Glasses based on SiO2-PbO-CdO-Ga2O3 system have been studied for the first time for fabrication of mid-infrared optical elements. Gallium oxide concentration was gradually increased, replacing silicon dioxide, for different cadmium and lead oxide content. The thermal and optical properties were investigated for different compositions. It was observed that the thermal stability, refractive index, and the transmission in the infrared range increased with increase of gallium and lead concentrations. The most thermally stable glass composition was selected for fabrication of optical elements such as optical fibers. We also successfully fabricated mid-infrared lenses by hot embossing for potential application in compact gas detectors
We present high-reflectivity substrate-transferred single-crystal GaAs/AlGaAs interference coatings at a center wavelength of 4.54 um with record-low excess optical loss below 10 parts per million. These high-performance mirrors are realized via a no
In this paper, we report the design and fabrication of a highly birefringent polarization-maintaining photonic crystal fiber (PM-PCF) made from chalcogenide glass, and its application to linearly-polarized supercontinuum (SC) generation in the mid-in
We present measurements of the Faraday effect in n-type InSb. The Verdet coefficient was determined for a range of carrier concentrations near $10^{17}$ $text{cm}^{-3}$ in the $lambda$ = 8 $mu$m - 12 $mu$m long-wave infrared regime. The absorption co
Metasurfaces offer the potential to control light propagation at the nanoscale for applications in both free-space and surface-confined geometries. Existing metasurfaces frequently utilize metallic polaritonic elements with high absorption losses, an
Recently, in-plane biaxial hyperbolicity has been observed in $alpha$-MoO${_3}$ --a van der Waal crystal-- in the mid-infrared frequency regime. Here, we present a comprehensive theoretical analysis of thin film $alpha$-MoO${_3}$ for application to t
