Journal Article
Abram, R., Greshnov, A., Brand, S., & Kaliteevski, M. (2017). A study of a phase formalism for calculating the cumulative density of states of one-dimensional photonic crystals. Journal of Modern Optics, 64(15), 1501-1509. https://doi.org/10.1080/09500340.2017.1296597

We explore a phase formalism that underpins a method of calculation of the cumulative density of states of one-dimensional photonic crystals based on the node counting theorem. Node counting is achieved by considering the spatial dependence of a phas...

Some theory of a dual-polarization interferometer for sensor applications (2015)
Journal Article

It is shown that by making straightforward approximations it is possible to simplify the analysis of the measurements of a well-established dual-waveguide interferometer for sensor applications. In particular we derive approximate algebraic formulae... Read More about Some theory of a dual-polarization interferometer for sensor applications.

Tamm plasmon polaritons in multilayered cylindrical structures (2012)
Journal Article

It is shown that cylindrical Bragg reflector structures with either a metal core, a metal cladding, or both can support Tamm plasmon polaritons (TPPs) that can propagate axially along the interface between the metallic layer and the adjacent dielectr...

Conventional frustrated internal reflection in which light is able to tunnel across a small air gap between two prisms is a well known phenomenon. In this work, an experimental proof-of-concept demonstration of a polarization and highly wavelength se...

Negative refraction and the spectral filtering of terahertz radiation by a photonic crystal prism. Optics Letters, 36(9), 1641-1643. https://doi.org/10.1364/ol.36.001641

We demonstrate how micromachined photonic crystals can be used to negatively refract terahertz frequency light. The photonic crystals, which are constructed from conventional dielectric materials, manipulate the incident beam via interaction with the...

An 'electromagnetic wiggler' originating from refraction of waves at the side edge of a Bragg reflector (2011)
Journal Article

Calculations are reported which predict that light incident on the side edge of a Bragg reflector can show varied and unusual refraction behaviour, including a rapid transition from positive to negative refraction. Although under certain conditions n... Read More about An 'electromagnetic wiggler' originating from refraction of waves at the side edge of a Bragg reflector.

We have demonstrated theoretically that it is possible to use the resonant coupling of exciton-polaritons in a planar microcavity and Tamm plasmons at a metal film on the surface of the structure to provide lateral spatial control of the exciton-pola...

Interface states are known to exist at the surface of an appropriately structured Bragg reflector. If such reflectors are present on the surfaces of two prisms separated by a narrow gap, the evanescently coupled interface states can interact to produ...
