Field localization boosts nonlinear optical processes at the hot spots of metal nanostructures. Fano resonances can further enhance these "local"processes taking place at the hot spots. However, in conventional nonlinear materials, the frequency conversion takes place along the entire crystal body. That is, the conversion process is "unlocalized."The path interference (Fano resonance) schemes developed for localized processes become useless in such materials. Here, we develop Fano enhancement schemes for unlocalized nonlinear optical processes. We show that three-orders-of-magnitude Fano enhancement multiplies the enhancements achieved via field-trapping techniques, e.g., in epsilon-near-zero materials. We demonstrate the phenomenon both analytically and using numerical solutions of Maxwell's equations. The agreement between the two solutions is impressive. We observe that the interference scheme for unlocalized processes is richer than that for the local processes. The method can be employed for any kind of nonlinear optical conversion. Moreover, Fano enhancement can be continuously controlled by an applied voltage.

Fano Resonances in the Linear and Nonlinear Plasmonic Response Taşgın, Mehmet Emre; Bek, Alpan; Postacı, Selen (Springer, 2018-01-01) Fano resonances manifest novel phenomena both in linear and nonlinear response of plasmonic nanomaterials. They can extend the lifetime of plasmonic excitations, enabling the operation of nanolasers, or they can increase the fluorescence of quantum emitters. They also provide control over nonlinear optical processes such as second harmonic generation and surface enhanced Raman scattering. Fano resonances can both enhance and suppress nonlinear response. Interference of two or more absorption/conversion path...
Investigation of tightly coupled arrays for wideband applications Arda, Kaan; Dural Ünver, Mevlüde Gülbin; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2020-10) This thesis aims to provide in depth research on tightly coupled dipole arrays to be used in ultrawideband apertures applications. First, operation principles of tightly coupled dipole arrays are investigated. Starting from the Wheeler’s current sheet aperture concept, some calculations on bandwidth and impedance concepts are conducted. B.A. Munk’s addition to the concept, use of capacitive elements between adjacent dipoles, are introduced. Array unit cell is modeled using equivalent circuit approach,...
Optimum design of unbraced steel frames to LRFD-AISC using particle swarm optimization Dogan, E.; Saka, M. P. (2012-04-01) Particle Swarm method based optimum design algorithm for unbraced steel frames is presented. The Particle Swarm method is a numerical optimization technique that simulates the social behavior of birds, fishes and bugs. In nature fish school, birds flock and bugs swarm not only for reproduction but for other reasons such as finding food and escaping predators. Similar to birds seek to find food, the optimum design process seeks to find the optimum solution. In the particle swarm optimization each particle in...
Radiation pressure excitation of a low temperature atomic force/magnetic force microscope for imaging in 4-300 K temperature range Celik, Umit L; KARCI, Ozgur; UYSALLI, Yigit; Özer, Hakkı Tunçay; Oral, Ahmet (2017-01-01) We describe a novel radiation pressure based cantilever excitation method for imaging in dynamic mode atomic force microscopy (AFM) for the first time. Piezo-excitation is the most common method for cantilever excitation, however it may cause spurious resonance peaks. Therefore, the direct excitation of the cantilever plays a crucial role in AFM imaging. A fiber optic interferometer with a 1310 nm laser was used both for the excitation of the cantilever at the resonance and the deflection measurement of the...
DFT-based ab-initio study of half-Heusler KCaP compound MOĞULKOÇ, YEŞİM; ÇİFTCİ, YASEMİN; SÜRÜCÜ, GÖKHAN (2018-01-01) An ab-initio study of structural, elastic, electronic and optical properties of KCaP compound with space group F (4) over bar 3m have been reported using the plane-wave pseudo-potential technique based on density functional theory under pressure effect. The elastic anisotropy of compound is investigated in terms of Poisson's ratio, shear modulus and Young's modulus with pressure effect. The electronic band structure calculations and charge densities are obtained. Optical properties are also investigated and...
