Single-pump hybrid nonlinearities in transparent conductors

Wallace Jaffray, Sven Stengel, Alexandra Boltasseva +7

Low-index transparent conducting oxides have attracted significant attention because ultrafast optical excitation in these materials can induce exceptionally large temporal index g…

Polarization-Sensitive Third Harmonic Generation in resonant silicon nitride Metasurfaces for deep-UV Emission

Shroddha Mukhopadhyay, Maria Antonietta Vincenti, Radu Malureanu +3

We present a combined experimental and theoretical study of enhanced third-harmonic generation (THG) in silicon nitride metasurfaces. These structures exhibit strong resonant nonli…

Second-Harmonic Generation at a Fourth-Order Exceptional Point Degeneracy

Albert Herrero-Parareda, Domenico de Ceglia, Maria Antonietta Vincenti +3

An anomalous flat-band dispersion provided by a degenerate band edge (DBE) of longitudinal optical modes in a double-grating waveguide is used to enhance second-harmonic generation…

Electro-optical modulation of light polarization in a nonlocal lithium niobate metasurface

Agostino Di Francescantonio, Alessandra Sabatti, Eleni Prountzou +6

We report the experimental realization of a LiNbO3 metasurface for electro-optic modulation of light polarization in the telecommunication band. High-Q quasi-bound states in the co…

Gold-polymer hybrid metasurface for polarization-independent enhanced third harmonic generation in the ultraviolet

Shroddha Mukhopadhyay, Ana Conde-Rubio, Jose Trull +4

We present a combined experimental and theoretical study of nonlinear light-matter interactions in a three-dimensional gold-polymer hybrid metasurface. In contrast to conventional…

Third Harmonic Generation in Transparent Longitudinal Epsilon-Near-Zero Multilayers

Wallace Jaffray, Sven Stengel, Domenico de Ceglia +5

Epsilon near zero (ENZ) materials can dramatically enhance local optical fields, enabling nonlinear interactions at relatively low intensities. Yet, near their plasma frequency, co…
