Topological spin defects of light

Haiwen Wang, Charles C. Wojcik, Shanhui Fan

Topological defects are found in a variety of systems, and their existence are robust under perturbations due to their topological nature. Here we introduce a new type of topologic…

Eigenvalue topology of non-Hermitian band structures in two and three dimensions

Charles C. Wojcik, Kai Wang, Avik Dutt +2

In the band theory for non-Hermitian systems, the energy eigenvalues, which are complex, can exhibit non-trivial topology which is not present in Hermitian systems. In one dimensio…

Observation of arbitrary topological windings of a non-Hermitian band

Kai Wang, Avik Dutt, Ki Youl Yang +3

The non-trivial topological features in the energy band of non-Hermitian systems provide promising pathways to achieve robust physical behaviors in classical or quantum open system…

-Symmetric Topological Edge-Gain Effect

Alex Y. Song, Xiao-Qi Sun, Avik Dutt +6

We demonstrate a non-Hermitian topological effect that is characterized by having complex eigenvalues only in the edge states of a topological material, despite the fact that the m…

Absence of unidirectionally propagating surface plasmon-polaritons in nonreciprocal plasmonics

Siddharth Buddhiraju, Yu Shi, Alex Song +5

In the presence of an external magnetic field, the surface plasmon polariton that exists at the metal-dielectric interface is believed to support a unidirectional frequency range n…
