Plasmonic metasurfaces are promising as enablers of nanoscale nonlinear optics and flat
nonlinear optical components. Nonlinear optical responses of such metasurfaces are …

The AlGaAs material platform has been intensively used to develop nonlinear photonic
devices on-a-chip, thanks to its superior nonlinear optical properties. We propose a new …

A collection of N emitters can exhibit an N-fold broadening of the radiative linewidth resulting
from the development of a macroscopic dipole moment. Such a broadening of the radiative …

Nonlinear absorption can limit the efficiency of nonlinear optical devices. However, it can
also be exploited for optical limiting or switching applications. Thus, characterization of …

Determining the achieved spatial resolution in microsphere-assisted microscopy (MAM) has
remained an important and challenging task. While fluorescent-based microscopies use …

The interaction of light with matter is a fundamental process behind a wide variety of
phenomena studied across various disciplines such as optics, condensed matter physics …

This Master's dissertation focuses on exploring optical nonlinearities in IIIV semiconductors.
