Title: High order plasmonic vortex generation based on spiral nanoslits
Author: Gbur, Greg, Yu, Jiayi, Fang, Jing, Cai, Yangjian
Date Created: 2021
Subjects--Topical: Physics, Optics
Description: Highly localized plasmonic vortices carrying orbital angular momentum are of importance for many applications. Yet, it is a challenge to generating plasmonic vortex with a high topological charge because of no available technique. Here, a novel pl...

Title: Controlled coherence plasmonic light sources
Author: Gbur, Greg, Smith, Matt
Date Created: 2021
Subjects--Topical: Physics, Optics
Description: Through a computational model, we study the coherence converting capabilities of an array of holes in a surface plasmon-supporting metal plate, with an eye towards the creation of controlled coherence plasmonic light sources. We evaluate how the a...

Title: Second- order statistical properties of conjugate mode double-H partially coherent beams in turbulence
Author: Gbur, Greg, Yu, Jiayi, Cai, Yangjian, Lin, Rong
Date Created: 2021
Subjects--Topical: Physics, Optics
Description: We present an analysis of the propagation properties of a recently introduced class of conjugate mode partially coherent beams (called double-H beams) in a turbulent atmosphere using the extended Huygens-Fresnel integral. We investigate how the ph...

Title: Freeform Optical Surface Form Metrology with Serial Data Acquisition
Author: Noste, Todd
Date Created: 2021
Subjects--Topical: Mechanical engineering, Optics, Physics
Description: Freeform optics, or optics with no axis of rotational invariance, provide optical designers more degrees of freedom, flexibility, and opportunity for innovation increasing optical performance and system integration while decreasing the form factor...

Title: Experimental Study on Autocorrelated Femtosecond-Laser Ablation of Monolayer Transition Metal Dichalcogenides
Author: Obeid, Joseph
