Engineering Localized Modes via Drive and Dissipation in Photonic Lattices
Offered By: PCS Institute for Basic Science via YouTube
Course Description
Overview
Explore the cutting-edge techniques for engineering localized modes in photonic structures through a 40-minute conference talk by Alberto Amo from PCS Institute for Basic Science. Delve into the interplay of constructive and destructive interference in periodic photonic lattices, which forms the basis for defect modes in photonic bandgaps, bound states in the continuum, and compact localized states in flat bands. Discover how the addition of external optical drives with controlled phase in lattices of lossy resonators made of coupled semiconductor micropillars expands the possibilities for manipulating interference effects and designing novel types of localized modes. Learn about the achievement of light localization down to a single site of a photonic lattice in a fully reconfigurable manner, and explore the engineering of dissipative solitons in topological gaps. Gain insights into the potential of these reconfigurable localized modes for enhancing nonlinear effects and controlling light-matter interactions with single-site resolution, as demonstrated through recent research findings and references to published works in the field of modern photonics.
