Reconfigurable Silicon Polarization Rotator in the O-Band Using Sb2Se3 on the Silicon-on-Insulator Platform
We report a reconfigurable polarization rotator (PR) for the O-band on the silicon-on-insulator (SOI) platform. The proposed PR consists of an... -
Generalized Null-Ellipsometry in the Polarizer–Sample–Analyzer Scheme
AbstractThe null ellipsometry technique of generalized ellipsometry based on using a compensator-free polarizer–sample–analyzer scheme for the case...

Fundamentals
In this chapter, we first give a brief historical overview of the discovery of the muon. We introduce its properties and anisotropic decay. We... -
Science Highlights from 4 Years of NIRSPEC on the Keck II Telescope
NIRSPEC is the facility-class near-infrared spectrometer for the W.M. Keck Observatory. Commissioned from April–August 1999, NIRSPEC has been used... -
Theory for Chameleonlike Thermal Rotators: Extremely Anisotropic Conductivity
In this chapter, we propose a mechanism for intelligent thermal regulation based on transformation-invariant metamaterials, which possess highly... -
Dual Imaging Observations of Circumstellar Matter in TW Hydrae: The NACO View
We present VLT/NAOS-CONICA (NACO) dual imaging polarimetric observations of TW Hya, a Classical T Tauri star in the nearby (57 pc) TW Hydrae... -
X-ray Emission of Massive Stars and Their Winds
Most types of massive stars display X-ray emission that is strongly affected by the properties of their stellar winds. Single nonmagnetic OB stars... -
Stellar Magnetic Fields
Stellar magnetic fields are directly detected or inferred across the whole Hertzsprung--Russell Diagram. Attention in this chapter is concentrated on... -
