We investigate the use of a Genetic Algorithm (GA) to design a set of photonic crystals (PCs) in one and two dimensions. Our flexible design methodology allows us to optimize PC structures which are optimized for specific objectives. In this paper, we report the results of several such GA-based PC optimizations. We show that the GA performs well even in very complex design spaces, and therefore has great potential for use as a robust design tool in present and future applications.

We show that two-photon absorption (TPA) in Rubidium atoms can be greatly enhanced by the use of a hollow-core photonic bandgap fiber. We investigate off-resonant, degenerate Doppler-free TPA on the 5S1/2 - 5D5/2 transition and observe 1% absorption of a pump beam with a total power of only 1 mW in the fiber. These results are verified by measuring the amount of emitted blue fluorescence and are consistent with the theoretical predictions which indicate that transit time effects play an important role in determining the two-photon absorption cross-section in a confined geometry.
We report on the design, fabrication, and testing of ferroelectric patterned materials in the guided-wave and polaritonic regime. We demonstrate their functionality and exploit polariton confinement for amplification and coherent control using temporal pulse shaping.
Over the past decade, artificially engineered optical materials and nanostructured thin films have revolutionized the area of photonics by employing novel concepts of metamaterials and metasurfaces where spatially varying structures yield tailorable, by design effective electromagnetic properties. The current state-of-the-art approach to designing and optimizing such structures relies heavily on simplistic, intuitive shapes for their unit cells or meta-atoms. Such approach can not provide the global solution to a complex optimization problem where both meta-atoms shape, in-plane geometry, out-of-plane architecture, and constituent materials have to be properly chosen to yield the maximum performance. In this work, we present a novel machine-learning-assisted global optimization framework for photonic meta-devices design. We demonstrate that using an adversarial autoencoder coupled with a metaheuristic optimization framework significantly enhances the optimization search efficiency of the meta-devices configurations with complex topologies. We showcase the concept of physics-driven compressed design space engineering that introduces advanced regularization into the compressed space of adversarial autoencoder based on the optical responses of the devices. Beyond the significant advancement of the global optimization schemes, our approach can assist in gaining comprehensive design intuition by revealing the underlying physics of the optical performance of meta-devices with complex topologies and material compositions.
A Bragg waveguide-based resonant fluidic sensor operating in THz band is studied. A fused deposition modeling 3D printing technique is employed to fabricate the sensor where the liquid analyte is flowing in the microfluidic channel integrated into th e waveguide cladding. The analyte refractive index-dependent resonant defect state supported by the fluidic channel is probed by tracking the resulting absorption dip and phase change of the core-guided mode on waveguide transmission spectra. The proposed fluidic sensor can open new opportunities in applied chemical and biological sensing as it offers a non-contact measurement technique for monitoring refractive index changes in flowing liquids.
We outline a recently developed theory of impedance-matching, or reflectionless excitation of arbitrary finite photonic structures in any dimension. It describes the necessary and sufficient conditions for perfectly reflectionless excitation to be po ssible, and specifies how many physical parameters must be tuned to achieve this. In the absence of geometric symmetries the tuning of at least one structural parameter will be necessary to achieve reflectionless excitation. The theory employs a recently identified set of complex-frequency solutions of the Maxwell equations as a starting point, which are defined by having zero reflection into a chosen set of input channels, and which are referred to as R-zeros. Tuning is generically necessary in order to move an R-zero to the real-frequency axis, where it becomes a physical steady-state solution, referred to as a Reflectionless Scattering Mode (RSM). Except in single-channel systems, the RSM corresponds to a particular input wavefront, and any other wavefront will generally not be reflectionless. In a structure with parity and time-reversal symmmetry or with parity-time symmetry, generically a subset of R-zeros is real, and reflectionless states exist without structural tuning. Such systems can exhibit symmetry-breaking transitions when two RSMs meet, which corresponds to a recently identified kind of exceptional point at which the shape of the reflection and transmission resonance lineshape is flattened.
