Large tuning of the optical properties of nanoscale NdNiO3 via electron doping

Yeonghoon Jin, Teng Qu, Siddharth Kumar +6

We synthesized crystalline films of neodymium nickel oxide (NdNiO3), a perovskite quantum material, switched the films from a metal phase (intrinsic) into an insulator phase (elect…

Thermally-Switchable Metalenses Based on Quasi-Bound States in the Continuum

Stephanie C. Malek, Cheng-Chia Tsai, Nanfang Yu

Dynamic wavefront shaping with optical metasurfaces has presented a major challenge and inspired a large number of highly elaborate solutions. Here, we experimentally demonstrate t…

Directional free-space coupling from photonic crystal waveguides

Cheng-Chia Tsai, Jacob Mower, Dirk Englund

We present a general approach for coupling a specific mode in a planar photonic crystal (PC) waveguide to a desired free-space mode. We apply this approach to a W1 PC waveguide by…
