We demonstrate, both theoretically and numerically, the efficient manipulation of plasmonic Airy beams in linear optical potentials produced by a wedged metal-dielectric-metal structure. By varying angle between metallic plates, we can accelerate, compensate, or reverse self-deflection without compromising self-healing properties. also show that plasmons different wavelengths could be routed into directions, creating new opportunities for steering manipulation.
We propose generalized magnetic mirrors that can be achieved by excitations of sole electric resonances. Conventional approaches to obtain rely heavily on exciting the fundamental dipoles, whereas here we reveal that, besides resonances, resonances higher orders also employed highly efficient mirrors. Based electromagnetic duality, it is shown provide direct demonstrations proposed in a simple system one-dimensional periodic array all-dielectric wires, which may shed new light many advanced...

By studying the scattering of normally incident plane waves by a single nanowire, we reveal indispensable role toroidal multipole excitation in expansions radiating sources. It is found that for both p-polarized and s-polarized waves, dipoles can be effectively excited within homogenous dielectric nanowires optical spectrum regime. We further demonstrate plasmonic core–shell rendered invisible through destructive interference electric dipoles, which may inspire many nanowire-based...

It is shown that dipoles, are negligible under long-wavelength approximations, can be excited within high-permittivity dielectric and significantly influence profile in optical regime. further reveal transparencies core-shell plasmonic classified into two categories: i) trivial transparency with no effective excitations...
Chiral optical effects are generally quantified along some specific incident directions of exciting waves (especially for extrinsic chiralities achiral structures) or defined as direction-independent properties by averaging the responses among all structure orientations. Though great significance various applications, chirality extremization (maximized minimized) with respect to orientations have not been explored, especially in a systematic manner. In this study we examine chiral open...
Strong subwavelength field enhancement has often been assumed to be unique plasmonic nanostructures. Here we propose a type of all-dielectric metamaterials based on split bar resonators. The nano gap at the centre resonant elements results in large local and light localization surrounding medium, which can employed for strong light-matter interactions. In Fano-resonant dielectric metamaterial comprising pairs asymmetric silicon bars, electric amplitude exceeds 120 while averaged...
We study optical wave manipulations through high-index dielectric metalattices in both diffractionless metasurface and diffractive metagrating regimes. It is shown that the collective lattice couplings can be employed to tune excitation efficiencies of all electric magnetic multipoles various orders supported by each particle within metalattice. The interferences those adjusted lead highly asymmetric angular scattering patterns are totally different from isolated particles, which...
We study the scattering of normally incident waves by core-shell nanowires, which support both electric and magnetic resonances. Within such for p-polarized waves, each resonance corresponds to two degenerate channels while only one channel. Consequently, when dipole (ED) (MD) are tuned overlap spectrally, magnitude ED is twice that one, leading a pair angles vanishing scattering. further demonstrate features nanowires polarization dependent, also can be induced Fano resonances due...
Wavelength widely tunable femtosecond sources can be implemented by optically filtering the leftmost/rightmost spectral lobes of a broadened spectrum due to self-phase modulation (SPM) dominated fiber-optic nonlinearities. We numerically and experimentally investigate feasibility implementing such source inside optical fibers with negative group-velocity dispersion (GVD). show that broadening prior soliton fission is SPM generates well-isolated lobes; results in energetic pulses wavelength...

This fundamental model is revisited from a perspective multipolar expansions, hidden dimension it revealed, by establishing subtle connection between the two seemingly unrelated properties Q‐factors far‐field angular radiation patterns. It discovered that both regimes negative positive couplings, significant Q‐factor enhancement...
Abstract Simple superpositions of Laguerre–Gauss beams illustrate, counterintuitively, the difference between two quantities that are commonly conflated: component orbital angular momentum ⟨ l ⟩ in propagation direction z , and total topological charge S which is algebraic sum charges vortices piercing any plane perpendicular to . The examples illustrate contrasting situations: = 0, ≠ 0. In second situation, not only zero but also there no infinite half-space beyond beam waist
