Low threshold gain metal coated laser nanoresonators (2008)
Journal Article
Mizrahi, A., Lomakin, V., Slutsky, B., Nezhad, M., Feng, L., & Fainman, Y. (2008). Low threshold gain metal coated laser nanoresonators. Optics Letters, 33(11), 1261-1263. https://doi.org/10.1364/OL.33.001261

We introduce a low refractive index layer between the metal and the gain medium in metal-coated laser resonators and demonstrate that it can significantly reduce the dissipation losses. Analysis of a gain medium waveguide shows that for a given waveg... Read More about Low threshold gain metal coated laser nanoresonators.

Metal coated subwavelength laser resonators with low threshold gain (2008)
Conference Proceeding
Mizrahi, A., Lomakin, V., Slutsky, B., Nezhad, M., Feng, L., & Fainman, Y. (2008). Metal coated subwavelength laser resonators with low threshold gain. . https://doi.org/10.1364/FIO.2008.FTuAA4

We demonstrate that a low refractive index layer in metal coated laser resonators can significantly reduce the threshold gain. A subwavelength resonator with a sufficiently low threshold gain to lase at room temperature is presented.

Wavelength selective coupler with vertical gratings on silicon chip (2008)
Conference Proceeding
Ikeda, K., Nezhad, M., & Fainman, Y. (2008). Wavelength selective coupler with vertical gratings on silicon chip. . https://doi.org/10.1063/1.2936862

We propose a wavelength selective coupler using vertical grating structure on silicon chip and discuss the operation principle and the analytic design procedure. The transmission spectra expected by the procedure agree with finite difference time dom... Read More about Wavelength selective coupler with vertical gratings on silicon chip.

Fabrication approaches for metallo-dielectric plasmonic waveguides (2008)
Conference Proceeding
Nezhad, M., Zamek, S., Pang, L., & Fainman, Y. (2008). Fabrication approaches for metallo-dielectric plasmonic waveguides. In Advanced Fabrication Technologies for Micro/Nano Optics and Photonics. https://doi.org/10.1117/12.768161

Different techniques for fabricating long-range plasmonic metallo-dielectric waveguides are discussed. The approaches depend strongly on the material system in use. Specific results are presented for SU8 and PDMS.
