We introduce the refractiveindex. info database, a comprehensive open-source repository
containing optical constants for a wide array of materials, and describe in detail the …

The requirements for an optical sensor are high: the sensor should be reliable, quick, and
simple, and all these features must be provided at ultralow fabrication costs. The …

Surface lattice resonances (SLRs) sustained by ordered metal arrays are characterized by
their narrow spectral features, remarkable quality factors, and the ability to tune their spectral …

Miniaturized laser sources with low threshold power are required for integrated photonic
devices. Photostable core/shell nanocrystals are well suited as gain material and their laser …

Nanoparticles (NPs) generated by pulsed‐laser ablation in liquids (PLAL) have benefited
many key applications due to their versatility, enlarged surface area, and high purity …

The group index, n _g, group velocity dispersion (GVD), and scattering attenuation
coefficient, μ _s, were measured for dilutions of glycerol, ethanol, and Intralipid 20% with …

As a result of their coherent interaction, two-dimensional periodic arrays of metallic
nanostructures support collective modes commonly known as lattice resonances. Among …

Phase change materials (PCM) have greatly contributed to optics with applications ranging
from rewritable memories to smart windows. This is possible thanks to the variation in optical …

Due to low losses, optical fibers are excellent optical waveguides, but manipulating the
wavefront below the diffraction limit while keeping fabrication costs down is a significant …

For efficient coherent generation at various wavelengths from nonlinear metasurfaces, we
need to generate multiple high-Q resonances with single metasurfaces. In this report, we …
