SUMMARY:Photonics Seminar: Mikhail Shalaev\, Duke University
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Mikhail Shalaev\, Duke University \nTitle: Metamaterials and Topology-Enabled Light-Matter Interactions \nAbstract: Rapid development of nano-fabrication techniques in recent years enabled the possibility to create structures on the nanometer scale with dimensions comparable and even much smaller than light wavelength.These structures allow to control and manipulate light propagation and may find application for optical highly efficient communication systems. In this talk I will consider three kinds of photonic structures. First\, I will talk about topological photonic crystals for robust and scattering-freelight propagation. Second\, I will discuss dielectric silicon-based metasurfaces for efficient control on light propagation in transmission mode at telecommunication frequencies.Finally\, I will cover theoretical description of second harmonic light generation in optical metamaterials with vortex beams. \nBio: Mikhail Shalaev is Ph.D. student in the Electrical andComputer Science Department at Duke University. Hisresearch is focused on nanophotonics\, topological photonics\,metasurfaces\, metamaterials and nonlinear optics. \nFor more information about joining in on Zoom\, contact Leah Abraha at labraha@gc.cuny.edu

SUMMARY:Photonics Seminar: Mikhail Sumetsky\, Aston University (UK)
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Mikhail Sumetsky\, Aston University (UK) \nTitle: Surface nanoscale axial photonics \nAbstract: Surface Nanoscale Axial Photonics (SNAP) platform\, introduced in 2011\, enables fabrication of nanoscale-shallow microresonator structures at the surface of an optical fiber with subangstrom precision. It employs whispering gallery modes circulating and slowly propagating along the fiber. First\, I review the SNAP theory\, which resembles one-dimensional quantum mechanics\, and its fabrication methods. Next\, I discuss our recent experimental and theoretical results on interplaying slow and tunnelling light\, resonant tunnelling\, and nonlinear SNAP. Finally\, I switch to microfluidics and describe our recent experiments where temporary and permanent SNAP microresonators are induced by water in silica microcapillaries. \nBio: Michael (Misha) Sumetsky graduated from the Saint-Petersburg State University\, Russia\, and has Ph.D. (1979) and D.Sc. (1989) degrees from the same University. He worked at the Physics Department of Saint-Petersburg University of Telecommunications (Russia) from 1979 till 1995 when he joined Bell Laboratories (USA). In 2001\, Dr Sumetsky continued his research at OFS Labs after transition of the Optical Fiber Research Department of Bell Labs into the OFS Labs of the Furukawa Electric Company. In 2013\, he joined Aston University (UK) as a Professor of Photonics. \nFor more information about joining in on Zoom\, contact Leah Abraha at labraha@gc.cuny.edu
