Title: Sensitive singular-phase optical detection without phase measurements with Tamm plasmons

Abstract

Spectrally-tailored interactions of light with material interfaces have offered many exciting applications in sensing, photo-detection, and optical energy conversion. In particular, complete suppression of light reflectance at select frequencies accompanied by sharp phase variations in the reflected signal forms the basis for the development of ultra-sensitive singular-phase optical detection schemes such as Brewster and surface plasmon interferometry. However, both the Brewster effect and surface-plasmon-mediated absorption on planar interfaces are limited to one polarization of the incident light and oblique excitation angles, and may have limited bandwidth dictated by the material dielectric index and plasma frequency. To alleviate these limitations, we design narrow-band super-absorbers composed of plasmonic materials embedded into dielectric photonic nanostructures with topologically-protected interfacial Tamm plasmon states. These structures have planar geometry and do not require nanopatterning to achieve perfect absorption of both polarizations of the incident light in a wide range of incident angles, including the normal incidence. Their absorption lines are tunable across a very broad spectral range via engineering of the photon bandstructure of the dielectric photonic nanostructures to achieve reversal of the geometrical phase across the interface with the plasmonic absorber. We outline the design strategy to achieve perfect absorptance in Tamm structures with dissipativemore »« less

Topological Engineering of Interfacial Optical Tamm States for Highly Sensitive Near-Singular-Phase Optical Detection

Journal Article Tsurimaki, Yoichiro ; Tong, Jonathan K. ; Boriskin, Victor N. ; ... - ACS Photonics

Here, we developed planar multilayered photonic-plasmonic structures, which support topologically protected optical states on the interface between metal and dielectric materials, known as optical Tamm states. Coupling of incident light to the Tamm states can result in perfect absorption within one of several narrow frequency bands, which is accompanied by a singular behavior of the phase of electromagnetic field. In the case of near-perfect absorptance, very fast local variation of the phase can still be engineered. In this research, we theoretically and experimentally demonstrate how these drastic phase changes can improve sensitivity of optical sensors. A planar Tamm absorber wasmore »« less

Development of a Planar Focusing Collector for CSP

Technical Report Toussaint, Kimani C.

In the field of the concentrating solar power (CSP) technology, the parabolic trough is a common choice for a solar collector. Parabolic troughs are highly reflective curved mirrors that take incident sunlight and focus it onto a line-shaped receiver that runs down the center of troughs. The receivers are generally heat-absorbing pipes containing a heat transfer fluid that delivers the collected thermal energy to steam turbines or engines for generating electricity. However, parabolic troughs are constrained by wind loads and cost of materials and support structure. The goal of this project was to develop a planar focusing collector (PFC) thatmore »« less

Numerical investigation of optical Tamm states in two-dimensional hybrid plasmonic-photonic crystal nanobeams

Journal Article Meng, Zi-Ming ; Hu, Yi-Hua ; Ju, Gui-Fang ; ... - Journal of Applied Physics

Optical Tamm states (OTSs) in analogy with its electronic counterpart confined at the surface of crystals are optical surface modes at the interfaces between uniform metallic films and distributed Bragg reflectors. In this paper, OTSs are numerically investigated in two-dimensional hybrid plasmonic-photonic crystal nanobeams (HPPCN), which are constructed by inserting a metallic nanoparticle into a photonic crystal nanobeam formed by periodically etching square air holes into dielectric waveguides. The evidences of OTSs can be verified by transmission spectra and the field distribution at resonant frequency. Similar to OTSs in one-dimensional multilayer structures OTSs in HPPCN can be excited by bothmore »« less

Transverse-electric Brewster effect enabled by nonmagnetic two-dimensional materials

Journal Article Lin, Xiao ; Shen, Yichen ; Kaminer, Ido ; ... - Physical Review A

It was discovered in the 19th century, the Brewster effect is known to occur for transverse-magnetic waves in regular optical dielectrics; however, it is believed to arise for transverse-electric (TE) waves only in systems with magnetic responses, i.e., nonunity effective relative permeability. This paper introduces a scheme to realize the TE Brewster effect in a homogeneous dielectric interface without magnetic responses, by adding ultrathin two-dimensional (2D) materials such as graphene. In particular, the effect remains even for waves approaching normal incidence, spanning from terahertz to visible frequencies. In contrast to the conventional Brewster effect, the graphene-assisted TE Brewster effect ismore »« less

Technical Report Weiss, Dirk

Crystal-silicon (c-Si) film photovoltaics hold the promise of combining the advantages of state-of-the-art wafer-silicon technology with the scalability and the inherently much lower cost of thin-film solar technologies. In the thickness range of 2-20m very effective light trapping is essential to absorb sufficient red and near-infrared (NIR) light and reach targeted efficiencies of 16% 18%, as defined by the U.S. National Solar Technology Roadmap. One proposed method is diffractive light trapping, which, at least in certain wavelength ranges, can theoretically outperform light trapping through random scattering at a rough surface or interface. The goals of this project were (1) tomore »« less
