Intrinsic plasmon canalization in the biaxial van der Waals crystal MoOCl
Farid Aghashirinov, Andrea Mancini, Lin Nan +4
Anisotropic polaritons in low-symmetry crystals allow for subwavelength confinement and directional routing of light. The most extreme form of such anisotropy arises at the topolog…

Phonon-polaritonic skyrmions: Transition from bubble- to Néel-type
Florian Mangold, Enrico Baù, Lin Nan +6
Optical skyrmions are members of the emerging topological branch of solid-state physics and photonics, allowing for control over topological light textures through light-matter int…

Anisotropic electron gas in a hyperbolic van der Waals material
Nicola Melchioni, Andrea Mancini, Antonio Ambrosio
Electron gases in low dimensional materials exhibit unconventional transport and optical phenomena due to reduced phase space, enhanced interactions, and strong sensitivity to latt…
