Quantum Reflection Effects in the Diffraction of Matter Waves

Johannes Fiedler, Eivind K. Osestad, Fabian Spallek +3

Among the fundamental quantum effects, quantum reflection (QR) is one of the most notable phenomena. Approximating arbitrary potentials in the Schrödinger equation as multistep pot…

Strong coupling of a chiral molecule with circularly polarised modes inside a cavity

Lara Marie Tomasch, Fabian Spallek, Guido W. Fuchs +2

We consider the discriminatory interaction of a chiral molecule with circularly polarised modes inside a cavity. Starting from a generalised Jaynes--Cummings model that includes bo…

Spectroscopic footprints of quantum friction in nonreciprocal and chiral media

O. J. Franca, Fabian Spallek, Steffen M. Giesen +4

We investigate how the quantum friction experienced by a polarizable atom moving with constant velocity parallel to a planar interface is modified when the latter consists of chira…

Non-trivial retardation effects in dispersion forces: From anomalous distance dependence to novel traps

Johannes Fiedler, Kristian Berland, Fabian Spallek +4

In the study of dispersion forces, nonretarded, retarded and thermal asymptotes with their distinct scaling laws are regarded as cornerstone results governing interactions at diffe…

Dispersion forces in inhomogeneous planarly layered media: A one-dimensional model for effective polarisabilities

Johannes Fiedler, Fabian Spallek, Priyadarshini Thiyam +4

Dispersion forces such as van der Waals forces between two microscopic particles, the Casimir--Polder forces between a particle and a macroscopic object or the Casimir force betwee…

Optimal trapping of monochromatic light in designed photonic multilayer structures

Fabian Spallek, Andreas Buchleitner, Thomas Wellens

We devise an optimised bi-component multi-layered dielectric stack design to enhance the local irradiance for efficient photovoltaic upconversion materials. The field intensity pro…
