Journal ArticleDOI
Bound states in the continuum
TL;DR: Bound states in the continuum (BICs) are waves that remain localized even though they coexist with a continuous spectrum of radiating waves that can carry energy away.
Journal ArticleDOI
Universal conductance fluctuations in metals.
Patrick A. Lee,A. Douglas Stone +1 more
TL;DR: The theory is shown to be in excellent agreement with numerical simulations and explains many features of experiments on small wires and rings.
Journal ArticleDOI
PT-symmetry breaking and laser-absorber modes in optical scattering systems.
TL;DR: Using a scattering matrix formalism, the general scattering properties of optical structures that are symmetric under a combination of parity and time reversal (PT) are derived and a transition between PT-symmetric scattering eigenstates, which are norm preserving, and symmetry-broken pairs of eigenstate exhibiting net amplification and loss is demonstrated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Time-reversed lasing and interferometric control of absorption.
TL;DR: The device, termed a “coherent perfect absorber,” functions as an absorptive interferometer, with potential practical applications in integrated optics, and it is demonstrated that absorption can be reduced substantially by varying the relative phase of the incident fields.
Journal ArticleDOI
High-Power Directional Emission from Microlasers with Chaotic Resonators
Claire F. Gmachl,Federico Capasso,Evgenii E. Narimanov,Jens U. Nöckel,A. Douglas Stone,Jérôme Faist,Deborah L. Sivco,Alfred Y. Cho +7 more
TL;DR: A "bow-tie"-shaped resonance is responsible for the improved performance of the lasers in the higher range of deformations, in contrast to "whispering-gallery"-type modes of circular and weakly deformed lasers.
