Revisiting Newton’s rings with a plasmonic optical flat for high-accuracy surface inspection
Olivier Martin, Xiaolong Wang, Jie Bian
Two parallel optical surfaces often exhibit colorful fringes along the lines of equal thickness because of the interference of light. This simple phenomenon allows one to observe subwavelength corrugations on a reflective surface by simply placing on it a ...
Springer2016High spectral resolution waveguide spectrometer with enhanced throughput for space and commercial applications
This dissertation presents the results concerning the development of an innovative high spectral resolution waveguide spectrometer, from the concept to the prototype demonstration and the test results. The main innovative aspects of this instrument are the ...
EPFL2016Internal optical forces in plasmonic nanostructures
Olivier Martin, Raziman Thottungal Valapu
We present a computational study of the internal optical forces arising in plasmonic gap antennas, dolmen structures and split rings. We find that very strong internal forces perpendicular to the propagation direction appear in these systems. These interna ...

Optical Society of America2015Broadband optical isolator using phase modulators and mach-zehnder interferometers
Christophe Marcel Georges Galland
Optical devices that do not employ magneto-optics materials or non-linear effects to achieve non-reciprocal light propagation. The optical devices are compatible with the fabrication of monolithic photonic integrated circuits such as silicon-on-insulator p ...
2014Optical Mirror from Laser-Trapped Mesoscopic Particles
Johann Rohner, Jean-Marc Fournier
Trapping of mesoscopic particles by optical forces usually relies on the gradient force, whereby particles are attracted into optical wells formed by landscaping the intensity of an optical field. This is most often achieved by optical Gaussian beams, inte ...
Amer Physical Soc2014High-power flip-chip semiconductor disk laser in the 1.3 μm wavelength band
Elyahou Kapon, Alexandru Mereuta, Vladimir Iakovlev, Alexei Sirbu
We present 6.1 W of output power from a flip-chip semiconductor disk laser (SDL) emitting in the 1.3 mu m wavelength region. This is the first demonstration of a flip-chip SDL in this wavelength range with output powers that are comparable to those obtaine ...
Optical Soc Amer2014Light confinement effect of non-spherical nanoscale solid immersion lenses
Hans Peter Herzig, Gaël David Osowiecki, Toralf Scharf, Myun Sik Kim
We report on the light confinement effect observed in nonideally shaped (i.e., nonspherical) nanoscale solid immersion lenses (SIL). To investigate this effect, nanostructures of various shapes are fabricated by electron-beam lithography. When completely m ...
Spie-Soc Photo-Optical Instrumentation Engineers2013Low-NA focused vortex beam lithography for below 100-nm feature size at 405 nm illumination
Hans Peter Herzig, Toralf Scharf, Myun Sik Kim
There are varieties of novel methods, which demonstrate the super-resolution. For instance, an optically trapped sub-micron dielectric sphere serves as a near-field focusing lens to directly write patterns of ~100 nm in liquid, and accelerated metallic nan ...
