Intensity magnetooptical effect in magnetoplasmonic crystals

Magnetooptical properties of two dimensional photonic crystals

Magnetooptical properties of the materials with periodically modulated dielectric constant – photonic crystals (or band-gap materials) have been examined with relation to their possible applications for the control of electromagnetic radiation in the integrated optics devices. For this investigation we propose the original theoretical approach based on the perturbation theory. Magnetooptical Fa...

Hybrid Magnetoplasmonic Crystals Boost the Performance of Nanohole Arrays as Plasmonic Sensors

We present here a theoretical study that shows how the use of hybrid magnetoplasmonic crystals comprising both ferromagnetic and noble metals leads to a large enhancement of the performance of nanohole arrays as plasmonic sensors. In particular, we propose using Au−Co−Au films perforated with a periodic array of subwavelength holes as transducers in magnetooptical surface-plasmon-resonance sens...

Magnetoplasmonic Interferometers and Applications

Applications of magnetooptical waveguides in integrated optics

Magnetooptical garnets combine high Faraday rotation with low optical losses in the near infrared region where optical communication via glass fiber is established. In this spectral range garnets are the only materials discussed to realize nonreciprocal devices as optical isolators and circulators. Although such devices are available as microoptical components, practical versions of their integ...

Intensity statistics in twinned crystals with examples from the PDB.

Entries deposited in the Protein Data Bank as of February 2004 for which both model and X-ray data were available were analysed to identify cases of twinning using such simple statistics as the R factor between potential twin-related reflections. Careful consideration of all identified twins showed that in many cases twinning was ignored during structure solution and refinement. Manual analysis...
