Epsilon-near-zero subwavelength optoelectronics: Electrically tunable ENZ strong coupling

2013 Conference on Lasers and Electro-Optics, CLEO 2013

Jun, Young C.; Reno, J.L.; Sinclair, Michael B.; Brener, Igal B.

We demonstrate a new type of electrically tunable strong coupling between a planar metamaterial layer and an ultra-thin epsilon-near-zero layer made of a doped semiconductor. This can find novel applications in chip-scale infrared optoelectronic devices. © 2013 The Optical Society.

Optical manipulation with plasmonic beam shaping antenna structures

Advances in OptoElectronics

Jun, Young C.; Brener, Igal B.

Near-field optical trapping of objects using plasmonic antenna structures has recently attracted great attention. However, metal nanostructures also provide a compact platform for general wavefront engineering of intermediate and far-field beams. Here, we analyze optical forces generated by plasmonic beam shaping antenna structures and show that they can be used for general optical manipulation such as guiding of a dielectric particle along a linear or curved trajectory. This removes the need for bulky diffractive optical components and facilitates the integration of optical force manipulation into a highly functional, compact system. © 2012 Young Chul Jun and Igal Brener.

Single-mode GaN nanowire lasers

Optics Express

Li, Qiming L.; Wright, Jeremy B.; Chow, Weng W.; Luk, Ting S.; Brener, Igal B.; Lester, Luke F.; Wang, George T.

We demonstrate stable, single-frequency output from single, asfabricated GaN nanowire lasers operating far above lasing threshold. Each laser is a linear, double-facet GaN nanowire functioning as gain medium and optical resonator, fabricated by a top-down technique that exploits a tunable dry etch plus anisotropic wet etch for precise control of the nanowire dimensions and high material gain. A single-mode linewidth of ∼0.12 nm and >18dB side-mode suppression ratio are measured. Numerical simulations indicate that single-mode lasing arises from strong mode competition and narrow gain bandwidth. © 2012 Optical Society of America.
