When an oscillating line source is placed in front of a special mirror consisting of an array of flat uniformly spaced ferrite rods, half of the image disappeared at some frequency. We believe that this comes from the coupling to photonic states of the magnetic surface plasmon band. These states exhibit giant circulations that only go in one direction due to time reversal symmetry breaking. Possible applications of this rectifying reflection include a robust one-way waveguide, a 90 degree beam bender and a beam splitter, which are shown to work even in the deep subwavelength scale.

We report direct evidence of enhanced spontaneous emission in a photonic crystal (PhC) light-emitting diode. The device consists of p-i-n heterojunction embedded in a suspended membrane, comprising a layer of self-assembled quantum dots. Current is i njected laterally from the periphery to the center of the PhC. A well-isolated emission peak at 1300nm from the PhC cavity mode is observed, and the enhancement of the spontaneous emission rate is clearly evidenced by time-resolved electroluminescence measurements, showing that our diode switches off in a time shorter than the bulk radiative and nonradiative lifetimes
Based on a microscopic many-particle theory we study the amplification of polaritons in a multiple-quantum-well resonant photonic crystal. For the Bragg-spaced multiple quantum wells under investigation we predict that in a typical pump-probe setup f our-wave mixing processes can lead to an unstable energy transfer from the pump into the probe and the background-free four-wave mixing directions. We find that under certain excitation conditions this phase-conjugate oscillation induced instability can lead to a large amplification of the weak probe pulse.
Coherent acoustic radial oscillations of thin spherical gold shells of submicron diameter excited by an ultrashort optical pulse are observed in the form of pronounced modulations of the transient reflectivity on a subnanosecond time scale. Strong ac ousto-optical coupling in a photonic crystal enhances the modulation of the transient reflectivity up to 4%. The frequency of these oscillations is demonstrated to be in good agreement with Lamb theory of free gold shells.
The reflectivity of a highly localized magnetic inhomogeneity is experimentally studied. The inhomogeneity is created by a dc-current carrying wire placed on the surface of a ferrite film. The reflection of propagating dipole-dominated spin-wave puls es is found to be strongly dependent on the spin-wave frequency if the current locally increases the magnetic field. In the opposite case the frequency dependence is negligible.
Using the unitarity and reciprocity properties of the scattering matrix, we analyse the symmetry and resonant optical properties of the photonic crystal slabs (PCS) with complicated unit cell. We show that the reflectivity is not changed upon the 180 deg-rotation of the sample around the normal axis, even in PCS with asymmetrical unit cell. Whereas the transmissivity becomes asymmetrical if the diffraction or absorption are present. The PCS reflectivity peaks to unity near the quasiguided mode resonance for normal light incidence in the absence of diffraction, depolarisation, and absorptive losses. For the oblique incidence the full reflectivity is reached only in symmetrical PCS.
