This thesis explores the properties of the transmission of light through subwavelength slits in metal films. Theoretical and experimental studies on the transmission through slits in metals are presented. In addition, the potential use of these slits for d ...
Optical nanostructures have the potential to provide useful new functionalities, using materials and fabrication methods that are compatible with standard silicon-based processes. For example, it has been shown that a nanoscale grating coated with a metal ...
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 ...

Thin-film InGaN photonic crystal (PhC) light-emitting diodes (LEDs) with a total semiconductor thickness of either 800 nm or 3.45 mu m were fabricated and characterized. Increased directional radiance relative to Lambertian emission was observed for both c ...
This work explores the impact of cavity thickness, photonic crystal etch depth, and quantum well placement on the extraction efficiency and emission directionality of thin-film InGaN photonic crystal light-emitting diodes (LEDs). ...
Since its prediction in 1996 by Imamoğlu and coworkers, the use of a non-equilibrium polariton condensate to produce an intense coherent light source referred to as a polariton laser has attracted a lot of interest in the whole physics community as it ...
This work presents the experimental measurement of the extraction lengths of individual guided modes of embedded photonic-crystal (PhC) light-emitting diodes (LEDs), which corroborates its superior guided light extraction compared to surface PhC LEDs. Whil ...
A room temperature polariton condensate realized in a microcavity with embedded GaN quantum wells emits linearly polarized light at threshold with the plane of polarization pinned to one of the crystallographic axes. With increasing pumping power, a depinn ...
Recent startling interest for lanthanide luminescence is stimulated by the continuously expanding need for luminescent materials meeting the stringent requirements of telecommunication, lighting, electroluminescent devices, (bio-)analytical sensors and bio ...
A method and computing system are proposed for producing an authenticable security device with two sides. The verso side is covered with a luminescent emissive variable intensity layer formed for example by invisible luminescent ink halftones and the recto ...
