We believe the optical phase amplifier presented in this work could be used in numerous precision measurement scenarios, such as the measurements of the optical properties (for example, dispersion and absorption coefficients) of transparent materials13,14, other physical quantities such as displacements,...
Optical cycles are much too fast to allow direct temporal light shaping, while direct modulation of the wavelength bandwidth lacks sophistication (mostly based on thin-film interference and absorption). For this reason, temporal light shaping reduces to spatial light shaping of the frequency components...
fluorescence - light emitted during absorption of radiation of some other (invisible) wavelength friar's lantern, ignis fatuus, jack-o'-lantern, will-o'-the-wisp - a pale light sometimes seen at night over marshy ground gaslight - light yielded by the combustion of illuminating gas glowing, ...
normally at differentFraunhofer linesofsolar spectrum. (Inphysicsand optics, the Fraunhofer lines are a set ofspectral linesnamed after the German physicist Joseph von Fraunhofer (1787–1826). The lines were originally observed as dark features (absorption lines) in theoptical spectrumof the Sun.)...
Upon photon absorption, the equilibrium between the two conformations should shift toward conformation 2. Correspondingly, at some point of the back-reaction, conformation 2 should start passing into conformation 1 and, thus, the equilibrium should be restored. From this point of view conformation 1...
on the assumption that the atoms can only have discrete energy values, and that the discontinuous transitions between them are connected with the emission or absorption of energy quantum. This threw some light on the fact that in their gaseous state elements and their compounds radiate and absorb...
A large body of previous work has shown that structuring objects with nanoscale features can enhance absorption and emission, effectively trapping photons in a tiny hall of mirrors. But no one had defined the fundamental limits of the possible, leaving open major questions about how to assess a ...
The first is the achievement of narrow gap semiconductor physics, such as: narrow gap width formula and intrinsic absorption coefficient expression, which are very important. Of course, other results such as the expression of intrinsic carrier concentration, the expression of the effective mass of th...
III-V semiconductor; nanowire; absorption; solar cell; photodetector1. Introduction III-V semiconductors (III-Vs) allow for a large tunability for absorption-based applications through the choice of III-Vs used [1]. In the form of nanowires (see Figure 1), the optical response, including the...
