Two-dimensional (2D) photonic crystals (PhCs) operating in the near-infrared wavelengths are promising candidates for novel integrated optics applications. In this work the optical properties of the Bloch modes in 2D photonic crystals have been investigate ...
The study of molecular dynamics at the single-molecule level with fluorescence correlation spectroscopy (FCS) and far-field optics has contributed greatly to the functional understanding of complex systems. Unfortunately, such studies are restricted to len ...

Light or electromagnetic wave scattered by a single sphere or a coated sphere has been considered as a classic Mie theory. There have been some further extensions that were made further based on the Mie theory. Recently, a closed-form analytical model of t ...
This paper describes the effect of Muller-Lyer illusion on a reaching movement just after the visual and haptic/kinesthetic cues are simultaneously presented. First, a standard experiment on this visual illusion is conducted by means of the most typical wa ...

We use the optical transfer-matrix method to quantify the spatial distribution of light in solid-state dye-sensitized solar cells (DSCs), employing material optical properties measured experimentally in the accompanying article (Part I) as input into the o ...
This study demonstrates the feasibility of using fibre Bragg grating (FBG) sensors to monitor the effects of hygrothermal ageing on the axial strains in a cylindrical epoxy specimen with a centrally located optical glass fibre. A 24 mm long FBG, inscribed ...
We report on the experimental investigation of the Floquet-Bloch modes propagation inside photonic crystal (PhC) structures as well as their emission from the structures with far-field optics. We demonstrate that far-field optical experiments can be used t ...

The inherent coupling of optical and mechanical modes in high finesse optical microresonators provides a natural, highly sensitive transduction mechanism for micromechanical vibration. Using homodyne and polarization spectroscopy techniques, we achieve sho ...
Micro-optical elements are optical elements having size or details in the range of the micrometer scale. The emergency of such elements is strongly linked to the development made in the fabrication techniques during the nineties to follow the still actual ...

A novel technique to produce large all-optically controlled tunable delays of 100 ps pulse train in optical fibers is demonstrated. The configuration of the delay line basically consists of two main stages: the wavelength conversion via semiconductor optic ...
