A Brewster route to Cherenkov detectors

Xiao Lin, Hao Hu, Sajan Easo +10

The Cherenkov effect enables a valuable tool, known as the Cherenkov detector, to identify high-energy particles via the measurement of the Cherenkov cone. However, the sensitivity…

Efficient generation of extreme terahertz harmonics in 3D Dirac semimetals

J. Lim, Y. S. Ang, F. J. G. de Abajó +3

Frequency multiplication of terahertz signals on a solid state platform is highly sought-after for the next generation of high-speed electronics and the creation of frequency combs…

Observation of the Stimulated Quantum Cherenkov Effect

Saar Nehemia, Raphael Dahan, Michael Shentcis +8

As charged particles surpass the speed of light in an optical medium they produce radiation - analogously to the way jet planes surpass the speed of sound and produce a sonic boom.…

Monochromatic X-ray source based on scattering from a magnetic nanoundulator

Sophie Fisher, Charles Roques-Carmes, Nicholas Rivera +3

We present a novel design for an ultra-compact, passive light source capable of generating ultraviolet and X-ray radiation, based on the interaction of free electrons with the magn…

Coherent interaction between free electrons and a photonic cavity

Kangpeng Wang, Raphael Dahan, Michael Shentcis +5

Since its inception, research of cavity quantum electrodynamics (CQED) has extended our understanding of light-matter interactions and our ability to utilize them. Thus far, all th…

Abruptly Focusing and Defocusing Needles of Light and Closed-Form Electromagnetic Wavepackets

Liang Jie Wong, Ido Kaminer

Fourier optics enforces a tradeoff between length and narrowness in electromagnetic wavepackets, so that a narrow spatial focus diffracts at a large divergence angle, and only infi…
