Coexistence of local and nonlocal shock waves in nanomaterials
Ilaria Gianani, Silvia Gentilini, Iole Venditti +3
High-performing nanomaterials are paramount for advanced photonic technologies, like sensing, lasing, imaging, data storage, processing, and medical and biological applications. Me…
Replica symmetry breaking in random lasers: experimental measurement of the overlap distribution
Claudio Conti, Neda Ghofraniha, Luca Leuzzi +1
In this chapter we report on the measurements of the overlap distribution of the replica symmetry breaking solution in complex disordered systems. After a general introduction to t…
Biomimetic random lasers with tunable spatial and temporal coherence
Neda Ghofraniha, Luca La Volpe, Daniel Van Opdenbosch +2
Biologically inspired photonic structures are the key for technological advances and for miniaturized lasers. Here random lasers in dye-doped titania with the disordered structure…
Heterogeneous Random Laser with Switching Activity Visualized by Replica Symmetry Breaking Maps
Loredana M. Massaro, Silvia Gentilini, Alberto Portone +4
In the past decade, complex networks of light emitters are proposed as novel platforms for photonic circuits and lab-on-chip active devices. Lasing networks made by connected multi…
Optical Spatial Shock Waves in Nonlocal Nonlinear Media
Giulia Marcucci, Davide Pierangeli, Silvia Gentilini +3
Dispersive shock waves are fascinating phenomena occurring when nonlinearity overwhelms linear effects, such as dispersion and diffraction. Many features of shock waves are still u…
Transition from non-resonant to resonant random lasers by the geometrical confinement of disorder
N. Ghofraniha, I. Viola, A. Zacheo +3
We report on a novel kind of transition in random lasers induced by the geometrical confinement of the emitting material. Different dye doped paper devices with controlled geometry…
