Observation of symmetry breaking in time-varying scattering systems
Miguel Verde, David Globosits, Thomas F. Allard +5
From the Higgs mechanism to magnetic ordering, spontaneous symmetry breaking organizes physics across scales. Whether an analogous transition governs waves scattered by periodicall…
Fluctuational Quantum Electrodynamics of Dispersive Time-Varying Media
Jaime E. Sustaeta-Osuna, Thomas F. Allard, Francisco J. García-Vidal +1
We present the theoretical framework of fluctuational quantum electrodynamics in frequency-dispersive and dissipative time-varying media. Our theory accounts for dispersion and los…
Interface States in Space-Time Photonic Crystals: Topological Origin, Propagation and Amplification
Alejandro Caballero, Thomas F. Allard, Paloma A. Huidobro
Studying the topology of spatiotemporal media poses a fundamental challenge: their remarkable properties stem from breaking spatial and temporal symmetries, yet this same breaking…
Near-Field Gain and Far-Field Control via a Plasmonic Time Crystal Slab
Jaime E. Sustaeta-Osuna, Thomas F. Allard, Francisco J. García-Vidal +1
Light matter interactions can be substantially altered in the presence of time varying media. We study the interaction between a harmonic electric dipole and a plasmonic time cryst…
Broadband Dipole Absorption in Dispersive Photonic Time Crystals
Thomas F. Allard, Jaime E. Sustaeta-Osuna, Francisco J. García-Vidal +1
Photonic media modulated periodically in time, termed photonic time crystals (PTCs), have attracted considerable attention for their ability to open momentum bandgaps hosting ampli…
