  • Light control by Non-Hermitian modulation in multimode fiber 

    Akhter, Mohammad Nayeem; Benadouda Ivars, Salim; Herrero Simon, Ramon; Botey Cumella, Muriel; Staliunas, Kestutis (META Conference, 2022)
    Conference report
    Open Access
    We show that a non-Hermitian modulation of the potential along the nonlinear multimode fibers controls dynamics of propagating radiation. Specifically we consider simultaneous modulation of the refraction index and gain/loss ...
  • Second and third harmonic generation from gold nanolayers: experiment versus theory

    Conference report
    Open Access
    The use of semiconductors, metals, or ordinary dielectrics in the process of fabrication of nanodevices is at the front edge of nowadays technology, exploiting the properties of light propagation and localization at ...
  • Análisis de escala simple de veinticinco años de registros de la red pluviométrica de Barcelona 

    Navarro Bosque, Javier; Kirchner Amor, Ricard; Rodríguez Solá, Raúl; Casas Castillo, M. del Carmen (Real Sociedad Española de Física (RSEF), 2022)
    Conference lecture
    Open Access
    El área metropolitana de Barcelona, de aproximadamente 100 Km2 de extensión, dispone de una red densa de pluviómetros de balancín que se empezó a instalar en 1983, y ha ido siendo gestionada desde entonces por diferentes ...
  • Turbulence control by non-Hermitian potentials 

    Benadouda Ivars, Salim; Botey Cumella, Muriel; Herrero Simon, Ramon; Staliunas, Kestutis (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2021)
    Conference report
    Open Access
    We propose a method to control turbulence by the introduction a non-Hermitian spatiotemporal modulation, based on the energy redirection from unstable to stable modes by the unidirectional coupling induced by these potentials ...
  • Spatiotemporal stabilization of PT-symmetric BAS lasers 

    Medina Pardell, Judith; Herrero Simon, Ramon; Botey Cumella, Muriel; Staliunas, Kestutis (International Society for Photo-Optical Instrumentation Engineers (SPIE), 2020)
    Conference report
    Restricted access - publisher's policy
    We propose a compact solution to spatially regularize and temporally stabilize edge emitting (broad area) semiconductor lasers. The scheme relays on the local asymmetries generated by a non-Hermitian potential with a central ...
  • Second harmonic generation from an ITO nanolayer: experiment versus theory 

    Rodríguez Suñé, Laura; Scalora, Michael; Johnson, Allan; Cojocaru, Crina; Akozbek, Neset; Coppens, Zachary; Pérez Salinas, Daniel; Wall, Simon; Trull Silvestre, José Francisco (International Society for Photo-Optical Instrumentation Engineers (SPIE), 2020)
    Conference report
    Open Access
    We report a comparative experimental and theoretical study of second harmonic generation from a 20nm-thick indium tin oxide nanolayer in the proximity of the epsilon-near-zero condition. We record the efficiency of the ...
  • Stabilized Bright Narrow Beams from Edge-Emitting Lasers 

    Medina Pardell, Judith; Herrero Simon, Ramon; Botey Cumella, Muriel; Staliunas, Kestutis (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2020)
    Conference report
    Restricted access - publisher's policy
    We present new edge-emitting laser configurations to improve the laser performance with a double benefit, light localization into a bright narrow beam emission and the suppression of spatiotemporal dynamics. The proposal ...
  • Experimental and Theoretical Study of Second Harmonic Generation from an ITO Nanolayer 

    Rodríguez Suñé, Laura; Scalora, Michael; Johnson, Allan; Cojocaru, Crina; Akozbek, Neset; Coppens, Zachary; Pérez Salinas, Daniel; Wall, Simon; Trull Silvestre, José Francisco (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2020)
    Conference report
    Restricted access - publisher's policy
    We present an experimental study of second harmonic generation from a 20nm-thick indium tin oxide layer in the proximity of its epsilon-near-zero condition. We report measurements of second harmonic efficiencies as a ...
  • Enamel deterioration: the thermal properties of the modernist enamels and stain glasses from the city of Barcelona 

    Beltran González, Martí; Bonet, Jordi; Pradell Cara, Trinitat (2017)
    Conference report

  • Spatial filtering in broad area semiconductor laser using photonic crystal 

    Gawali, Sandeep Babu; Gailevicius, Darius; Purlys, Vytautas; Trull Silvestre, José Francisco; Cojocaru, Crina; Staliunas, Kestutis (2020)
    Conference lecture
    Restricted access - publisher's policy
    In high power regimes, broad area semiconductor lasers usually suffer from poor beam quality due to their asymmetric beam divergence, large beam quality factor (M2) and from the absence of any intrinsic filtering mechanism ...
  • Wakes and instabilities of static and freely vibrating cylinders 

    Rodríguez Pérez, Ivette María; Lehmkuhl Barba, Oriol; Pastrana Maldonado, Daniel; Cajas García, Juan Carlos; Houzeaux, Guillaume (Springer, 2019)
    Conference report
    Open Access
    The flow around static and freely vibrating cylinders are of interest in understanding different phenomena encountered in many practical applications.
  • Characteristics and dynamics of crescentic bar events at Castelldefels beach 

    Swart, Rinse Leendert de; Ribas Prats, Francesca; Simarro, Gonzalo; Guillén Aranda, Jorge (Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Científicas (CSIC), 2019)
    Conference report
    Open Access
    Crescentic sand bars have been studied intensively in the last decades, resulting in good knowledge of some of their characteristics, but the processes behind their formation and destruction are not yet clear. This study ...
