Subwavelength light confinement and quantum chaos in micro- and nano-structured metamaterials

Creator:

Govyadinov, Alexander A.

Abstract:

This dissertation concerns a broad range of unique phenomena related to the light propagation at nano- and micro-scales. To access the nano-domain, we introduce anisotropy-based waveguides with positive- and negative-index modes. These novel structures allow energy propagation in subwavelength regions and, in contrast to surface waves, have the mode structure...

New computational methods for determining antikaon-nucleus bound states

Creator:

Fink, Paul J., 1954-

Abstract:

Optical potential for antikaon-nucleus strong interactions are constructed using elementary antikaon-nucleus potentials determined previously. The optical potentials are used to determine the existence of a kaon hypernucleus. Modern three dimensional visualization techniques are used to study model dependences, new methods for speeding the calculation of the optical potential are developed,...

Fiber Bragg grating-tunable diode laser

Creator:

Ericksen, Doug

Abstract:

Continuously tunable diode laser sources coupled to single-mode fiber are useful sources for fiber Bragg grating (FBG) strain sensors. This paper describes the development and fabrication of such a device. An introduction is given describing applications of tunable lasers and some of the different methods of creating a tunable diode...
