Optically Incoherent Photonic Mutual Information
Francis J. Chen, Alessio Amaolo, Pengning Chao +3
While traditional evaluations of optical information transfer rely on disjointed abstractions to bridge electromagnetic propagation, coherence, and communication theory, we introdu…
Bounds as blueprints: towards optimal and accelerated photonic inverse design
Pengning Chao, Alessio Amaolo, Sean Molesky +1
Our ability to structure materials at the nanoscale has, and continues to, enable key advances in optical control. In pursuit of optimal photonic designs, substantial progress has…
Maximum Shannon Capacity of Photonic Structures
Alessio Amaolo, Pengning Chao, Benjamin Strekha +4
Information transfer through electromagnetic waves is an important problem that touches a variety of technologically relevant applications, including computing and telecommunicatio…
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…
