Rapidly growing demands for fast information processing have launched a race for creating
compact and highly efficient optical devices that can reliably transmit signals without losses …

Optical bound states in the continuum (BIC) are localized states with energy lying above the
light line and having infinite lifetime. Any losses taking place in real systems result in …

Sculpting silicon at the micro and nano scales has been game‐changing to mold bulk silicon
properties and expand, in turn, applications of silicon beyond electronics, namely, in …

We present a theory of topological edge states in one-dimensional resonant photonic
crystals with a compound unit cell. Contrary to the conventional electronic topological states …

We demonstrate with the finite-difference time-domain method that radiative heat transfer
between two parallel gold plates can be significantly enhanced by engraving periodic …

In conventional heterostructures consisting of metal layers and all-dielectric one-
dimensional (1-D) photonic crystals (PCs), optical Tamm states (OTSs) shift toward shorter …

Surface polaritons in an anisotropic media possess a strong dependence of the wave vector
on the propagation direction, which is called the isofrequency contour. This can lead to the …

A novel approach for the enhancement of nonlinear optical effects inside globular photonic
crystals (PCs) is proposed and systematically studied via numerical simulations. The …

We present the design of a dielectric inverse photonic crystal structure that couples line-
defect waveguide propagating modes into highly directional beams of controllable …

More than one order enhancement of third-harmonic generation is observed experimentally
at band-gap pumping of globular photonic crystals. Due to a lateral modulation of the …
