Electro-Optic Effects in Colloidal Dispersion of Metal Nano-Rods in Dielectric Fluid

Electro-Optic Effects in Colloidal Dispersion of Metal Nano-Rods in Dielectric Fluid

In modern transformation optics, one explores metamaterials with properties that vary from point to point in space and time, suitable for application in devices such as an "optical invisibility cloak" and an "optical black hole". We propose an approach to construct spatially varying and switchable metamaterials that are based on colloidal dispersions of metal nano-rods (NRs) in dielectric fluid...

Nano-Engineering of Molecular Interactions in Organic Electro-Optic Materials

Integration of electronic and photonic devices, especially chip-scale integration, is dramatically impacting telecommunication, computing, and sensing technologies (Dalton et. al., 2010; Dalton & Benight, 2011; Benight et. al., 2009). For organic electronics and photonics, control of molecular order is crucial for effective device performance. For organic photonics, formation of molecular aggre...

Soliton electro-optic effects in paraelectrics.

The combination of charge separation induced by the formation of a single photorefractive screening soliton and an applied external bias field in a paraelectric is shown to lead to a family of useful electro-optic guiding patterns and properties.
