Quasinormal modes expansions for nanoresonators made of absorbing dielectric materials: study of the role of static modes
Christophe Sauvan
The interaction of light with photonic resonators is determined by the eigenmodes of the system. Modal theories based on quasinormal modes provide a natural tool to calculate and u…
Upper bound for light absorption assisted by a nanoantenna
Emilie Sakat, Léo Wojszvzyk, Jean-Jacques Greffet +2
We study light absorption by a dipolar absorber in a given environment, which can be a nanoantenna or any complex inhomogeneous medium. From first-principle calculations, we derive…
Bound states in the continuum in symmetric and asymmetric photonic crystal slabs
Anton I. Ovcharenko, Cédric Blanchard, Jean-Paul Hugonin +1
We develop a semi-analytical model to describe bound states in the continuum (BICs) in photonic crystal slabs. We model leaky modes supported by photonic crystal slabs as a transve…
Light interaction with photonic and plasmonic resonances
Philippe Lalanne, Wei Yan, Kevin Vynck +2
In this Review, the theory and applications of optical micro and nanoresonators are presented from the underlying concept of their natural resonances, the so-called quasi-normal mo…
Theory of fishnet negative-index optical metamaterials
J. Yang, C. Sauvan, H. T. Liu +1
We theoretically study fishnet metamaterials at optical frequencies. In contrast to earlier works, we provide a microscopic description by tracking the transversal and longitudinal…
