Metamaterial graphene photodetector with bandwidth exceeding 500 gigahertz

Yesim Koyaz

Although graphene has met many of its initially predicted optoelectronic, thermal, and mechanical properties, photodetectors with large spectral bandwidths and extremely high frequency responses remain outstanding. In this work, we demonstrate a >500 gigah ...

Methods for acute and long-term imaging of the ventral nerve cord in behaving adult Drosophila

Laura Joan Hermans

Understanding how neural circuits remodel and adapt to animal behavior is a central theme in the field of Neuroscience. One strategy to reach this goal is to repeatedly record the same animal's neural circuits and observe how they adapt when facing differe ...

Integration of MEMS in Silicon Photonics

Alain Yuji Takabayashi

Like integrated electronics, integrated photonics such as Silicon Photonics benefit from increased device-density on a single chip. Silicon is an excellent material for integrated photonics because its high refractive index allows devices to be made small, ...

Fundamentals and perspectives of ultrafast photoferroic recording

Anna Pogrebna

The ability to switch ferroics (ferro-, ferri-, antiferromagnets, ferroelectrics, multiferroics) between two stable bit states is one of the keystones of modern data storage technology. Due to many new ideas, originating from fundamental research during th ...

III-nitride photonic cavities

Nicolas Grandjean, Raphaël Butté

Owing to their wide direct bandgap tenability, III-nitride (III-N) compound semiconductors have been proven instrumental in the development of blue light-emitting diodes that led to the so-called solid-state lighting revolution and blue laser diodes that a ...

Brillouin scattering in gas-filled hollow-core fibres

Flavien Gyger

Edward E. Hagenlocker and William G. Rado demonstrated Brillouin interaction in gas for the first time in 1965, right after the very first demonstrations of stimulated Brillouin scattering in solid materials. In their experiment, they used a megawatt pulse ...

Integrated elastomer-based device for measuring the mechanics of adherent cell monolayers

Herbert Shea, Cristina Martin Olmos, Alexandre Poulin, Francesca Sorba

Cells in the body collectively sustain mechanical deformations in almost all physiological functions. From the morphogenesis stage, cells' ability to sustain stress is essential for the body's well-being. Several pathologies have been associated with abnor ...

Advanced Diamond Microfabrication for Microoptics and Photonics

Marcell Kristof Kiss

Diamond is an exceptional material - hard, stiff, transparent, which makes it ideal for the fabrication of optical and mechanical systems that take advantage of these properties. Diamond is not only "better", but it offers the possibility of integrating br ...

All-optically induced quasi phase matching in SiN waveguides for second harmonic generation enhancement

Tobias Kippenberg, Camille Sophie Brès, Martin Hubert Peter Pfeiffer, Davide Grassani, Svyatoslav Kharitonov, Adrien Billat

We report more than 30dB second harmonic generation enhancement in SiN waveguide by all-optical writing of a persistent χ(2) grating. Phase matching peaks are observed for different writing wavelengths. ...

Simultaneous observation of the quantization and the interference pattern of a plasmonic near-field

Fabrizio Carbone, Tom Theodorus Antonius Lummen, Brett Eugene Barwick, Luca Piazza, Yoshie Murooka

Surface plasmon polaritons can confine electromagnetic fields in subwavelength spaces and are of interest for photonics, optical data storage devices and biosensing applications. In analogy to photons, they exhibit wave-particle duality, whose different as ...

Effect of the thin-film limit on the measurable optical properties of graphene

Christophe Ballif, Stefaan De Wolf, Sylvain Nicolay, Jakub Holovsky

The fundamental sheet conductance of graphene can be directly related to the product of its absorption coefficient, thickness and refractive index. The same can be done for graphene's fundamental opacity if the so-called thin-film limit is considered. Here ...
