Narrowband Optical Coupler Using Fano Interference in First Order Diffraction

Olivier Martin, Benjamin Gallinet, Giorgio Quaranta, Fabian Michael Lütolf

Light coupling in waveguides has been extensively investigated in a variety of contexts, from photonic integrated circuits to biosensing and near-eye displays for augmented reality. Here, narrowband diffraction is reported using a Fano interference effect ...

Transmission Microsphere-Assisted Dark-Field Microscopy

Giorgio Quaranta, Stéphane Perrin, Hongyu Li

Microsphere-assisted microscopy allows the limit of the diffraction of light to overcome while being non-invasive, full-field, label-free, and easy-to-implement. However, the observation of translucent samples remains difficult using a classical bright-fie ...

Resonant Waveguide Gratings for Color-Selective Diffraction

Giorgio Quaranta

Resonant waveguide gratings (RWGs), also known as guided mode resonant (GMR) gratings or waveguide-mode resonant gratings, are dielectric structures where these resonant diffractive elements benefit from lateral leaky guided modes and can operate from UV t ...

Light refocusing with up-scalable resonant waveguide gratings in confocal prolate spheroid arrangements

Olivier Martin, Benjamin Gallinet, Zdenek Benes, Giorgio Quaranta, Guillaume Basset

Resonant waveguide gratings (RWGs) are thin-film structures, where coupled modesinterfere with the diffracted incoming wave and produce strong angular and spectral filtering. The combination of two finite-length and impedance matched RWGs allows the creati ...

Recent Advances in Resonant Waveguide Gratings

Olivier Martin, Benjamin Gallinet, Giorgio Quaranta, Guillaume Basset

Resonant waveguide gratings (RWGs), also known as guided mode resonant (GMR) gratings or waveguide-mode resonant gratings, are dielectric structures where these resonant diffractive elements benefit from lateral leaky guided modes from UV to microwave freq ...

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

Olivier Martin, Giorgio Quaranta, Benjamin Gallinet, 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 ...
