Dynamical Casimir Effects: The Need for Nonlocality in Time-Varying Dispersive Nanophotonics
S. Ali Hassani Gangaraj, George Hanson, Francesco Monticone
Both real and virtual photons can be involved in light-matter interactions. A famous example of the observable implications of virtual photons -- vacuum fluctuations of the quantum…
Exchange splitting and exchange-induced non-reciprocal photonic behavior of graphene in CrI3-graphene vdW heterostructures
Alexander M. Holmes, Samaneh Pakniyat, S. Ali Hassani Gangaraj +3
The exchange splitting and resulting electromagnetic response of graphene in a monolayer chromium triiodide(CrI3) graphene van der Waals(vdW) heterostructure are considered using a…
Spontaneous lateral atomic recoil force close to a photonic topological material
S. Ali Hassani Gangaraj, George W. Hanson, Mauro Antezza +1
We investigate the quantum recoil force acting on an excited atom close to the surface of a nonreciprocal photonic topological insulator (PTI). The main atomic emission channel is…
Robust entanglement with 3D nonreciprocal photonic topological insulators
S. Ali Hassani Gangaraj, George W. Hanson, Mauro Antezza
We investigate spontaneous and pumped entanglement of two level systems in the vicinity of a photonic topological insulator interface, which supports a nonreciprocal (unidirectiona…
Transient and steady-state entanglement mediated by three-dimensional plasmonic waveguides
S. Ali Hassani Gangaraj, Andrei Nemilentsau, George W. Hanson +1
Entanglement between two qubits (two level atoms) mediated by surface plasmons in three-dimensional plasmonic waveguides is studied using a quantum master equation formalism. Two t…
High optical absorption in graphene
S. P. Apell, G. W. Hanson, C. Hägglund
A simple analysis is performed for the absorption properties of graphene; sandwiched between two media. For a proper choice of media and graphene doping/gating one can approach 50-…
