Unraveling Optical Polarization at Deep Microscopic Scales in Crystalline Materials
Sathwik Bharadwaj, Zubin Jacob
Nanophotonics, the study of light-matter interaction at scales smaller than the wavelength of radiation, has widespread applications in plasmonic waveguiding, topological photonic…
What are the quantum commutation relations for the total angular momentum of light?
Pronoy Das, Li-Ping Yang, Zubin Jacob
The total angular momentum of light has received attention for its application in a variety of phenomena such as optical communication, optical forces and sensing. However, the qua…
Quantum theory of orbital angular momentum in spatiotemporal optical vortices
Pronoy Das, Sathwik Bharadwaj, Zubin Jacob
Spatiotemporal Optical Vortices (STOVs) are structured electromagnetic fields propagating in free space with phase singularities in the space-time domain. Depending on the tilt of…
Computational Kerr-Ellipsometry: Quantifying Broadband Optical Nonreciprocity of Magneto-Optic Materials
Vishal Choudhury, Chinmay Khandekar, Ashwin K. Boddeti +7
Characterizing the optical response of magneto-optic and magnetic materials usually relies on semi-classical models (e.g. Lorentz oscillator model) involving few parameters or mode…
Adaptive quantum accelerated imaging for space domain awareness
Hyunsoo Choi, Fanglin bao, Zubin Jacob
The growth in space activity has increased the need for Space Domain Awareness (SDA) to ensure safe space operations. Imaging and detecting space targets is, however, challenging d…
New horizons in near-zero refractive index photonics and hyperbolic metamaterials
Michaël Lobet, Nathaniel Kinsey, Iñigo Liberal +7
The engineering of the spatial and temporal properties of both the electric permittivity and the refractive index of materials is at the core of photonics. When vanishing to zero,…
