Nanoimprinted topological laser in the visible

Qiang Zhang, Rui Duan, Yutian Ao +6

Nanoimprint lithography (NIL) is a widely used high-throughput fabrication technique for photonic devices, yet its reliability is often compromised by the inevitable imperfections…

Controlling photonic spin Hall effect via exceptional points

Xinxing Zhou, Xiao Lin, Zhicheng Xiao +4

The photonic spin Hall effect (SHE), featured by a spin-dependent transverse shift of an impinging optical beam driven by its polarization handedness, has many applications includi…

Experimental demonstration of an ultra-thin three-dimensional thermal cloak

Hongyi Xu, Xihang Shi, Fei Gao +2

We report the first experimental realization of a three-dimensional thermal cloak shielding an air bubble in a bulk metal without disturbing external thermal flux. The cloak is mad…

Wide-angle giant photonic spin Hall effect

Zhihao Chen, Yu Chen, Yaodong Wu +5

Photonic spin Hall effect is a manifestation of spin-orbit interaction of light and can be measured by a transverse shift λof photons with opposite spins. The precise measurement…
