We present a review, through selected illustrative examples, of the physics of classical
vibrational modes in phononic lattices, which elaborates on the theory, the formalism, the …

We show that the quantum interference between two spontaneous emission channels can
be greatly enhanced when a three-level V-type atom is placed near plasmonic …

The design and engineering of hybrid materials exhibiting tailored phononic band gaps are
fundamentally relevant to innovative material technologies in areas ranging from acoustics …

We consider interaction of a pair of counterpropagating spatially inhomogeneous weak
vortex beams with a quantum emitter that has a double-V level scheme and closely situated …

The current investigation theoretically presents a one-dimensional phononic crystal (PnC)
as a fluidic sensor. The sensor under consideration aims to distinguish the concentration of …

A wavelet-based method is developed to calculate elastic band gaps of two-dimensional
phononic crystals. The wave field is expanded in the wavelet basis and an equivalent …

In this paper a method is proposed for achieving spatially dependent amplification without
inversion (AWI) by exposing a quantum emitter to two weak probe beams carrying orbital …

We demonstrate the existence of large phononic band gaps in designed hyperuniform
(isotropic) disordered two-dimensional (2D) phononic structures of Pb cylinders in an epoxy …

We study theoretically the effects of a plasmonic nanostructure on the linear absorption and
dispersion spectrum of a four-level double-V-type quantum system. In the quantum system …

Time-harmonic plane elastic SH-waves propagating in periodically laminated composites
with functionally graded (FG) interlayers are investigated in this paper. A finite stack of …
