Upper bounds on technoemission rates from 60 years of "silence"

The lack of detection to date of electromagnetic technosignatures implies either that we have been unable to detect them due to incomplete sampling of the search space or that we cannot detect them because the Earth has been located during the entire histo ...

Ultrafast tunable lasers using lithium niobate integrated photonics

Tobias Kippenberg, Rui Ning Wang, Anat Siddharth, Mikhail Churaev, Viacheslav Snigirev, Junqiu Liu, Guanhao Huang

Early works(1) and recent advances in thin-film lithium niobate (LiNbO3) on insulator have enabled low-loss photonic integrated circuits(2,3), modulators with improved half-wave voltage(4,5), electro-optic frequency combs(6) and on-chip electro-optic devic ...

Low-noise frequency-agile photonic integrated lasers for coherent ranging

Tobias Kippenberg, Rui Ning Wang, Anat Siddharth, Viacheslav Snigirev, Junqiu Liu, Wenle Weng, Jijun He, Andrey Voloshin, Vladimir Shadymov

Stable and tunable integrated lasers are fundamental building blocks for applications from spectroscopy to imaging and communication. Here the authors present a narrow linewidth hybrid photonic integrated laser with low frequency noise and fast linear wave ...

Demography of galactic technosignatures

Claudio Grimaldi

Probabilistic arguments about the existence of technological life beyond Earth traditionally refer to the Drake equation to draw possible estimates of the number of technologically advanced civilizations releasing, either intentionally or not, electromagne ...

n-photon blockade with an n-photon parametric drive

Fabrizio Minganti, Wei Qin

We propose a mechanism to engineer an n-photon blockade in a nonlinear cavity with an n-photon parametric drive lambda(adagger n + an). When an n-photon-excitation resonance condition is satisfied, the presence of n photons in the cavity suppress ...

Drexhage’s Experiment for Sound

Romain Christophe Rémy Fleury

Drexhage’s seminal observation that spontaneous emission rates of fluorophores vary with distance from a mirror uncovered the fundamental notion that a source’s environment determines radiative linewidths and shifts. Further, this observation established a ...

Orientation Dependence of Plasmonically Enhanced Spontaneous Emission

Olivier Martin

We computationally explore how the orientation of dipolar emitters placed near plasmonic nanostructures affects their radiative enhancement and spontaneous emission rate. We demonstrate that the expressions for these quantities show a subtle dependence on ...

Study of the inter-particle necks in selective laser sintering

Rémy Glardon, Jamasp Jhabvala, Eric Boillat

Purpose – Since pulsed lasers are mainly used in selective laser sintering (SLS) – contrarily to selective laser melting (SLM) – only the exterior of the powder particles is molten while their core stays solid. The purpose of this paper is to investigate t ...

Surface-Plasmon-Induced Modification on the Spontaneous Emission Spectrum via Subwavelength-Confined Anisotropic Purcell Factor

Olivier Martin, Jingwen Zhang

The mechanism of using the anisotropic Purcell factor to control the spontaneous emission linewidths in a four-level atom is theoretically demonstrated; if the polarization angle bisector of the two dipole moments lies along the axis of large/small Purcell ...

On-chip stimulated Brillouin scattering

Luc Thévenaz

We demonstrate on-chip stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS) in an As2S3 chalcogenide rib waveguide. SBS was characterized in a 7cm long waveguide with a cross-section 4μm x 850nm using the backscattered signal and pump-probe technique. The measured Brillo ...
