This article aims at studying the angular scattering properties of bianisotropic metasurfaces and clarifying the different roles played by tangential and normal polarization densities. Different types of metasurfaces are considered for this study and are c ...
We provide a detailed discussion on the electromagnetic modeling and classification of polarization converting bianisotropic metasurfaces. To do so, we first present a general approach to compute the scattering response of suchmetasurfaces, which relies on ...
We study the angular scattering behavior of bianisotropic metasurfaces and deduce relationships between the corresponding symmetrical angular scattering properties and the structural symmetries of their scattering particles. This may be of practical intere ...
Scattering particles constitute a key light trapping solution for thin film photovoltaics where either the particles are embedded in the light absorbing layer or a thick layer of them is used as a reflector. Here we introduce a monolayer of wavelength-scal ...
Spherical dielectric particles, nanofibers, and nanorods have been widely used as embedded scattering objects in nanostructured thin film solar cells. Here we propose micron-scale rod-like dielectric particles as a more effective alternative to the spheric ...
We apply a Fourier-scattering model to describe light scattering in solar cells with textured surfaces. For the size and inclination angle of typical micro-textures, scattering may occur into large angles. This makes the model prone to paraxial errors. We ...
Diffraction properties of thin films of dewetted cyanine dye droplets are investigated and related to the complex refractive index. Strong changes in the index of refraction are often found near the absorption edge of organic dyes. Within a small window of ...
We derive and discuss general physical bounds on the electromagnetic scattering and absorption of passive structures. Our theory, based on passivity and power conservation, quantifies the minimum and maximum allowed scattering for an object that absorbs a ...
In this thesis, we discuss the problems of scattering and optical manipulation related to nanosystems of different complexities. The multipolar decomposition method is used to represent scattering processes in nanosystems as a series of elementary excitati ...
This dataset accompanies the publication "Best practices in measuring absorption at the macro- and microscale" published in APL Photonics. The data can be used to reproduce original plots in figures 1-4 in the main text and all original plots in the suppor ...
