Spatial filtering with photonic crystals

L Maigyte, K Staliunas - Applied physics reviews, 2015 - pubs.aip.org
Photonic crystals are well known for their celebrated photonic band-gaps—the forbidden
frequency ranges, for which the light waves cannot propagate through the structure. The …

Two-dimensional complex parity-time-symmetric photonic structures

M Turduev, M Botey, I Giden, R Herrero, H Kurt… - Physical Review A, 2015 - APS
We propose a simple realistic two-dimensional complex parity-time-symmetric photonic
structure that is described by a non-Hermitian potential but possesses real-valued …

Non-Hermitian arrangement for stable semiconductor laser arrays

JM Pardell, R Herrero, M Botey, K Staliunas - Optics express, 2021 - opg.optica.org

Locally parity-time-symmetric and globally parity-symmetric systems

WW Ahmed, R Herrero, M Botey, K Staliunas - Physical Review A, 2016 - APS
We introduce a class of systems holding parity-time (PT) symmetry locally, whereas being
globally P symmetric. The potential, U= U (| r|), fulfills PT symmetry with respect to …

Investigation of - and -antisymmetry in two dimensional (2D) optical lattices

M Abbas, A Khurshid, I Hussain, Ziauddin - Optics Express, 2020 - opg.optica.org
A collection of cold rubidium atoms in three-level configuration trapped in two dimensional

efficiently stabilized by introducing two-dimensional periodic modulations simultaneously on …

Suppression of modulation instability in broad area semiconductor amplifiers

S Kumar, R Herrero, M Botey, K Staliunas - Optics letters, 2014 - opg.optica.org
We show that a two-dimensional periodic modulation of the pump profile (modulation both
along and perpendicular to the optical axis) can suppress the modulation instability in broad …

Stabilized narrow-beam emission from broad-area semiconductor lasers

J Medina Pardell, R Herrero, M Botey, K Staliunas - Physical Review A, 2020 - APS
We provide a feasible and compact scheme to control and stabilize the spatiotemporal
