Quantum cascade laser roadmap

Carlo Silvestri, Aleksandar D. Rakić, Dragan Indjin +46

Quantum cascade lasers (QCLs) are unipolar semiconductor lasers first demonstrated in 1994. Since then, they have played a central role in advancing mid-infrared and terahertz phot…

Probes for Ultrasensitive THz Nanoscopy

Curdin Maissen, Shu Chen, Elizaveta Nikulina +2

Scattering-type scanning near-field microscopy (s-SNOM) at terahertz (THz) frequencies could become a highly valuable tool for studying a variety of phenomena of both fundamental a…

Understanding the image contrast of material boundaries in IR nanoscopy reaching 5 nm spatial resolution

Stefan Mastel, Alexander A. Govyadinov, Curdin Maissen +3

Scattering-type scanning near-field optical microscopy (s-SNOM) allows for nanoscale resolved Infrared (IR) and Terahertz (THz) imaging, and thus has manifold applications ranging…

Theoretical and numerical investigation of the size-dependent optical effects in metal nanoparticles

Alexander A. Govyadinov, George Y. Panasyuk, John C. Schotland +1

We further develop the theory of quantum finite-size effects in metallic nanoparticles, which was originally formulated by Hache, Ricard and Flytzanis [J. Opt. Soc. Am. B 3, 1647 (…

Phaseless three-dimensional optical nano-imaging

Alexander A. Govyadinov, George Y. Panasyuk, John C. Schotland

We propose a method for optical nano-imaging in which the structure of a three-dimensional inhomogeneous medium may be recovered from far-field power measurements. Neither phase co…
