Advanced methods for Brillouin based distributed optical fiber sensors

After more than thirty years of continuous research and development, the performances of conventional Brillouin based distributed optical fiber sensors (DOFS) are now peaking, as they are facing fundamental barriers that restrict the power of the light inj ...

Fluctuation-dissipation relations in the absence of detailed balance: formalism and applications to active matter

Ignacio Pagonabarraga Mora, Sara Dal Cengio

We present a comprehensive study about the relationship between the way detailed balance is broken in non-equilibrium systems and the resulting violations of the fluctuation-dissipation theorem. Starting from stochastic dynamics with both odd and even vari ...

Microwave or millimeter wave passive components or devices

Maliheh Khatibi Moghaddam, Romain Christophe Rémy Fleury

A passive device comprising a hollow waveguide including first and second wall structures extending in a guiding direction, an interconnecting base extending between the wall structures and an enclosure extending between the wall structures, the enclosure ...

Stochastic gravitational-wave background from metastable cosmic strings

Valerie Fiona Domcke

A metastable cosmic-string network is a generic consequence of many grand unified theories (GUTs) when combined with cosmic inflation. Metastable cosmic strings are not topologically stable, but decay on cosmic time scales due to pair production of GUT mon ...

Integrated photonics enables continuous-beam electron phase modulation

Rui Ning Wang, Tobias Kippenberg, Junqiu Liu, Arslan Sajid Raja, Guanhao Huang, Yujia Yang

Integrated photonics facilitates extensive control over fundamental light-matter interactions in manifold quantum systems including atoms(1), trapped ions(2,3), quantum dots(4) and defect centres(5). Ultrafast electron microscopy has recently made free-ele ...

Strong plasmon-exciton coupling in transition metal dichalcogenides and plasmonic nanostructures

Yang Li, Wen Chen

Achieving strong coupling between emitters and cavity photons holds an important position in the light-matter interaction due to its applications such as polariton lasing, all-optical switches, and quantum information processing. However, room-temperature ...

Universal pair polaritons in a strongly interacting Fermi gas

Jean-Philippe Brantut, Victor Youri Helson, Kevin Etienne Robert Roux, Hideki Konishi

Cavity quantum electrodynamics (QED) manipulates the coupling of light with matter, and allows several emitters to couple coherently with one light mode1. However, even in a many-body system, the light–matter coupling mechanism has so far been restricted t ...

On the optimal controllability time for linear hyperbolic systems with time-dependent coefficients

Hoài-Minh Nguyên

The optimal time for the controllability of linear hyperbolic systems in one dimensional space with one-side controls has been obtained recently for time-independent coefficients in our previous works. In this paper, we consider linear hyperbolic systems w ...

Smooth GaN membranes by polarization-assisted electrochemical etching

Jean-François Carlin, Nicolas Grandjean, Joachim Armand Simonne Ciers

III-nitride membranes offer promising perspectives and improved device designs in photonics, electronics, and optomechanics. However, the removal of the growth substrate often leads to a rough membrane surface, which increases scattering losses in optical ...
