Published in PR Applied, our recent work develops the theoretical and computational framework to analyze the spin angular momentum of thermal radiation from bodies with nonuniform temperature profiles. By considering a sample problem of a long silica wire held under a temperature gradient within its...
Check out our recent work with Nitrogen-vacancy centers which has been published in Optics Letters. We use photonic spin density to induce an effective static magnetic field for NV centers at room temperature. To know more about the paper, click here.
Prof Joseph talked about Hyperbolic lattices which are a new form of synthetic quantum matter in which particles effectively hop on a discrete tiling of two-dimensional hyperbolic space, a non-Euclidean space of negative curvature. Hyperbolic tilings were studied by the geometer H.S.M. Coxeter and...
Dr. Robert-Jan Slager covered a selection of our recent work on topological characterizations in a rather colloquial style. In particular, he reviewed how constraints on symmetry eigenvalues can directly be linked to topological invariants, reproducing involved K-theory evaluations from a simple...
We will host a pico-seminar series with world-leading experts on the topic. While we are biased towards theorists, we will certainly have many experimental speakers as well. How does light interact with matter? The problem has attracted interest over a long time but only now do we have the...
