Shaping Near Fields of Photonic Modes into Topological Textures
Jonas Biechteler, Michael Hirler, Connor Heimig +5
Topological textures of light, such as optical vortices and skyrmions, are attractive for high-density information encoding and light-matter interactions. In the near field, topolo…
Plasmonic Fourier Surfaces Revisited: Relating Bandgaps with Bound States in the Continuum
Alexander A. Antonov, Connor Heimig, Hannah Niese +5
Periodically corrugated metal interfaces supporting surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) belong to the earliest nanoplasmonic platforms. Even simplest reliefs described by a few harmo…
Orbital Angular Momentum Locking via Bound States in the Continuum
Enrico Baù, Connor Heimig, Jonas Biechteler +6
Optical vortices are electromagnetic fields twisting around a phase singularity, resulting in quantized orbital angular momentum (OAM). When such vortices are formed by evanescent…
Extreme light confinement mediated by the transverse Kerker effect
Sergei Gladyshev, Connor Heimig, Adrià Canós Valero +7
Dielectric nanoparticles can be engineered to scatter light predominantly in the transverse direction, a phenomenon known as the transverse Kerker effect. Although complete cancela…
Integration of 2D Materials in Radial van der Waals Heterostructure Metasurfaces
Connor Heimig, Jonas Biechteler, Cristina Cruciano +12
Two-dimensional semiconductors, such as monolayer transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDC), exhibit strong excitonic transitions at room temperature and offer a unique platform for…
Accessible, All-Polymer Metasurfaces: Low Effort, High Quality Factor
Michael Hirler, Alexander A. Antonov, Enrico Baù +4
Optical metasurfaces supporting resonances with high quality factors offer an outstanding platform for applications such as non-linear optics, light guiding, lasing, sensing, light…
Topological Control of Polaritonic Flatbands in Anisotropic van der Waals Metasurfaces
Connor Heimig, Thomas Weber, Cristina Cruciano +9
Anisotropic van der Waals (vdW) materials exhibit direction-dependent optical and electronic properties, making them valuable for tailoring directional light-matter interactions. R…
Fabrication Optimization of van der Waals Metasurfaces: Inverse Patterning Boosts Resonance Quality Factor
Jonas Biechteler, Connor Heimig, Thomas Weber +5
Van der Waals (vdW) materials have garnered growing interest for use as nanophotonic building blocks that offer precise control over light-matter interaction at the nanoscale, such…
Spatially Encoded Polaritonic Ultra-Strong Coupling in Gradient Metasurfaces with Epsilon-Near-Zero Modes
Enrico Bau, Andreas Aigner, Jonas Biechteler +4
We introduce a platform to achieve ultra-strong coupling (USC) between light and matter using widely available materials. USC is a light-matter interaction regime characterized by…
Chiral Nonlinear Polaritonics with van der Waals Metasurfaces
Connor Heimig, Alexander A. Antonov, Dmytro Gryb +10
In the strong-coupling regime, the interaction between light and matter reaches a hybridization state where the photonic and material components are inseparably linked. Using tailo…
