Our paper on “Suspended, Polarization-Dependent, Subwavelength-Perforated Metal Absorber for Mid-Infrared Bolometry” is published in Nano Letters. A collaboration with the Povinelli group at USC, led by Silvia Guadagnini and UT Mid-IR Research Associate Zarko Sakotic, we show strong, polarization-dependent absorption in perforated ultra-thin membranes. This work was funded by the… read more

Resonant Pixel manuscript published in Optics Express
Our work, Lateral cavity-enhanced guided mode resonance structures for mid-wave infrared photodetector pixels, describing a resonant pixel architecture for enhanced absorption in finite-sized guided mode resonance mid-wave infrared detector pixels is published in OpEx. This work was a collaboration with the Podolskiy Group at UMass Lowell, and was led by… read more
Our Decoupled Emission/Absorption Bolometer work published in Optics Letters
Congratulations to first author Alexander Ware and co-authors Morgan Bergthold, Noah Mansfield, and Zarko Sakotic, as well as collaborators at Sandia National Labs, on the publication of our paper: “Decoupling absorption and radiative cooling in mid-wave infrared bolometric elements“. By designing a mid-wave IR metal-insulator-metal resonator with an integrated long-wave… read more
