    Abstract: From time- and spatially resolved optical measurements, we show that extended defects can have a large effect on the charge-carrier recombination in II–VI semiconductors. In CdTe double heterostructures grown by molecular beam epitaxy on the InSb (100)-orientation substrates, we characterized the extended defects and found that near stacking faults the space-charge field extends by 2–5 μm. Charge carriers drift (with the space-charge field strength of 730–1,360 V cm−1) and diffuse (with the mobility of 260 ± 30 cm2 V−1 s−1) toward the extended defects, where the minority-carrier lifetime is reduced from 560 ns to 0.25 ns. Therefore, the extended defects are nonradiative recombination sinks that affect areas significantly larger than the typical crystalline grains in II–VI solar cells. From the correlative time-resolved photoluminescence and second-harmonic generation microscopy data, we developed a band-diagram model that can be used to analyze the impact of extended defects on solar cells and other electronic devices.

    Abstract: The group delay incurred by an optical wave packet depends on its path length. Therefore, when a wave packet is obliquely incident on a planar homogeneous slab, the group delay upon traversing it inevitably increases with the angle of incidence. Here, we confirm the existence of isochronous “space–time” (ST) wave packets: pulsed beams whose spatiotemporal structure enables them to traverse the layer with a fixed group delay over a wide span of incident angles. This unique behavior stems from the dependence of the group velocity of a refracted ST wave packet on its angle of incidence. Isochronous ST wave packets are observed in slabs of optical materials with indices ranging from 1.38 to 2.5 for angles up to 50° away from normal incidence.

    Abstract: The refraction of space-time (ST) wave packets at planar interfaces between non-dispersive, homogeneous, isotropic dielectrics exhibits fascinating phenomena, even at normal incidence. Examples of such refractive phenomena include group-velocity invariance across the interface, anomalous refraction, and group-velocity inversion. Crucial differences emerge at oblique incidence with respect to the results established at normal incidence. For example, the group velocity of the refracted ST wave packet can be tuned simply by changing the angle of incidence. In the third paper, we present experimental verification of the refractive phenomena exhibited by ST wave packets at oblique incidence that were in the first paper of this sequence [ J. Opt. Soc. Am. A 38 , 1409 ( 2021 ) 10.1364/JOSAA.430105 ]. We also examine a proposal for “blind synchronization,” whereby identical ST wave packets arrive simultaneously at different receivers without a priori knowledge of their locations except that they are all located at the same depth beyond an interface between two media. A first proof-of-principle experimental demonstration of this effect is provided.

    Abstract: Superresolved far-field microscopy has emerged as a powerful tool for investigating the structure of objects with resolution well below the diffraction limit of light. Nearly all superresolution imaging techniques reported to date rely on real energy states of fluorescent molecules to circumvent the diffraction limit, preventing superresolved imaging with contrast mechanisms that occur via virtual energy states, including harmonic generation (HG). We report a superresolution technique based on spatial frequency-modulated imaging (SPIFI) that permits superresolved nonlinear microscopy with any contrast mechanism and with single-pixel detection. We show multimodal superresolved images with two-photon excited fluorescence (TPEF) and second-harmonic generation (SHG) from biological and inorganic media. Multiphoton SPIFI (MP-SPIFI) provides spatial resolution up to 2η below the diffraction limit, where η is the highest power of the nonlinear intensity response. MP-SPIFI can be used to provide enhanced resolution in optically thin media and may provide a solution for superresolved imaging deep in scattering media.

    Abstract: The refraction of space-time (ST) wave packets offers many fascinating surprises with respect to conventional pulsed beams. In the first paper in this sequence [ J. Opt. Soc. Am. A 38 , 1409 ( 2021 ) 10.1364/JOSAA.430105 ], we theoretically described the refraction of all families of ST wave packets at normal and oblique incidence at a planar interface between two nondispersive, homogeneous, isotropic dielectrics. Here, in this second paper in the sequence, we present experimental verification of the refractive phenomena predicted for baseband ST wave packets upon normal incidence on a planar interface. Specifically, we observe group velocity invariance, normal and anomalous refraction, and group velocity inversion leading to group delay cancellation. These phenomena are verified in a set of optical materials with refractive indices ranging from 1.38 to 1.76, including M g F 2 , fused silica, BK7 glass, and sapphire. We also provide a geometrical representation of the physics associated with anomalous refraction in terms of the dynamics of the spectral support domain for ST wave packets on the surface of the light cone.

    Abstract: We use two-dimensional numerical simulations to analyze high spatial resolution time-resolved spectroscopy data. This analysis is applied to two-photon excitation time-resolved photoluminescence (2PE-TRPL) but is broadly applicable to all microscopic time-resolved techniques. By solving time-dependent drift-diffusion equations, we gain insight into carrier dynamics and transport characteristics. Accurate understanding of measurement results establishes the limits and potential of the measurement and enhances its value as a characterization method. Diffusion of carriers outside of the collection volume can have a significant impact on the measured decay but can also provide an estimate of carrier mobility as well as lifetime. In addition to material parameters, the experimental conditions, such as spot size and injection level, can impact the measurement results. Although small spot size provides better resolution, it also increases the impact of diffusion on the decay; if the spot size is much smaller than the diffusion length, it impacts the entire decay. By reproducing experimental 2PE-TRPL decays, the simulations determine the bulk carrier lifetime from the data. The analysis is applied to single-crystal and heteroepitaxial CdTe, material important for solar cells, but it is also applicable to other semiconductors where carrier diffusion from the excitation volume could affect experimental measurements.

    Abstract: Spatial frequency modulated imaging (SPIFI) enables the use of an extended excitation source for linear and nonlinear imaging with single element detection. To date, SPIFI has only been used with fixed excitation source geometries. Here, we explore the potential for the SPIFI method when a spatial light modulator (SLM) is used to program the excitation source, opening the door to a more versatile, random access imaging environment. In addition, an in-line, quantitative pulse compensation and measurement scheme is demonstrated using a new technique, spectral phase and amplitude retrieval and compensation (SPARC). This enables full characterization of the light exposure conditions at the focal plane of the random access imaging system, an important metric for optimizing, and reporting imaging conditions within specimens.
