Journal ArticleDOI
Subwavelength imaging in photonic crystals
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigate the transmission of evanescent waves through a slab of photonic crystal and explore the recently suggested possibility of focusing light with subwavelength resolution, and they find that the periodicity of the photonic lattice imposes an upper cutoff to the transverse wave vector of evanecent waves that can be amplified, and thus a photonic-crystal superlens is free of divergences even in the lossless case.
Journal ArticleDOI
Theory of photoemission
TL;DR: In this paper, the separate ingredients known to be important in photoemission: band structure, surface effects, matrix elements and scattering of the outgoing wave are drawn together within a single "dynamic" formalism with the objective of finding a rapid method of calculation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Plasmonic light-harvesting devices over the whole visible spectrum.
Alexandre Aubry,Dangyuan Lei,Antonio I. Fernández-Domínguez,Yannick Sonnefraud,Stefan A. Maier,John B. Pendry +5 more
TL;DR: A general strategy is proposed to design plasmonic nanostructures capable of an efficient harvesting of light over a broadband spectrum and radiation losses are investigated when the structure dimension becomes comparable to the wavelength.
Journal ArticleDOI
The existence and detection of Rydberg states at surfaces
TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that the surface barrier potential can confine electrons in surface states, which because of the coulombic tail on the potential form a Rydberg series.
Journal ArticleDOI
Limitations on Sub-Diffraction Imaging with a Negative Refractive Index Slab
David R. Smith,David Schurig,Marshall N. Rosenbluth,S. Schultz,S. Anantha Ramakrishna,John B. Pendry +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, the sensitivity of the subwavelength focus to various slab parameters, pointing out the connection to slab plasmon modes, is discussed, and a paradox associated with the perfect imaging of a point source is resolved.
