Summary
This project aims at applying the mass-polariton (MP) theory of light, developed recently by the Experienced Researcher (ER) and coworkers, to experimentally discover the atomic mass density waves (MDWs) generated by light in solids and liquids. We will allso study how this new optical effect can be used to improve existing photonics technologies and to eventually engineer new photonic devices. In particular, the ER will design, simulate, and participate in experiments to probe the influence of the light-driven MDW shock waves and the resulting sound waves (SWs), thermoelastic waves (TEWs), and thermoviscoelastic waves (TVWs) in hollow optical fibers (HOFs) in the Photonic Device Physics Laboratory of Prof. Kyunghwan Oh at the Yonsei University, South Korea, and in graphene membranes (GMs) in the Photonics Group of Prof. Zhipei Sun at the Aalto University, Finland. The ER will also continue to develop the novel optomechanical continuum dynamics (OCD) model, recently introduced by the ER, for multiphysics description of the MDWs propagating in combined liquid-solid structures with the velocity of light and the accompanied sound and thermal waves propagating at the velocity of sound. The proposed research of coupled field-medium dynamics of light in photonic waveguides and graphene nanostructures provides an interesting approach to development of new photonics technologies, a viable way to new optofluidic applications, and also leads to fundamental advances in our understanding of the propagation of light in dielectrics.
