Photonic crystals are stuctures in which the refractive index varies periodically on the wavelength scale in one, two or three dimensions. Due to interference effects, these structures can forbid light propagation over a large spectral range called "the ph ...
For the past couple of decades the desire to add more complexity to a computer chip, while simultaneously reducing the cost per bit, has been accommodated by down-scaling. This approach has been extremely successful in the past, but like all good things it ...
The field of photonic crystals is a rapidly developing branch of modern optics. Photonic crystals are believed to be the cornerstone for a wide range of new photonic devices controlling the confinement and propagation of light. These artificial structures ...
In this work, an optimum frequency is found for the operation of single cavity photonic switches. At this optimum point, the transmission contrast of ON and OFF states takes its highest value, while keeping the device power threshold relatively low and the ...

Cavity-enhanced radiation-pressure coupling of optical and mechanical degrees of freedom gives rise to a range of optomechanical phenomena, in particular providing a route to the quantum regime of mesoscopic mechanical oscillators. A prime challenge in cav ...
Micro-optical compo nents offer several possibilities for creating large matrices of optical traps, either when working on inverted microscopes, or by directly integrating miniaturized optical components at the level of a micro-fluidic chip. In thisarticle ...
One crucial challenge for subwavelength optics has been the development of a tunable source of coherent laser radiation for use in the physical, information and biological sciences that is stable at room temperature and physiological conditions. Current ad ...
Semiconductor nanowires have received much attention owing to their potential use as building blocks of miniaturized electrical(1), nanofluidic(2) and optical devices(3). Although chemical nanowire synthesis procedures have matured and now yield nanowires ...
We present a multiple laser tweezers system based on refractive optics. The system produces an array of 100 optical traps thanks to a refractive microlens array, whose focal plane is imaged into the focal plane of a high-NA microscope objective. This refra ...
We carried out distributed measurements of the longitudinal gain of fiber-optical parametric amplifiers using a novel sensing technique based on Brillouin optical time-domain analysis. Using this technique, we successfully characterized different gain beha ...
