PyMieDiff: A differentiable Mie scattering library
Oscar K. C. Jackson, Simone De Liberato, Otto L. Muskens +1
Light scattering by spherical-shaped particles of sizes comparable to the wavelength is foundational in many areas of science, from chemistry to atmospheric science, photonics and…
Silicon nanoantennas for tailoring the optical properties of MoS2 monolayers
Danae Katrisioti, Peter R. Wiecha, Aurélien Cuche +11
Silicon-based dielectric nanoantennas provide an effective platform for engineering light-matter interactions in van der Waals semiconductors. Here, we demonstrate near-field coupl…
TorchGDM: A GPU-Accelerated Python Toolkit for Multi-Scale Electromagnetic Scattering with Automatic Differentiation
Sofia Ponomareva, Adelin Patoux, Clément Majorel +5
We present "torchGDM", a numerical framework for nano-optical simulations based on the Green's Dyadic Method (GDM). This toolkit combines a hybrid approach, allowing for both fully…
Gradient-Based Optimization of Core-Shell Particles with Discrete Materials for Directional Scattering
Dalin Soun, Antoine Azéma, Lucien Roach +2
Designing nanophotonic structures traditionally grapples with the complexities of discrete parameters, such as real materials, often resorting to costly global optimization methods…
Programmable metasurfaces for future photonic artificial intelligence
Loubnan Abou-Hamdan, Emil Marinov, Peter Wiecha +3
Photonic neural networks (PNNs), which share the inherent benefits of photonic systems, such as high parallelism and low power consumption, could challenge traditional digital neur…
