Maximum Electromagnetic Local Density of States via Material Structuring
Pengning Chao, Rodrick Kuate Defo, Sean Molesky +1
The electromagnetic local density of states (LDOS) is crucial to many aspects of photonics engineering, from enhancing emission of photon sources to radiative heat transfer and pho…
Physical limits on electromagnetic response
Pengning Chao, Benjamin Strekha, Rodrick Kuate Defo +2
Photonic devices play an increasingly important role in advancing physics and engineering, and while improvements in nanofabrication and computational methods have driven dramatic…
-Operator Limits on Optical Communication: Metaoptics, Computation, and Input-Output Transformations
Sean Molesky, Pengning Chao, Jewel Mohajan +3
We present an optimization framework based on Lagrange duality and the scattering operator of electromagnetism to construct limits on the possible features that may be…
Hierarchical Mean-Field Operator Bounds on Electromagnetic Scattering: Upper Bounds on Near-Field Radiative Purcell Enhancement
Sean Molesky, Pengning Chao, Alejandro W. Rodriguez
We show how the central equality of scattering theory, the definition of the operator, can be used to generate hierarchies of mean-field constraints that act as natura…
Inverse-designed photon extractors for optically addressable defect qubits
Srivatsa Chakravarthi, Pengning Chao, Christian Pederson +6
Solid-state defect qubit systems with spin-photon interfaces show great promise for quantum information and metrology applications. Photon collection efficiency, however, presents…
Global operator bounds on electromagnetic scattering: Upper bounds on far-field cross sections
Sean Molesky, Pengning Chao, Weiliang Jin +1
We present a method based on the scattering operator, and conservation of net real and reactive power, to provide physical bounds on any electromagnetic design objecti…
