A multilayer metamaterial with switchable functionalities is presented based on the phase-transition property of vanadium dioxide. When vanadium dioxide is in the metallic state, a broadband absorber is formed. Calculated results show that the combination of two absorption peaks enables absorptance more than 90% in the wide spectral range from 0.393 THz to 0.897 THz. Absorption performance is insensitive to polarization at the small incident angle and work well even at the larger incident angle. When vanadium dioxide is in the insulating state, the designed system behaves as a narrowband absorber at the frequency of 0.677 THz. Mizagliflozin SGLT inhibitor This narrowband absorber shows the advantages of wide angle and polarization insensitivity due to the localized magnetic resonance. Furthermore, the influences of geometrical parameters on the performance of absorptance are discussed. The proposed switchable absorber can be used in various applications, such as selective heat emitter and solar photovoltaic field.Advances in mid-IR lasers, detectors, and nanofabrication technology have enabled new device architectures to implement on-chip sensing applications. In particular, direct integration of plasmonic resonators with a dielectric waveguide can generate an ultra-compact device architecture for biochemical sensing via surface-enhanced infrared absorption (SEIRA) spectroscopy. A theoretical investigation of such a hybrid architecture is imperative for its optimization. In this work, we investigate the coupling mechanism between a plasmonic resonator array and a waveguide using temporal coupled-mode theory and numerical simulation. The results conclude that the waveguide transmission extinction ratio reaches maxima when the resonator-waveguide coupling rate is maximal. Moreover, after introducing a model analyte in the form of an oscillator coupled with the plasmonics-waveguide system, the transmission curve with analyte absorption can be fitted successfully. We conclude that the extracted sensing signal can be maximized when analyte absorption frequency is the same as the transmission minima, which is different from the plasmonic resonance frequency. This conclusion is in contrast to the dielectric resonator scenario and provides an important guideline for design optimization and sensitivity improvement of future devices.There is a world-wide push to create the next-generation all-optical transmission and switching technologies for exascale data centers. In this paper we focus on the switching fabrics. Many different types of 2D architectures are being explored including MEMS/waveguides and semiconductor optical amplifiers. However, these tend to suffer from high, path-dependent losses and crosstalk issues. The technologies with the best optical properties demonstrated to date in large fabrics (>100 ports) are 3D MEMS beam steering approaches. These have low average insertion losses and, equally important, a narrow loss distribution. However, 3D MEMS fabrics are generally dismissed from serious consideration for this application because of their slow switching speeds (∼few milliseconds) and high costs ($100/port). In this paper we show how novel feedforward open loop controls can solve both problems by improving MEMS switching speeds by two orders of magnitude and costs by a factor of three. With these improvements in hand, we believe 3D MEMS fabrics can become the technology of choice for data centers.We propose and demonstrate an external-feedback semiconductor laser-based chaos generation scheme supporting simultaneous bandwidth enhancement and excellent time-delay-signature (TDS) suppression, by using parallel-coupling ring resonators (PCRR) as reflector. The characteristics of effective bandwidth and TDS of chaotic signals generated in three indicative PCRR configurations are thoroughly investigated. The numerical results demonstrate that with the nonlinear feedback of PCRR, the TDS of chaos can be efficiently suppressed toward an indistinguishable level, and the bandwidth of chaos in the proposed scheme can also be enhanced, with respect to the conventional optical feedback configuration. The proposed scheme shows a flexible way to generate wideband complex chaos.Strongly confined surface waves can be achieved on periodically structured metal surfaces and are known as spoof surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs). In this work, several terahertz SPP devices based on curved waveguides are demonstrated. The transmittance and bending loss of 90-degree curved spoof SPP waveguides with a radius of curvature ranging from 200 to 2300 µm are investigated to identify the regime for high transmission. A commutator is designed and experimentally demonstrated. Furthermore, coupling equations are derived and verified for efficient coupling between bend-straight waveguides and between bend-bend waveguides. The results will be of great value for future integrated terahertz plasmonic systems.Graphene exhibits remarkable optical and electronic properties when interacts with electromagnetic field. These properties play a vital role in a broad range of applications, such as, optical communication, optical storage, biomedical imaging and security purposes. Based on electromagnetically induced grating (EIG), we study lensless holographic imaging via quantized energy levels of two-dimensional (2D) monolayer graphene model. We observe that by exploiting electromagnetically induced grating (EIG), holographic interference patterns via electromagnetically induced classical holographic imaging (EICHI) and, non locally, electromagnetically induced quantum holographic imaging (EIQHI) can be obtained in the infrared range (THz) of the spectrum. We notice that for EIQHI one can obtain image magnification using monolayer graphene via manipulation of certain controllable parameters. The scheme provides an experimentally viable option for the classical and quantum mechanical holographic imaging and possibilities for the design of graphene-based quantum mechanical devices which can have many applications.We propose a one-step scheme for implementing multi-qubit phase gates on microwave photons in multiple resonators mediated by a superconducting bus in circuit quantum electrodynamics (QED) system. In the scheme, multiple single-mode resonators carry quantum information with their vacuum and single-photon Fock states, and a multi-level artificial atom acts as a quantum bus which induces the indirect interaction among resonators. The method of pulse engineering is used to shape the coupling strength between resonators and the bus so as to improve the fidelity and robustness of the scheme. We also discuss the influence of finite coherence time for the bus and resonators on gate fidelity respectively. Finally, we consider the suppression of unwanted transitions and propose the method of optimized detuning compensation for offsetting unwanted transitions, showing the feasibility of the scheme within the current experiment technology.
