Roadmap

Simon A. Pope, Diane J. Roth, Aakash Bansal +27

Active metamaterials are engineered structures that possess novel properties that can be changed after the point of manufacture. Their novel properties arise predominantly from the…

Symmetry-Protected Lossless Modes in Dispersive Time-Varying Media

Calvin M. Hooper, James R. Capers, Ian R. Hooper +1

We give an exact application of a recently developed, operator-based theory of wave propagation in dispersive, time-varying media. Using this theory we find that the usual symmetry…
