The Surface response around a sharply resonant surface polariton mode is simply a Lorentzian

J. C. de Aquino Carvalho, D. Bloch

At the planar interface between a material and vacuum, the complex surface response S(omega)=[eps(omega) 1]/[eps(omega)+1], with eps(omega) the relative complex dielectric permitti…

Optics of an opal modeled with a stratified effective index and the effect of the interface

Isabelle Maurin, Elias Moufarej, Athanasios Laliotis +1

Reflection and transmission for an artificial opal are described through a model of stratified medium based upon a one-dimensional variation of an effective index. The model is not…

Resonant infiltration of an opal: reflection lineshape and contribution from in-depth regions

Isabelle Maurin, Daniel Bloch

We analyze the resonant variation of the optical reflection on an infiltrated artificial opal made of transparent nanospheres. The resonant infiltration is considered as a perturba…

Infiltrating a thin or single layer opal with an atomic vapour: sub-doppler signals and crystal optics

Elias Moufarej, Isabelle Maurin, Ilya Zabkov +4

Artificial thin glass opals can be infiltrated with a resonant alkali-metal vapour, providing novel types of hybrid systems. The reflection at the interface between the substrate a…

The optical interface of a photonic crystal: Modeling an opal with a stratified effective index

Isabelle Maurin, Elias Moufarej, Athanasios Laliotis +1

An artificial opal is a compact arrangement of transparent spheres, and is an archetype of a three-dimensional photonic crystal. Here, we describe the optics of an opal using a fle…

A Tabulation and Critical Analysis of the Wavelength-Dependent Dielectric Image Coefficient for the Interaction Exerted by a Surface onto a Neighbouring Excited Atom

Solomon Saltiel, Daniel Bloch, Martial Ducloy

The near-field interaction of an atom with a dielectric surface is inversely proportional to the cube to the distance to the surface, and its coupling strength depends on a dielect…
