Subwavelength imaging using a solid-immersion diffractive optical processor
Demetri Psaltis, Carlo Gigli, Niyazi Ulas Dinç, Yang Li
Phase imaging is widely used in biomedical imaging, sensing, and material characterization, among other fields. However, direct imaging of phase objects with subwavelength resolution remains a challenge. Here, we demonstrate subwavelength imaging of phase ...
Springernature2024Enabling Wide Bandwidth in Substrate-Integrated Waveguide Slot Antennas by Using Low-Index Metamaterials
Romain Christophe Rémy Fleury, Amir Jafargholi, Jalaledin Tayebpour
This paper presents a solution to overcome the inherently limited bandwidth of substrate-integrated waveguide (SIW) slot antennas. It is analytically shown that by decreasing the permittivity of a dielectric loaded slot antenna, the resulting bandwidth inc ...
2024Plasmonic Nanostructures for Photocatalysis: Material, Photonic and Electronic Effects
Plasmonic photochemistry has a large potential to replace energy-intensive chemical processes with low-temperature, low-pressure light-driven chemical reactions. Plasmonic nanostructures have emerged as promising photocatalysts with exceptional and tunable ...
EPFL2024All-Dielectric Nanophotonic via Glass Fluid Instabilities
In this thesis work, we propose to exploit an innovative micro/nano-fabrication process, based on controlled fluid instabilities of a thin viscous film of chalcogenide glass. Amorphous selenium and arsenic triselenide were used in this thesis work, and com ...
EPFL2024MEMS-based Tunable Metasurface for Reflective Display Applications
In an era where portable electronic devices are indispensable for a wide range of activities, the need for displays that provide both long-lasting battery life and excellent visibility in different lighting conditions is increasingly important. Emissive di ...
EPFL2024Microwave Metalens Antennas
Recently, there has been growing interest in the use of metamaterial (MTM)-based lenses, also known as metalenses, as innovative antenna technology. Increasingly widespread applications of metalenses in modern microwave communication and sensing systems ha ...
IEEE-INST ELECTRICAL ELECTRONICS ENGINEERS INC2023Quadrupolar susceptibility modeling of substrated metasurfaces with application to the generalized Brewster effect
Olivier Martin, Karim Achouri, Ville Tuovi Tiukuvaara
We derive generalized sheet transition conditions (GSTCs) including dipoles and quadrupoles, using generalized functions (distributions). This derivation verifies that the GSTCs are valid for metasurfaces in non-homogeneous environments, such as for practi ...
Optica Publishing Group2023Ultrabroadband sound control with deep-subwavelength plasmacoustic metalayers
Romain Christophe Rémy Fleury, Hervé Lissek, Stanislav Sergeev
Controlling audible sound requires inherently broadband and subwavelength acoustic solutions, which are to date, crucially missing. This includes current noise absorption methods, such as porous materials or acoustic resonators, which are typically ineffic ...
2023Fabrication and Characterization of the Kirigami-Inspired SMA-Powered Actuator
Yves Perriard, Thomas Guillaume Martinez, Marjan Ghorbani, Sean Thomas, Guilain Lionel Germain Lang
This paper presents an innovative approach to creating Shape Memory Alloys (SMA)-based actuators that are lightweight, compact, and capable of providing large strokes. Inspired by the Kirigami structure, an SMA actuator is designed using the Ω -pattern, wh ...
2023Extreme Spatial Dispersion in Nonlocally Resonant Elastic Metamaterials
Romain Christophe Rémy Fleury, Aleksi Antoine Bossart
To date, the vast majority of architected materials have leveraged two physical principles to control wave behavior, namely, Bragg interference and local resonances. Here, we describe a third path: structures that accommodate a finite number of delocalized ...
