A theoretical investigation of the dynamics in a photoluminescence experiment in strong-coupling semiconductor microcavities is presented. Radiative recombination rates of microcavity polaritons in the strong-coupling regime and their scattering rates with ...
The design and characterization of optical phantoms which have the same absorption and scattering characteristics as biological tissues in a broad spectral window (between 400 and 650 nm) are presented. These low cost phantoms use agarose dissolved in wate ...
Spin orientation by optical pumping experiments were undertaken on three strained In0.2Ga0.8As/GaAs QW's with different thicknesses. The results concerning the circular degree of polarization dependence on the exciting energy are very different from well t ...
An adaptation of Kubelka's general model of diffuse reflectance and diffuse transmittance of light to nonideal scattering samples is proposed. It is applied to quant. Fourier transform IR spectrometry of nondiluted surface-derivatized silica powders. Corre ...
The principal techniques for chromatic dispersion measurements are described with special focus on the interferometric methods. The techniques are compared with respect to their results, advantages and limitations, and the influence of birefringence effect ...
We present a comparison between the semiclassical and the full quantum descriptions of optical properties of quantum wells (QWs) in semiconductor microcavities. The semiclassical theory, which is based on a nonlocal treatment of the optical response of a s ...
An all-fiber interferometric method for chromatic dispersion measurements in meter-length single-mode fibers is presented. In a Michelson setup the physical length of a reference fiber was varied so as to obtain adjustable optical delay. Time resolution, e ...
