  1. 1. InP-based photonic crystals : Processing, Material properties and Dispersion effects

    Author : Audrey Berrier; Srinivasan Anand; Alfred Forchel; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Photonic crystals; indium phosphide; photonic bandgap; Bloch modes; slow light; dispersion; coupled cavity waveguides; chemically assisted ion beam etching; lag effect; cavities; optical losses; carrier transport; carrier lifetimes; negative refraction; photonic bandstructure; Physics; Fysik;

    Abstract : Photonic crystals (PhCs) are periodic dielectric structures that exhibit a photonic bandgap, i.e., a range of wavelength for which light propagation is forbidden. The special band structure related dispersion properties offer a realm of novel functionalities and interesting physical phenomena. READ MORE

  2. 2. Time dependent processes incavity QED

    Author : Jonas Larson; KTH; []
    Keywords : cavity QED; state preparation; non-classical; Jaynes-Cummings model; Fock state; measurement;

    Abstract : Cavity quantum electrodynamics (QED) has become one of themost successful tools for quantum information processing, butalso for the study of other pure quantum effects. In thisthesis we investigate one such system, the micromaser; an atomtraverse a cavity and interacts with the quantized modes of thecavity field. READ MORE

  3. 3. Dispersion Engineering : Negative Refraction and Designed Surface Plasmons in Periodic Structures

    Abstract : The dispersion property of periodic structures is a hot research topic in the last decade. By exploiting dispersion properties, one can manipulate the propagation of electromagnetic waves, and produce effects that do not exist in conventional materials. READ MORE

  4. 4. A Play of Light and Spins: Excitation and Detection of Non-linear Magnetization Dynamics using Light

    Author : Shreyas Muralidhar; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; spin waves; laser-induced magnetization dynamics; Brillouin light scattering; Spin Hall nano-oscillators; neuromorphic computing; Ising machines;

    Abstract : The excitation and detection of magnetization dynamics play key roles in the field of spintronics and magnonics. In this thesis, we investigate a contactless method of exciting nonlinear magnetization dynamics using a femtosecond pulsed laser, and study the same with a Brillouin Light Scattering (BLS) microscope.
