External cavity tunable lasers have been around for many years and now constitute a large
group of semiconductor lasers featuring very unique properties. The present review has …

The topic of thin film optics/thin film optical spectroscopy can be tackled as a particular case
of a broader class of phenomena, concerned with the interaction of electromagnetic …

A high-efficiency guided-mode resonance reflection filter is reported. The device consists of
a surface-relief photoresist grating and an underlying HfO_2 waveguide layer deposited on …

New reflection and transmission optical filters based on guided-mode resonances in
multilayer waveguide gratings are characterized and compared with homogeneous thin-film …

Here we report a compact multilayer film structure for angle robust color filtering, which is
verified by theoretical calculations and experiment results. The introduction of the …

It is shown that the guided-mode resonance effects associated with waveguide gratings can
be used to realize transmission bandpass filters. The key idea is the integration of the …

Violating of traditional Kirchhoff's law has been a topic of active research because of the
possibilities for engineering thermal radiation. An alternative paradigm consisting of zero …

Ultrafast-optics applications of nonlinear-optical processes in gas-filled hollow fibers are
briefly reviewed. The main physical processes behind the use of hollow fibers for efficient …

A second-order finite-element adaptive strategy with error control for one-dimensional
grating problems is developed. The unbounded computational domain is truncated to a …
