Nanophotonic structures with optical surface modes for tunable spin current generation

Serguei Sekatski, Pavel Kapralov

We propose a novel type of photonic-crystal (PC)-based nanostructures for efficient and tunable optically-induced spin current generation via the spin Seebeck and inverse spin Hall effects. It has been experimentally demonstrated that optical surface modes ...

Fiber-interface directional coupler inscribed by femtosecond laser for refractive index measurements

Jiangtao Zhou, Jiachen Wang, Zhechen Zhang, Yiping Wang

A novel fiber-interface directional waveguide coupler was inscribed on the surface of a coreless fiber by femtosecond laser, and was successfully applied to highly sensitive refractive index (RI) measurements. The primary arm was first inscribed to couple ...
