U.S.-Germany Cooperative Research: Spatio-Temporal Pattern Formation in Quadratic Parametric Nonlinear Optical Caviti

9815361 Torruellas该奖项支持PI William Torruellas和来自华盛顿州立大学的两名博士后学生与德国耶拿大学固态理论和理论光学研究所的Falk Lederer以及法国利莫日大学光学和微波通信研究所的Alain Barthelemy合作。 本论文的研究重点是制备微腔聚合物薄膜，以实现非线性光学图案和孤波的实验演示。 这种独特的多边合作汇集了美国集团在聚合物基器件方面的专业知识、法国实验室在空间孤子生成方面的开创性工作以及德国集团的理论专业知识。 合作包括来自所有三所大学的学生的广泛参与，预计合作将扩大到包括所有三个机构内的其他部门。

9815361TorruellasThis award supports the PI, William Torruellas, and two postdoctoral students from Washington State University in a collaboration with Falk Lederer of the Institute for Solid State Theory and Theoretical Optics at the University of Jena, Germany, and with Alain Barthelemy of the Institute for Optical and Microwave Communications at the University of Limoges, France. The research focus is on fabrication of micro-cavity polymer thin films that will make possible the experimental demonstration of nonlinear optical patterns and solitary waves. This unique multilateral collaboration brings together the expertise of the U.S. group in polymer-based devices, the pioneering work of the French lab in spatial soliton generation, and the theoretical expertise of the German group. The collaboration includes extensive participation by students from all three universities, and it is expected that the collaboration will expand to include other departments within all three instituions.
