Journal ArticleDOI
Optical properties of metallic films for vertical-cavity optoelectronic devices.
TL;DR: The reflectance and the phase change on reflection from semiconductor-metal interfaces (including the case of metallic multilayers) can be accurately described by use of the proposed models for the optical functions of metallic films and the matrix method for multilayer calculations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Algorithm for the determination of intrinsic optical constants of metal films: application to aluminum
TL;DR: Optical and electron-energy-loss data for evaporated-aluminum films have been critically analyzed and used in an iterative, self-consistent algorithm that represents a combination of the Kramers-Kronig analysis and the semiquantum-model application.
Journal ArticleDOI
Laser feedback interferometry: a tutorial on the self-mixing effect for coherent sensing
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a guided tour of laser feedback interferometry, from its origin and early development through its implementation to a slew of sensing applications, including displacement, distance, velocity, flow, refractive index, and laser linewidth measurement.
Journal ArticleDOI
Terahertz imaging through self-mixing in a quantum cascade laser
Paul Dean,Yah Leng Lim,Alexander Valavanis,Russell Kliese,Milan Nikolić,Suraj P. Khanna,M. Lachab,Dragan Indjin,Zoran Ikonic,Paul Harrison,Aleksandar D. Rakić,Edmund H. Linfield,A. Giles Davies +12 more
TL;DR: Self-mixing imaging offers high sensitivity, a potentially fast response, and a simple, compact optical design, and it is shown that it can be used to obtain high-resolution reflection images of exemplar structures.
Journal ArticleDOI
Terahertz imaging using quantum cascade lasers—a review of systems and applications
Paul Dean,Alexander Valavanis,James Keeley,Karl Bertling,Yah Leng Lim,R. Alhathlool,Andrew D. Burnett,Lianhe Li,Suraj P. Khanna,Dragan Indjin,Thomas Taimre,Aleksandar D. Rakić,Edmund H. Linfield,Alexander Giles Davies +13 more
TL;DR: The terahertz (THz) frequency quantum cascade laser (QCL) is a compact source of THz radiation offering high power, high spectral purity and moderate tunability as discussed by the authors.
