Non-reciprocal optical mirrors based on spatio-temporal acousto-optic modulation

Here, we investigate a scheme to realize free-space isolators and highly non-reciprocal mirrors with weak modulation imparted by an acoustic wave. We propose a strategy to dramatically break time-reversal symmetry by exploiting resonant interactions betwee ...

Near-field characterization of Bloch surface waves based 2D optical components

Richa Dubey

Bloch surface waves (BSWs) are surface electromagnetic modes that propagate at the interface between a multilayer substrate and a homogeneous external medium. The optical field of the surface mode is confined near the surface of the multilayer. This vertic ...

Color-Selective and Versatile Light Steering with up-Scalable Subwavelength Planar Optics

Olivier Martin, Benjamin Gallinet, Giorgio Quaranta, Guillaume Basset

Resonant waveguide gratings (RWGs) are subwavelength structures of great interest for biosensors, optical filters and optical security applications. We demonstrate and characterize a beam steering device, where the in-coupling and out-coupling processes ma ...

Spatial fringe analysis techniques for multiple phase and phase derivative estimation

Rishikesh Dilip Kulkarni

Analysis of fringe patterns for the accurate estimation of phase and phase derivatives is of crucial importance in optical interferometry as these quantities provide important information on the physical parameters under study. A wide range of applications ...

Fringe filtering technique based on local signal reconstruction using noise subspace inflation

Pramod Rastogi, Rishikesh Dilip Kulkarni

A noise filtering technique is proposed to filter the fringe pattern recorded in the optical measurement set-up. A single fringe pattern carrying the information on the measurand is treated as a data matrix which can either be complex or real valued. In th ...

Intense THz source based on BNA organic crystal pumped at Ti:sapphire wavelength

Christoph Peter Hauri, Mostafa Shalaby

We report on high-energy terahertz pulses by optical rectification (OR) in the organic crystal N-benzyl-2-methyl-4-nitroaniline (BNA) directly pumped by a conventional Ti:sapphire amplifier. The simple scheme provides an optical-to-terahertz conversion eff ...
