Heralded Preparation and Readout of Entangled Phonons in a Photonic Crystal Cavity

Vincenzo Savona, Hugo Pierre Alexandre Flayac

We propose a realistic protocol for the preparation and readout of mechanical Bell states in an optomechanical system. The proposal relies on parameters characterizing a photonic crystal cavity mode, coupled to two localized flexural modes of the structure ...

Multipactor Analysis in Parallel-Plate Waveguides Loaded by a Single Dielectric Slab

Michael Mattes, Francisco Edén Sorolla Rosario, Apostolos Sounas

This paper studies the evolution of the multipactor discharge inside a parallel-plate waveguide partially loaded by a dielectric slab. The effect of static charges on the dielectric surface as well as of induced charges on the metallic plates are included. ...

Near-field imaging

Libo Yu

Bloch surface waves (BSWs) are surface electromagnetic waves excited at the interface between a truncated periodic dielectric multilayer and a surrounding medium. This particular solution to the Maxwell equations in stratified media has been known since th ...

Photonic Crystal Biosensor Based on Optical Surface Waves

Giovanni Dietler, Tatyana Karakouz, Chiara Vicario

A label-free biosensor device based on registration of photonic crystal surface waves is described. Angular interrogation of the optical surface wave resonance is used to detect changes in the thickness of an adsorbed layer, while an additional simultaneou ...

Near-field study of dielectric surface lens

Hans Peter Herzig, Vincent Paeder, Elsie Barakat, Libo Yu

In this work, we design, fabricate and experimentally characterize a surface structured lens within an ultra thin polymer layer deposited on a Bloch Surface Waves (BSWs) suspended dielectric platform. The near-field (SNOM) measurements demonstrate that the ...

Fano Resonances in Plasmonic Nanostructures

Benjamin Gallinet

Surface plasmons are able to generate extremely strong and confined optical fields at a deep-subwavelength scale, far beyond the diffraction limit, and now play a central role in nanosciences. A proper combination of plasmonic nanostructures can support Fa ...

Magnetic Field Induced Redistribution of Exciton-Polariton Density on Confined Modes

Benoît Marie Joseph Deveaud, Gaël Nardin, François Morier-Genoud, Barbara Pietka

The influence of magnetic field on confined exciton-polariton modes inside a semiconductor microcavity is discussed. The three-dimensional confinement for exciton-polaritons is achieved by the mesa structures confining the photonic part of polaritons. We o ...

Can a Metal Surface Repel Electric Charges?

Primoz Rebernik Ribic

We show that the interaction between a surface and a charge packet moving parallel to it can become repulsive above a critical relativistic energy. We find that this is true for a lossless dielectric surface and also for a Drude metallic surface-in apparen ...

Long-Distance Indirect Excitation of Nanoplasmonic Resonances

Klaus Kern, Moritz Esslinger, Alexandre Dmitriev

In nanoscopic systems, size, geometry, and arrangement are the crucial determinants of the light-matter interaction and resulting nanoparticles excitation. At optical frequencies, one of the most prominent examples is the excitation of localized surface pl ...

Optical Wire Antennas

In this thesis we study the properties of optical wire antennas. As experimental method for our investigations we use apertureless near-field optical microscopy. This technique achieves high spatial resolution well beyond the diffraction limit by utilizing ...
