Automated Discovery and Optimization of 3D Topological Photonic Crystals
Samuel Kim, Thomas Christensen, Steven G. Johnson +1
Topological photonic crystals have received considerable attention for their ability to manipulate and guide light in unique ways. They are typically designed by hand based on care…
Free-electron-light interactions in nanophotonics
Charles Roques-Carmes, Steven E. Kooi, Yi Yang +7
When impinging on optical structures or passing in their vicinity, free electrons can spontaneously emit electromagnetic radiation, a phenomenon generally known as cathodoluminesce…
Designing Structures that Maximize Spatially Averaged Surface-Enhanced Raman Spectra
Wenjie Yao, Francesc Verdugo, Henry O. Everitt +2
We present a general framework for inverse design of nanopatterned surfaces that maximize spatially averaged surface-enhanced Raman (SERS) spectra from molecules distributed random…
Efficient inverse design of large-area metasurfaces for incoherent light
Raphaël Pestourie, Wenjie Yao, Boubacar Kanté +1
Incoherent light is ubiquitous, yet designing optical devices that can handle its random nature is very challenging, since directly averaging over many incoherent incident beams ca…
Nonlinear exceptional-point lasing with ab-initio Maxwell-Bloch theory
Mohammed Benzaouia, A. D. Stone, Steven G. Johnson
We present a general analysis for finding and characterizing nonlinear exceptional point (EP) lasers above threshold, using steady-state ab-initio Maxwell-Bloch equations. For a sy…
Inverse-Designed Meta-Optics with Spectral-Spatial Engineered Response to Mimic Color Perception
Chris Munley, Wenchao Ma, Johannes E. Fröch +7
Meta-optics have rapidly become a major research field within the optics and photonics community, strongly driven by the seemingly limitless opportunities made possible by controll…
