摘要： An apparatus includes at least one conductive layer, an electromagnetic (EM) wave source, and an electron source. The conductive layer has a thickness less than 5 nm. The electromagnetic (EM) wave source is in electromagnetic communication with the at least one conductive layer and transmits a first EM wave at a first wavelength in the at least one conductive layer so as to generate a surface plasmon polariton (SPP) field near a surface of the at least one conductive layer. The electron source propagates an electron beam at least partially in the SPP field so as to generate a second EM wave at a second wavelength less than the first wavelength.

摘要： An optical device is provided having a solid state nonlinear material with a nanostructured extent, in at least one dimension, that is less than about 10 nm or that is at a temperature of less than about 77 K. An electronic band gap, EGap, of the material is at least about twice as large as an energy of a photon with a wavelength, λ, equal to an operational wavelength of the device. The material is characterized by a switching figure of merit, ξ, having a value that is at least about 2π. A dielectric structure is around at least one dimension of the nonlinear material in a geometric arrangement having a characteristic photonic band gap that at least partially overlaps the electronic band gap of the material. At least one waveguide is disposed at the dielectric structure in sufficient proximity with the material for coupling light to the material.

摘要： A dielectric resonator comprising a resonant defect structure diposed in a lattice structure formed of a plurality of multi-dimensional periodically arranged dielectric elements confines electromagnetic energy within a frequency band in the photonic band gap. The frequency band of the confined electromagnetic energy is tunable. The unique structure of the dielectric resonator leads to reduced power dissipation losses when used in microwave and millimeter wave components. Accordingly, the dielectric resonator may be used to produce high quality resonant cavities, filters and power generators.

摘要： A filter utilizes a frequency selective, non-conductive, dielectric structure for filtering electromagnetic energy in the millimeter to far infrared frequency bands. The filter includes a non-conductive, high-dielectric, background material positioned to receive incident electromagnetic energy. A lattice structure comprised of a plurality of elongated elements formed of a non-conductive, high-dielectric material are disposed in a two-dimensional, periodic arrangement in the background material. The elements extend in parallel to one another through the background material for providing a range of frequencies over a band gap in which incident electromagnetic energy within the frequency range of the band gap is substantially prevented from propagating through the lattice structure. The dielectric structure can be adapted to operate as a band stop filter or a low pass filter.
