Observation of Bulk Fermi Arc and Polarization Half Charge from Paired Exceptional Points

Hengyun Zhou, Chao Peng, Yoseob Yoon +6

The ideas of topology have found tremendous success in Hermitian physical systems, but even richer properties exist in the more general non-Hermitian framework. Here, we theoretica…

Polarization state of radiation from a photonic crystal slab

Chia Wei Hsu, Bo Zhen, Marin Soljačić +1

We point out that the polarization state of radiation from a photonic crystal slab is strongly constrained by the direct non-resonant scattering process. The phase difference betwe…

Bound states in the continuum in fiber Bragg gratings

Xingwei Gao, Bo Zhen, Marin Soljačić +2

Optical fibers typically confine light through total internal reflection or through photonic bandgaps. Here we show that light can be perfectly guided in optical fibers through a d…

Dynamically encircling exceptional points: Exact evolution and polarization state conversion

Absar U. Hassan, Bo Zhen, Marin Soljacic +2

We show that a two-level non-Hermitian Hamiltonian with constant off-diagonal exchange elements can be analyzed exactly when the underlying exceptional point is perfectly encircled…

Topological Band Theory for Non-Hermitian Hamiltonians

Huitao Shen, Bo Zhen, Liang Fu

We develop the topological band theory for systems described by non-Hermitian Hamiltonians, whose energy spectra are generally complex. After generalizing the notion of gapped band…
