Characterization of Surface-Plasmon Polaritons at Lossy Interfaces

Nafiseh Sang-Nourpour, Benjamin R. Lavoie, R. Kheradmand +2

We characterize surface-plasmon polaritons at lossy planar interfaces between one dispersive and one nondispersive linear isotropic homogeneous media, i.e., materials or metamateri…

Characterization of Hybrid Modes in Metamaterial Waveguides

M. Beig-Mohammadi, Nafiseh Sang-Nourpour, Barry C. Sanders +2

In this paper, we employ the properties of metamaterials to tailor the modes of metamaterial-dielectric waveguides operating at optical frequencies. We survey the effect of fishnet…

Electromagnetic-Magnetoelectric Duality for Waveguides

Nafiseh Sang-Nourpour, Benjamin R. Lavoie, R. Kheradmand +2

We develop a theory for waveguides that respects the duality of electromagnetism, namely the symmetry of the equations arising through inclusion of magnetic monopoles in addition t…

Slow Light in Metamaterial Waveguides

Benjamin R. Lavoie

Metamaterials, which are materials engineered to possess novel optical properties, have been increasingly studied. The ability to fabricate metamaterials has sparked an interest in…

Slow light with three-level atoms in metamaterial waveguides

Benjamin R. Lavoie, Patrick M. Leung, Barry C. Sanders

Metamaterial is promising for enhancing the capability of plasmonic devices. We consider a cylindrical waveguide with three-level Λ atoms embedded in the dielectric core. By compar…

su(3) intelligent states as coupled Su(3) coherent states

Benjamin R. Lavoie, Hubert de Guise

We extend previous work on intelligent states and show how to construct su(3) intelligent states by coupling Su(3) coherent states. We also discuss some properties of the resulting…
