    Abstract: A near-field ThermoPhotoVoltaic system comprises a hot emitter and a cold absorbing PhotoVoltaic cell separated by a small gap. The emitter emits hot photons and includes a polaritonic material that supports a surface-polaritonic mode. The PhotoVoltaic cell has a metallic back electrode and includes a semiconductor that absorbs the photons and supports guided photonic modes. The surface-polaritonic mode and the first guided photonic mode resonantly couple at a frequency slightly above the semiconductor bandgap. The system material and geometrical parameters are such that the surface-polaritonic mode and the first guided photonic mode are approximately impedance-matched, so that power is transmitted at frequencies just above the semiconductor bandgap, even for relatively large gap widths, while the power transmitted at other frequencies is relatively small, leading to high system efficiency. Also described the PhotoVoltaic cell's front electrode, which may include highly-doped semiconductor regions, thin conducting oxide or silver films, or graphene layers.

    Abstract: A time varying laser which can operate by taking advantage of transitions between time varying quasi-energy levels which are present in the driven system is disclosed. This can allow for laser operation at frequencies which are new, compared to the operation of the laser in absence of time-modulation. It can also allow for a novel mode of operation in which the system provides gain at multiple frequencies simultaneously, in a coherent fashion which is fundamentally different from multi-mode behavior in conventional lasers. Additionally, in systems with sufficiently strong modulation, these principles can lead to lasers which produce gain even in the thermodynamic ground state of the system, leading to a new form of lasing without inversion (LWI). In addition, these techniques have the potential to be used to create lasers at high frequencies (UV-Xray) which have been difficult to achieve via conventional laser mechanisms.
