In this paper, the Goos–Hanchen shift (GHS) at the interface between air and the aluminum zinc oxide (AZO)/ZnO hyperbolic metamaterial (AZO-HMM) is theoretically examined. The results herein show that AZO-HMM can enhance the GHS a

The quasi-phase-matching (QPM) technique has drawn increasing attention due to its promising applications in areas such as nonlinear frequency conversion for generating new laser light sources. In this paper, we will briefly revie

Coherent beam combination (CBC) of fiber lasers based on self-imaging properties of a strongly confined tapered waveguide (SCTW) is studied systematically. Analytical formulas are derived for the positions, amplitudes, and phases

The implementation of photoinduced linkage isomerism in molecular-based optical materials represents a promising approach for the synthesis of high-contrast, high-resolution photosensitive materials that are necessary for high-den

We present experimental measurements that show direct determination of the dielectric properties of various metals relevant to plasmonics. In contrast to traditional measurements that typically rely on transmission and reflectance

The optical transmittance properties of single-hole arrays and three-hole chain (vertical) arrays with different geometrical parameters were numerically investigated. It was shown that on increasing the vertical distance between t

A new integrated plasmonic waveguide sensor is reported with high sensitivity (1600 nm/RIU). The integrated structure, loaded with stratified composite, makes this device robust and easy to fabricate on a chip to use as a sensor p
