Precise one-dimensional nanochannels in transition metal dichalcogenides as building blocks for advanced nanophotonics

Abhay V. Agrawal, Wouter Holman, Betül Küçüköz +2

Atomically sharp edges are essential for future high-index nanophotonic structures, yet conventional lithography and dry etching methods inevitably introduce edge roughness that li…

Quantum trapping and rotational self-alignment in triangular Casimir microcavities

Betül Küçüköz, Oleg V. Kotov, Adriana Canales +4

Casimir torque -- a rotational motion caused by the minimization of the zero-point energy -- is a problem that attracts significant theoretical and experimental interest. Recently,…
