Coexistence of polariton bound states in the continuum and 2D radiative excitons

Simone Zanotti, Marco Liscidini, Dario Gerace +1

Bound states in the continuum (BICs) enable optical modes with ideally infinite radiative lifetimes despite lying within the radiation continuum. Radiation-matter interaction in pe…

Shaping Bulk Fermi Arcs in the Momentum Space of Photonic Crystal Slabs

Luigi Frau, Simone Zanotti, Lydie Ferrier +2

Exceptional points (EPs) are special spectral degeneracies of non-Hermitian operators: at the EP, the complex eigenvalues coalesce, i.e., they become degenerate in both their real…

A single-photon microwave switch with recoverable control photon

Davide Rinaldi, Davide Nigro, Dario Gerace

Scalable quantum technologies may be applied in prospective architectures employing traditional information processing elements, such as transistors, rectifiers, or switches modula…

Supersolidity of polariton condensates in photonic crystal waveguides

Davide Nigro, Dimitrios Trypogeorgos, Antonio Gianfrate +3

Condensation of exciton-polaritons has been recently observed in one-dimensional photonic crystal waveguides, exploiting the interplay of long-lived gap confined eigenmodes and neg…

Exponential optimization of adiabatic quantum-state preparation

Davide Cugini, Davide Nigro, Mattia Bruno +1

The preparation of a given quantum state on a quantum computing register is a typically demanding operation, requiring a number of elementary gates that scales exponentially with t…
