A Low-Temperature Annealing Method for Alloy Nanostructures and Metasurfaces: Unlocking a Novel Degree of Freedom

Olivier Martin, Christian Santschi, Hsiang-Chu Wang, Jeonghyeon Kim, Debdatta Ray

The material and exact shape of a nanostructure determine its optical response, which is especially strong for plasmonic metals. Unfortunately, only a few plasmonic metals are available, which limits the spectral range where these strong optical effects ca ...

The Polarity Reversal of Lightning‐Generated Sky Wave

Farhad Rachidi-Haeri, Marcos Rubinstein, Mohammad Azadifar, Wenhao Hou

The polarity reversal of the lightning‐generated first sky wave as a function of the observation distance is studied using a novel approach combining the finite‐difference time domain (FDTD) method and the superposition principle of electromagnetic waves. ...

Scaling effect and its impact on wavelength-scale microlenses

Hans Peter Herzig, Toralf Scharf, Myun Sik Kim

We revisit the scaling laws in micro-optical systems to highlight new phenomena arising beyond a conventional optical regime, especially when the size of the system approaches to the operational wavelength. Our goal is to visualize the impact of the scalin ...

Comment on “Encoding many channels on the same frequency through radio vorticity: first experimental test”

Julien Perruisseau-Carrier, Michele Tamagnone

We show that the public experiment held in Venice by Tamburini et al and reported in 2012 New J. Phys. 14 033001 can be regarded as a particular implementation of multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) communications and, therefore, has no advantages over e ...

Full-field microimaging with 8 keV X-rays achieves a spatial resolutions better than 20 nm

Giorgio Margaritondo

Fresnel zone plates (450 nm thick Au, 25 nm outermost zone width) used as objective lenses in a full field transmission reached a spatial resolution better than 20 nm and 1.5% efficiency with 8 keV photons. Zernike phase contrast was also realized without ...

Normally Incident Wave Propagation across One Joint Set with Virtual Wave Source Method

Jian Zhao, Gaofeng Zhao, Jianbo Zhu

This paper presents an analytical study on normally incident wave propagation across a joint set. Combined with the displacement discontinuity method (DDM), the virtual wave source method (VWSM) is adopted to take account of multiple wave reflections among ...

Infrared Measurements of the RF Output of 170-GHz/2-MW Coaxial Cavity Gyrotron and Its Phase Retrieval Analysis

Timothy Goodman, Stefano Alberti, Jean-Philippe Hogge

We report the experimental results of the infrared measurements of output RF beam of the European 2-MW 170-GHz coaxial cavity gyrotron for ITER. The output beam profile is measured by the infrared thermographic technique using an infrared camera and a targ ...

Fabrication of Fresnel zone plates for hard X-rays

A method to fabricate gold structures with high aspect ratio is presented. Fresnel zone plates with an outermost zone width of 100nm and structures of 1μm height are fabricated. Preliminary focusing results at an X-ray energy of 8keV are presented and ways ...

Nanometer focusing properties of Fresnel zone plates described by dynamical diffraction theory

The x-ray focusing properties of linear Fresnel zone plates have been derived by solving the Helmholtz equation for the field propagating through the zones. We consider the imaging of a point object into the first diffraction order of a volume zone plate h ...

Numerical reconstruction of digital holograms : application to phase-contrast imaging and microscopy

Etienne Cuche

This thesis presents a new method for the numerical reconstruction of digital holograms recorded in the off-axis configuration using a CCD camera. The propagation of the reconstructed wave front, from the hologram plane to an observation plane, is achieved ...
