Development of Plasmon-Assisted Quantum Dot Sensors for Multispectral and Polarization Selective Imaging

Abstract

We have 1) experimentally demonstrated a plasmon-assisted multispectral and polarization selective imaging device and 2) developed a complex refractive index estimation algorithm based on a polarized microfacet bidirectional reflectance distribution function (pBRDF)model, and 3) developed a metasurface surface that can extract the Stokes parameters directly from a focal plane array for advanced imaging applications. From this project, we published 7 peer-reviewed journal papers and 6 conference papers in internal conferences. Currently, 2 journal papers are under review. Two PhDs and two students with their MS degree have been produced by this grant. Currently, one student who was supported by this grant is pursuing his PhD at New Mexico State University.
