Leaky Modes of Dielectric Cavities
Masud Mansuripur, Miroslav Kolesik, Per Jakobsen
In the absence of external excitation, light trapped within a dielectric medium generally decays by leaking out (and also by getting absorbed within the medium). We analyze the lea…
Light-Matter Interaction: Conversion of Optical Energy and Momentum to Mechanical Vibrations and Phonons
Masud Mansuripur
Reflection, refraction, and absorption of light by material media are, in general, accompanied by a transfer of optical energy and momentum to the media. Consequently, the eigen-mo…
