Interpretable inverse-designed cavity for on-chip nonlinear and quantum optics

Zhetao Jia, Wayesh Qarony, Jagang Park +9

Inverse design is a powerful tool in wave-physics and in particular in photonics for compact, high-performance devices. To date, applications have mostly been limited to linear sys…

Equivalence of coupled parametric oscillator dynamics to Lagrange multiplier primal-dual optimization

Sri Krishna Vadlamani, Tianyao Patrick Xiao, Eli Yablonovitch

There has been a recent surge of interest in physics-based solvers for combinatorial optimization problems. We present a dynamical solver for the Ising problem that is comprised of…

Thermodynamics of light management in near-field thermophotovoltaics

Georgia T. Papadakis, Meir Orenstein, Eli Yablonovitch +1

We evaluate near-field thermophotovoltaic (TPV) energy conversion systems focusing in particular on their open-circuit voltage (Voc). Unlike previous analyses based largely on nume…

Physics Successfully Implements Lagrange Multiplier Optimization

Sri Krishna Vadlamani, Tianyao Patrick Xiao, Eli Yablonovitch

Optimization is a major part of human effort. While being mathematical, optimization is also built into physics. For example, physics has the principle of Least Action, the princip…

Electrical suppression of all nonradiative recombination pathways in monolayer semiconductors

Der-Hsien Lien, Shiekh Zia Uddin, Matthew Yeh +5

Defects in conventional semiconductors substantially lower the photoluminescence (PL) quantum yield (QY), a key metric of optoelectronic performance that directly dictates the maxi…

Light, the universe, and everything -- 12 Herculean tasks for quantum cowboys and black diamond skiers

Girish Agarwal, Roland Allen, Iva Bezdekova +29

The Winter Colloquium on the Physics of Quantum Electronics (PQE) has been a seminal force in quantum optics and related areas since 1971. It is rather mindboggling to recognize ho…
