About this award

The Department of the Army Materiel Command Research Development and Engineering Command awarded Trustees of Boston University $300,000 on September 15, 2025, under the Basic Scientific Research program (CFDA 12.431) to conduct research integrating non-Hermitian physics with nonlinear optics to enhance infrared photon absorption at the nanoscale. The research addresses engineering spectral singularities in non-Hermitian nonlinear photonic structures for enhanced photon detection in the infrared spectral range, with the goal of enabling single-photon responses beyond the reach of conventional room-temperature infrared photodetectors. Performance occurs in Boston, Massachusetts, with a completion date of September 14, 2028.

Description

The proposed research addresses the integration of non-hermitian physics with nonlinear optics as a powerful new strategy for boosting infrared (IR) photon absorption at the nanoscale, potentially enabling single-photon responses beyond the reach of conventional room temperature IR photodetectors.
