Broadband circularly polarized thermal radiation from magnetic Weyl semimetals
Congratulations to Yifan and Chinmay on their paper, “Broadband circularly polarized thermal radiation from magnetic Weyl semimetals” being published in Optical Materials Express. The paper demonstrates that a planar slab made of magnetic Weyl semimetal (a class of topological materials) can emit...
Edgy light on graphene may bring new one-way information routers
Purdue researchers have developed a “topological circulator” that may improve how information is routed and processed on a chip. Graphene has been the focus of intense research in both academic and industrial settings due to its unique electrical conduction properties. As the thinnest material known...

Quantum Model Unlocks New Approach to Single-Photon Detection
To become more pervasive in daily life, quantum technology needs to better detect single particles of light, called photons, carrying quantum information. The problem is that each photon is a very weak signal, making it difficult for measurement devices to efficiently detect them. Purdue University engineers have proposed a new quantum resource that could help design the next generation of single-photon detectors.
