Four-channel prototype using coherent combining of ultrashort laser pulses for dipole configuration approximation

This paper presents a four-channel prototype system for the geometric combining and coherent addition of tightly focused femtosecond laser radiation into a standing-wave field configuration. A stabilization system for beam pointing and relative phase of the four optical channels has been implemented, and its performance has been experimentally demonstrated. To characterize the standing-wave electromagnetic field distribution at the main focus of the system, an original measurement technique based on a fiber subwavelength optical probe has been employed. This work has been conducted in support of the exawatt-scale XCELS project.

Electrical properties of highly-doped MBE-grown gallium phosphide nanowires

Efficient doping of semiconductor nanowires remains a major challenge towards the commercialization of nanowire-based devices. In this work we investigate the growth regimes and electrical properties of MBE-grown p- and n-type gallium phosphide nanowires doped with Be and Si respectively. Electrical conductivity of individual nanowires is quantitatively studied via atomic force microscopy supported with numerical analysis. Based on conductivity measurements, we provide growth strategies for achieving the doping level up to 5E18 and 2E19 $cm^{-3}$ for GaP:Si and GaP:Be nanowires respectively, which is high enough to be demanded for technological applications.

Control of NV center radiation in nanodiamonds by silicon nanoantennas

The development of nanophotonics systems for the manipulation of the luminescent properties of single quantum emitters is essential for quantum communication and computing. Dielectric nanosystems enable various opportunities for light control through inherent electric and magnetic resonances, however their full potential has not yet been discovered. Here, the emission properties of NV centers in nanodiamonds placed in the near-field zone of silicon nanoresonators are investigated. It is demonstrated experimentally that the spontaneous emission rate of single NV centers in 50 nm nanodiamonds can be modified by their coupling to spherical nanoantennas, reducing the mode of the lifetime distribution by approximately 2 times from 16 ns to 9 ns. It is also shown that the collected intensity of photoluminescence emission from the multiple NV centers in 150 nm nanodiamond coupled to a cylindrical nanoantenna is increased by more than 50% compared to the intensity from the same nanodiamond on a bare substrate

Crystal polarity discrimination for GaN nanowires on graphene

We present experimental data and computational analysis of the formation of GaN nanowires on graphene virtual substrates. We show that GaN nanowires on graphene exhibit nitrogen polarity. We employ the DFT-based computational analysis to demonstrate that among different possible configurations of Ga and N atoms only the N-polar one is stable. We suggest that polarity discrimination occurs due to the dipole interaction between the GaN nanocrystal and $π$-orbitals of the graphene sheet.

Broadband antireflection with halide-perovskite metasurfaces

Meta-optics based on optically-resonant dielectric nanostructures is a rapidly developing research field with many potential applications. Halide perovskite metasurfaces emerged recently as a novel platform for meta-optics, and they offer unique opportunities for control of light in optoelectronic devices. Here we employ the generalized Kerker conditions to overlap electric and magnetic Mie resonances in each meta-atom of MAPbBr3 perovskite metasurface and demonstrate broadband suppression of reflection down to 4%. We reveal also that metasurface nanostructuring is also beneficial for the enhancement of photoluminescence. Our results may be useful for applications of nanostructured halide perovskites in photovoltaics and semi-transparent multifunctional metadevices where reflection reduction is important for their high efficiency.

Two-dimensional optical plasmons with mixed polarization on anisotropic resonant metasurface

Optical metasurfaces have great potential to form the platform for manipulation of surface waves. A plethora of advanced surface-wave phenomena utilizing negative refraction, self-collimation and channeling of 2D waves can be realized through on-demand engineering of dispersion properties of a periodic metasurface. In this letter, we report on the first-time direct experimental polarization-resolved measurement of dispersion of 2D optical plasmons supported by an anisotropic metasurface. We demonstrate that a subdiffractive array of strongly coupled resonant anisotropic plasmonic nanoparticles supports unusual optical surface waves with mixed TE- and TM-like polarizations. With the assistance of numerical simulations we identify dipole and quadrupole dispersion bands. The shape of isofrequency contours changes drastically with frequency exhibiting nontrivial transformations of their curvature and topology that is consistently confirmed by the experimental data. By revealing polarization degree of freedom for surface waves, our results open new routes for designing of planar on-chip devices for surface photonics.

Tuning of Hybrid Oligomers via Nanoscale fs-Laser Reshaping

Various clusters of metallic or dielectric nanoparticles can exhibit sharp Fano resonances originating from at least two modes interference of different spectral width. However, for practical applications such as biosensing or nonlinear nanophotonics, the fine-tuning of the Fano resonances is generally required. Here, we propose and demonstrate a novel type of hybrid oligomers consisting of asymmetric metal-dielectric (Au/Si) nanoparticles with a sharp Fano resonance in visible range, which has a predominantly magnetic origin. We demonstrate both, numerically and experimentally, that such hybrid nanoparticle oligomers allow fine-tuning of the Fano resonance via fs-laser induced melting of Au nanoparticles at the nanometer scale. We show that the Fano resonance wavelength can be changed by fs-laser reshaping very precisely (within 15~nm) being accompanied by a reconfiguration of its profile.

Tuning of magnetic optical response in a dielectric nanoparticle by ultrafast photo-injection of dense electron-hole plasma

We propose a novel approach for efficient tuning of optical properties of a high refractive index subwavelength nanoparticle with a magnetic Mie-type resonance by means of femtosecond laser irradiation. This concept is based on ultrafast photo-injection of dense (>10^20 cm^-3) electron-hole plasma within such nanoparticle, drastically changing its transient dielectric permittivity. This allows to manipulate by both electric and magnetic nanoparticle responses, resulting in dramatic changes of its scattering diagram and scattering cross section. We experimentally demonstrate 20 % tuning of reflectance of a single silicon nanoparticle by femtosecond laser pulses with wavelength in the vicinity of the magnetic dipole resonance. Such single-particle nanodevice enables to design fast and ultracompact optical switchers and modulators.

Novel hyperbolic metamaterials based on multilayer graphene structures

We suggest a new class of hyperbolic metamaterials for THz frequencies based on multilayer graphene structures. We calculate the dielectric permittivity tensor of the effective nonlocal medium with a periodic stack of graphene layers and demonstrate that tuning from elliptic to hyperbolic dispersion can be achieved with an external gate voltage. We reveal that such graphene structures can demonstrate a giant Purcell effect that can be used for boosting the THz emission in semiconductor devices. Tunability of these structures can be enhanced further with an external magnetic field which leads to the unconventional hybridization of the TE and TM polarized waves.
