Advanced Nanophotonics Approach to Random Lasing and Nonlinear Optics in Plasmonic Dicroic Nanocomposite

Abstract

This proposal focuses on a new direction to produce and characterize highly efficient nanocomposite metallic/dielectric materials, which will be the basis for advanced nanophotonics concepts incorporated in a metamaterial: (i) novel random lasing utilizing enhanced feedbacks from plasmonically coupled nanosize scatterers; (ii) Spasers for local nanolasing utilizing coupling between a plasmonic band and the quatum states of a gain medium; (iii) distributed feedback from the band gap in a hollow core photonic crystal fiber and (iv) nonlinear optics and stimulated Mie scattering in plasmonically coupled nanosize scatterers. This project extends the research activities of recently supported AFOSR project to the same group, with published results
