Chiral cavities made from lattices of highly electromagnetically-chiral scatterers
Lukas Rebholz, Carsten Rockstuhl, Ivan Fernandez-Corbaton
The infamous weakness of molecular chiroptical responses challenges the all-optical realization of crucial applications such as enantio-selective sorting of chiral molecules, or bi…
Studying thermal radiation with T-matrices
Juan Diego Mazo-Vásquez, Markus Nyman, Marjan Krstić +3
We introduce a basic formalism for computing thermal radiation by combining Waterman's T-matrix method with an algebraic approach to light-matter interactions. The formalism applie…
A scalar product for the radiation of resonant modes
Maria Paszkiewicz-Idzik, Lukas Rebholz, Carsten Rockstuhl +1
We introduce the conformally-invariant scalar product, originally devised for radiation fields, to the study of the modes of optical resonators. This scalar product allows one to n…
Analyzing the acceleration time and reflectance of light sails made from homogeneous and core-shell spheres
Mitchell R. Whittam, Lukas Rebholz, Benedikt Zerulla +1
Deciding on appropriate materials and designs for use in light sails, like the one proposed in the Breakthrough Starshot Initiative, is a topic that requires much care and forethou…
