AB  - In this work, we have systematically studied the impact of geometric parameters on chiral effects which occur in metamaterial made of Ω elements. The analysis of group delays and electric field enhancements indicate stronger interaction between the structure and right circularly polarized waves. Calculations of optical activity and circular dichroism for different values of geometric parameters, allow us to deduce that the thickness of the wire and the gap size have large influence on these effects. On the other hand, the radius of the wire affects mainly the resonant frequency position which enables frequency tunability. The results indicate that multi-functional design of this chiral metamaterial offers great flexibility for various devices: enantiomeric sensors, circular polarizers and light modulators. © 2019 Elsevier B.V.

AB  - ZnO has been proposed recently as a good base material for high-power terahertz quantum cascade lasers (QCLs) operating at room temperature. We have developed a theoretical model for calculation of the optical gain, based on solving the system of rate equations and taking into account relevant scattering mechanisms. This model has been implemented to perform numerical simulations using ZnO/ZnMgO material combination, starting from the conventional design with three well within the active region of the structure. The influence of the layer widths and composition on the output properties has been considered, together with the variation of the number of quantum wells per QCL period.

AB  - In this work we theoretically investigate a possibility to use cubic nitride based multi-layer periodic nanostructure as a semiconductor metamaterial. The structure design is based on an active region of a quantum cascade laser optimized to achieve optical gain in the Terahertz (THz) spectral range. In particular, we test the GaN/AlGaN quantum well configurations, which should exhibit important advantages compared to GaAs-based structures, namely room temperature operation without the assistance of magnetic field and lower doping densities. Our numerical rate-equations model is solved self-consistently and it takes into account electron-longitudinal optical phonon scattering between all the relevant states among the adjacent periods of the structure. A global optimization routine, specifically genetic algorithm is then used to generate new gain-optimized structures. This work confirms the advantages of cubic GaN designs over GaAs ones, namely feasibility of negative refraction at room temperature without the assistance of magnetic field while keeping the doping densities of the same order of magnitude. © 2018, Springer Science+Business Media, LLC, part of Springer Nature.

AB  - In order to avoid losses in metamaterial unit cells at frequencies of interest, caused by metallic inclusions, an active medium design has been proposed. As candidate structures for this active medium, we have chosen quantum cascade lasers because of their high output gain. Here we analyze and compare two quantum cascade structures that emit at 4.6 THz and 3.9 THz, respectively, placed under the influence of a strong magnetic field. We first solve the full system of rate equations for all relevant Landau levels, and obtain the necessary information about carrier distribution among the levels, after which we are able to evaluate the permittivity component along the growth direction of the structure. With these data one can determine the conditions under which negative refraction occurs, and calculate the values of the refractive index of the structure, as well as the range of frequencies at which the structure exhibits negative refraction for a predefined total electron sheet density.

AB  - Recently, group delay has been proven as a very convenient tool for control of terahertz electromagnetic signals used for filters, waveguides and polarization components. Here, we investigate the propagation of circularly polarised terahertz pulse via analysis of group delays in X particle chiral metamaterial. When varying the geometry of the X particle chiral metamaterial, significant modification of chiroptical effects- optical activity and circular dichroism can be observed. Through the analysis of group delays in the frequency region between 1 and 3 THz we conclude that the right circularly polarised wave is more sensitive to changes in the geometry than the left circularly polarised wave. This result implies that the right circularly polarised wave is responsible for variation of chiroptical effects in these structures and opens up a possibility for potential applications.

AB  - We consider the influence of additional carrier confinement, achieved by application of strong perpendicular magnetic field, on inter Landau levels electron relaxation rates and the optical gain, of two different GaAs quantum cascade laser structures operating in the terahertz spectral range. Breaking of the in-plane energy dispersion and the formation of discrete energy levels is an efficient mechanism for eventual quenching of optical phonon emission and obtaining very long electronic lifetime in the relevant laser state. We employ our detailed model for calculating the electron relaxation rates (due to interface roughness and electron-longitudinal optical phonon scattering), and solve a full set of rate equations to evaluate the carrier distribution over Landau levels. The numerical simulations are performed for three- and four-well (per period) based structures that operate at 3.9 THz and 1.9 THz, respectively, both implemented in GaAs/Al0.15Ga0.85As. Numerical results are presented for magnetic field values from 1.5 T up to 20 T, while the band nonparabolicity is accounted for. (C) 2016 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

AB  - We investigate the propagation of circularly polarized electromagnetic waves through a free-standing Omega particle chiral metamaterial slab and study the associated delay times: dwell time and group delay. Through this analysis, we observe different interactions of right- and left-circularly polarized waves in the terahertz frequency range (1-2.5 THz) with the resonant elements. As a consequence, the resonant-frequency group delay and dwell time of the right-circularly polarized wave are one or more orders of magnitude longer than those of the left. In addition, we compare the delay times obtained from rigorous numerical simulations with those calculated using the retrieved effective parameters. We find that the dwell time cannot be evaluated correctly from the effective medium approximation, while no such problems exist in the case of group delay.

In addition, we compare the delay times obtained from rigorous numerical simulations with those calculated using the retrieved effective parameters. We find that the dwell time cannot be evaluated correctly from the effective medium approximation, while no such problems exist in the case of group delay.",

AB  - One of the challenges in the design of metamaterials unit cells is the reduction of losses caused by the metallic inclusions. In order to overcome this obstacle, it has been proposed to use the active medium as the unit cell. Quantum cascade lasers are great candidates for the active medium materials since they are able to provide high values of optical gain. In this paper we investigate and compare two quantum cascade structures optimized for emission frequencies lower than 2 THz and simulate the effect of a strong magnetic field applied perpendicularly to the layers. Comprehensive description of conduction-band nonparabolicity is used to calculate the electronic structure, and subsequently evaluate the longitudinal optical phonon and interface roughness scattering rates and solve the system of rate equations which govern the distribution of carriers among the Landau levels. Once we assess the degree of population inversion, we have all the necessary information about the permittivity component along the growth direction of the structure and may determine the conditions under which the structure displays negative refraction.

AB  - Quantum Cascade Lasers (QCLs) producing picosecond pulses of high peak power will find numerous novel applications for time-resolved MIR spectroscopy, free space communication, remote atmosphere sensing etc. The short upper state lifetime (~1 ps) in QCLs prohibits passive mode-locking or Q-switched operation because the gain recovers much faster than the pulse repetition rate. Gain switched pulse production has been attempted yielding 120 ps pulse width [1] and active mode-locking was achieved in QCL utilizing diagonal transition [2]. Unfortunately, diagonal transition rendered QCL operation temperature out of the practical use. Experiments reported in [3] evidence that some QCL structures exhibit features of multimode Risken-Nummedal-Graham-Haken (RNGH) instabilities [4,5] at low excess above lasing threshold (pth2<1.1). The onset of such RNGH instabilities and excitation of regular self-pulsations may provide practical means to produce picosecond pulses in the MIR spectral range. Conventional RNGH analysis [4,5] predicts that the second threshold pth2 is in the range of 9 to 16 times above lasing threshold, does not take the spatial grating of population inversion into account and barely agrees with experiments in unidirectional ring fiber lasers [6]. Here we consider Fabry-Perot (FP) cavity QCLs and conventional semiconductor quantum well (QW) LDs. Like in reference [3], we take into account the effect of the induced grating of population inversion, but we also incorporate the grating of the medium polarization and its relaxation due to carrier diffusion. This allows us to explain low second threshold in QCLs without inducing the ambiguous assumption of Ref. [3] of a built-in saturable absorber and Kerr lensing-effect in the waveguide of QCL. We further elucidate the importance of unipolar diffusion in QCLs and ambipolar diffusion in conventional LDs: without diffusion, the second threshold would be too low and independent of the lasing wavelength. Time domain simulations utilizing travelling wave rate equation model of Ref. [7] show irregular self-pulsations, in agreement with experiment in [3]. Shortening of the cavity length down to L=100μm results in the increase of the second threshold up to 2.3-2.5. Above RNGH threshold, steady state regular self-pulsations can be established, preceded by a high-amplitude burst, which might be attributed to Dicke superradiance (SR) [8]. Very high pth2 in conventional LDs is predicted by the model, attributed to ambipolar diffusion. Just like QCLs above the RNGH threshold, FP cavity LDs would exhibit SR emission burst followed by regular RNGH self-pulsations.

A general analytical expression for the effective index of refraction of the Poynting vector is derived for periodic structure composed of two alternating layers of absorptive and dispersive semiconductors and light propagation is simulated by finite-difference-time-domain method. Negative values of the effective refractive index with low absorption are observed in the mid-infrared frequency range. The main advantage of this design is the possibility to control the frequency region with negative effective refractive index by changing the doping densities of the layers.

First, suitable expressions for the tunneling times in a layered periodic material, with anisotropic properties originating from its structure, are derived, followed by numerical calculations performed for a new type of anisotropic semiconductor metamaterial. In the first case, we have considered a layered structure which contains two differently doped In0.53Ga0.47As semiconductor layers. The second structure under investigation is made of alternately placed layers of doped In0.53Ga0.47As and undoped Al0.48Ga0.52As. The investigation of the dwell time as a function of incident wave frequency has revealed the existence of two peaks, one of which may be interpreted as a consequence of anisotropy, while the other one corresponds to the peak related to the absorption and the group delay. Both of these two peaks are affected by variations of layers doping densities. Furthermore, at increased incident angles of incoming EM waves, the dwell time peak occurs at the upper boundary of the frequency interval, for which the structure exhibits negative refractive index.

AB  - Tunneling times in an anisotropic structure composed of alternately placed layers of two linear, dispersive and absorptive materials are analyzed in this paper. For such a structure, a general expression for the relation between the two most common tunneling time definitions, namely the dwell time and the group delay, is obtained. Numerical calculations are performed for a new type of semiconductor metamaterial. The results show a peak position frequency mismatch between the dwell time and the group delay, and between the dwell time and the absorption.

The derived equations show that only the group delay, is affected by the Goos-Hanchen shift without any impact on the dwell time. Besides the reduction of the group delay, the most remarkable result is the possibility for total reduction of the Goos-Hanchen shift for finite incident angles. These phenomena are observable in the frequency region for which metamaterial exhibits negative index of refraction. (C) 2011 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

AB  - We present a detailed analysis of GaAs/AlGaAs terahertz quantum cascade laser in the presence of an intense external magnetic field. One of the objectives in further development of THz quantum cascade laser is the realization of structures operating at higher temperatures. This is difficult to obtain as the operating photon emission energy is smaller than the longitudinal-optical phonon energy in the semiconductor material. With increased temperature, electrons in the upper radiative state gain sufficient in-plane energy to emit an longitudinal-optical phonon, which represents a non-radiative scattering and reduces the optical gain. By applying strong magnetic field, two-dimensional continuous energy subbands become split into series of discrete Landau levels, and at particular values of B it is possible to quench these non-radiative channels. Numerical simulations are performed on two-well design quantum cascade laser operating at 4.6 THz, implemented in CaAs/Al(0.15)Ga(0.85)As, and the magnetic field is perpendicular to the epitaxial layers. Strong oscillations of carrier lifetimes for the upper state of the laser transition, as a function of magnetic field are observed, which can be attributed to interface roughness scattering and longitudinal-optical phonon scattering between Landau levels.

AB  - Investigating the propagation of electromagnetic radiation in linear and nonlinear materials (with third-order nonlinearity), we derived a general expression for the dwell time valid for all linear media, as well as its relation with the group delay. The obtained results indicate that, for a nonmagnetic lossless material, the group delay reduces to the sum of the dwell time and the self-interference time. Calculations confirmed the occurrence of the Hartman effect in negative-refractive-index metamaterials (the dwell time saturates with increasing obstacle length), as well as the negative group delay in a certain spectral regime. Analysis of the Goos-Hanchen shift, in case of an obstacle made of negative-refractive-index metamaterial embedded in a dielectric with saturable nonlinearity, showed that there is no impact on the dwell time, while various effects on the group delay may be achieved, including its reduction or even preservation for nonzero incident angles.

Upon completing this initial optimization stage, we introduce a strong external magnetic field perpendicular to the epitaxial layers, to fine tune the laser output properties. This magnetic field alters the electron energy spectrum by splitting the continuous energy subbands into discrete Landau levels whose arrangement influences the magnitude of the optical gain. In addition, strong effects of band nonparabolicity result in subtle changes in the lasing wavelength at magnetic fields which maximize the gain, thus allowing us to explore the prospects of multi-wavelength emission of the given structure, and achieving resonance with additional compounds, absorbing at wavelengths close to the original one. Numerical results are presented for GaAs/Al(x)Ga(1-x) As based QCL structures designed for operation in the mid-infrared part of the spectrum.

The method aims at obtaining a gain-maximized structure, designed to emit radiation at specified wavelengths suitable for direct absorption by pollutant gasses present in the ambient air. After the initial optimization stage, we introduce a strong external magnetic field to tune the laser output properties and to slightly modify the emission wavelength to match the absorption lines of additional compounds. The magnetic field is applied perpendicularly to the epitaxial layers, thus causing two dimensional continuous energy subbands to split into series of discrete Landau levels. This affects all the relevant relaxation processes in the structure and consequently the lifetime of carriers in the upper laser level. Furthermore, strong effects of band nonparabolicity result in subtle changes of the lasing wavelength at magnetic fields which maximize the gain, thus providing a path for fine tuning of the output radiation properties. Numerical results are presented for GaAs/Al(x)Ga(1-x)As based quantum cascade laser structures designed to emit at particular wavelengths in the mid infrared part of the spectrum.

This affects all the relevant relaxation processes in the structure and consequently the lifetime of carriers in the upper laser level. Furthermore, strong effects of band nonparabolicity result in subtle changes of the lasing wavelength at magnetic fields which maximize the gain, thus providing a path for fine tuning of the output radiation properties. Numerical results are presented for GaAs/Al(x)Ga(1-x)As based quantum cascade laser structures designed to emit at particular wavelengths in the mid infrared part of the spectrum.",

AB  - Tunneling times of electromagnetic planar wave propagating through a barrier made of split-ring resonators and long metallic wires embedded into a dielectric with saturable nonlinearity are analyzed. For such structure, analytical expressions for the tunneling times and relation between the group delay and the dwell time are obtained. The electric-field distribution inside the barrier is numerically evaluated and a detailed study of the influence of nonlinearity on the spectral structures of the tunneling times is performed. It is demonstrated that intensity variation in the incident field may change the wave propagation direction, the sign of the barriers refractive index, and group delay.

AB  - Time delays for an intense transverse electric wave propagating through a slab with saturable nonlinearity are investigated. The nonlinearity is assumed in a form of the Vinetskii-Kukhtarev model, which is relevant for the slabs made of nonlinear photorefractive crystals, such as GaAs and LiNbO(3), which feature a saturable nonlinearity. The expressions for the group delay and the dwell time are derived and the relation between them is studied. It is shown that the difference between them has three different contributions. The first one corresponds to the self-interference associated with the dispersion of the medium surrounding the slab. The other two appear due to the nonlinearity of the slab and oblique incidence of the transverse electric wave. All the results are compared with the case of dielectric slabs with cubic (Kerr) nonlinearity.

AB  - In this paper, a more general expression that describes the relationship between dwell time and group delay is derived. This expression is valid for all kinds of materials, including negative-index metamaterials (NIMs). An obstacle made of double-negative NIMs (DN-NIMs) and surrounded by a double-positive waveguide was used as a model. In the cases where the obstacle was made of left-handed materials and the surroundings were air, it has been shown that the dwell time and absorption have similar dependences on the incident wave frequency. On the other hand, group delay becomes negative in some cases. Numerical results show that an increase in the length of the obstacle leads to saturation of the dwell time and absorption, which is in accordance with the phenomenon known as the Hartman effect. Similar results were obtained for terahertz range of frequencies and for the dispersive waveguide. In this case, it is shown that there is a certain range of frequencies where group velocity is positive, whereas the phase velocity remains negative, i.e. the peak of the output pulse appears before the peak of the input pulse. Finally, the use of a model that considers an obstacle made of a lossless, non-magnetic metamaterial, with background permittivity equal to 1 and a dispersive waveguide, leads to the appearance of a new delay, called self-interference time.
