We report on the realization of silicon nitride membranes with enhanced and electrically tunable reflectivity. A subwavelength one-dimensional grating is directly patterned on a suspended 200 nm-thick, high stress commercial film using electron beam lithography. A Fano resonance is observed in the transmission spectrum of TM polarized light impinging on the membrane at normal incidence, leading to an increase in its reflectivity from 10% to 78% at 937 nm. The observed spectrum is compared to the results of rigorous coupled wave analysis simulations based on measurements of the grating transverse profile through localized cuts of the suspended film with a Focused Ion Beam. By mounting the membrane chip on a ring piezoelectric transducer and applying a compressive force to the substrate we subsequently observe a shift of the transmission spectrum by 0.23 nm.

The profile of suspended silicon nitride thin films patterned with one-dimensional subwavelength grating structures is investigated using Atomic Force Microscopy. We first show that the results of the profilometry can be used as input to Rigorous Cou
pled Wave Analysis simulations to predict the transmission spectrum of the gratings under illumination by monochromatic light at normal incidence and compare the results of the simulations with experiments. Secondly, we observe sharp vertical deflections of the films at the boundaries of the patterned area due to local modifications of the tensile stress during the patterning process. These deflections are experimentally observed for various grating structures and investigated on the basis of a simple analytical model as well as finite element method simulations.
Compact and electrically controllable on-chip sources of indistinguishable photons are desirable for the development of integrated quantum technologies. We demonstrate that two quantum dot light emitting diodes (LEDs) in close proximity on a single c
hip can function as a tunable, all-electric quantum light source. Light emitted by an electrically excited driving LED is used to excite quantum dots the neighbouring diode. The wavelength of the quantum dot emission from the neighbouring driven diode is tuned via the quantum confined Stark effect. We also show that we can electrically tune the fine structure splitting.
Few-layer flakes of hexagonal boron nitride were prepared by ultrasonication of bulk crystals and agglomerated to form thin films. The transmission and reflection spectra of the thin films were measured. The spectral dependences of the linear and cir
cular polarization revealed a hidden anisotropy of the films over the whole sample area which could not be explained by the anisotropy of the chaotically-oriented individual particles. Statistical analysis of optical microscopy images showed a macroscopic particle density distribution with ordering corresponding to the optical axis observed in the polarization data.
The observation of the electrically tunable and highly confined plasmons in graphene has stimulated the exploration of interesting properties of plasmons in other two dimensional materials. Recently, hyperbolic plasmon resonance modes are observed in
exfoliated WTe2 films, a type-II Weyl semimetal with layered structure, providing a platform for the assembly of plasmons with hyperbolicity and exotic topological properties. However, the plasmon modes were observed in relatively thick and small-area films, which restrict the tunability and application for plasmons. Here, large-area (~ cm) WTe2 films with different thickness are grown by chemical vapor deposition method, in which plasmon resonance modes are observed in films with different thickness down to about 8 nm. Hybridization of plasmon and surface polar phonons of the substrate is revealed by mapping the plasmon dispersion. The plasmon frequency is demonstrated to be tunable by changing the temperature and film thickness. Our results facilitate the development of a tunable and scalable WTe2 plasmonic system for revealing topological properties and towards various applications in sensing, imaging and light modulation.
We analyze the results of scanning near-field infrared spectroscopy performed on thin films of a-SiO2 on Si substrate. The measured near-field signal exhibits surface-phonon resonances whose strength has a strong thickness dependence in the range fro
m 2 to 300 {nm}. These observations are compared with calculations in which the tip of the near-field infrared spectrometer is modeled either as a point dipole or an elongated spheroid. The latter model accounts for the antenna effect of the tip and gives a better agreement with the experiment. Possible applications of the near-field technique for depth profiling of layered nanostructures are discussed.
