A reflecting cell allowing the dynamic and independent control of the reflection phase of two perpendicular linearly-polarized waves is presented. This capability is useful for the implementation of dual-polarized beam-reconfigurable reflectarrays, as well ...

We present results on the polarization-resolved photoluminescence emitted from InGaAs/AlGaAs single quantum dots (QDs) grown in inverted tetrahedral pyramids. The emitted light was detected for two mutually perpendicular linear polarization directions in t ...
Information about the poloidal field inside the plasma and about the current density profile is essential for the understanding of the behavior of tokamak plasmas. The poloidal field outside the plasma edge is easily measured by a set of magnetic coils, wh ...
Ultrathin films of the ferroelectric polymer poly(vinylidene fluoride-trifluoroethylene) [P(VDF-TrFE)] have recently attracted intensive research interest due to their potential applications in emerging organic devices. As special geometry confinement syst ...
This work augments the proposal of Schwarzenbach & Flack [J. Appl. Cryst. (1989), 22, 601-605], who have advocated the use of a diffractometer-independent definition of the azimuthal angle ψ to specify the diffractiongeometry of a Bragg reflection. It ...
Electron cyclotron heating (ECH) is widely used in magnetic fusion devices, and the polarization of the injected millimeter-wave beams plays a crucial role in the propagation and absorption of the beam energy by the plasma. This polarization can be adjuste ...
We experimentally demonstrate that hybridized nanocavities in optically thick metal films radiate in coherence, and act as an efficient single-polarized plasmonic nano-antenna array. We employ propagating and localized plasmons to enhance polarization cont ...
Half-vortices have been recently shown to be the elementary topological defects supported by a spinor cavity exciton-polariton condensates with spin-anisotropic interactions [Y. G. Rubo, Phys. Rev. Lett. 99, 106401 (2007)]. A half-vortex is composed by an ...
Based on liquid crystal polymers (LCP) a compact micro-optical polarizer with high efficiency has been designed and realized. By using cylindrical mierolens arrays made of LCP and index matching layer, a complete separation of both polarization components ...
A simple, efficient, and compact rotary joint has been designed, realized, and measured. It has been used intensively to perform polarization ellipticity measurements on various circularly polarized antennas (e.g., helical antennas and circularly polarized ...
