Photonic devices

Photonic devices are components for creating, manipulating or detecting light. This can include laser diodes, light-emitting diodes, solar and photovoltaic cells, displays and optical amplifiers. Other examples are devices for modulating a beam of light and for combining and separating beams of light of different wavelength.

Active control of anapole states by structuring the phase-change alloy Ge₂Sb₂Te₅

High-index dielectric nanoparticles support a great wealth of multipolar responses but active tunability is still elusive. Here, the authors report how structured Ge₂Sb₂Te₅ can support multipolar Mie resonances and demonstrate the spectral shifting between electric dipole and anapole modes.

Miniature lasers: Is metal a friend or foe?

A thorough study comparing the performance of more than a hundred photonic and plasmonic lasers concludes that the latter are advantageous when their cavity volumes are close to the diffraction limit.
