Quantum optics of chiral and antichiral waveguide arrays

Peng Wang, Erik Hiltunen, John C Schotland

We study single-photon scattering by atoms in arrays of one-way waveguides. We investigate both chiral and antichiral arrays, where the one-way waveguides are aligned in the same a…

Optical branched flow in nonlocal nonlinear medium

Tongxun Zhao, Yudian Wang, Ruihan Peng +2

When light propagates through a randomly correlated, slowly varying medium, it generates optical branched flow. Previous studies have demonstrated that the self-focusing effect in…

Topological pumping of light governed by Fibonacci numbers

Ruihan Peng, Kai Yang, Qidong Fu +5

Topological pumping refers to transfer of a physical quantity governed by the systemtopology, resulting in quantized amounts of the transferred quantities. It is a ubiqui-tous wave…

Observation of localization of light in photonic quasicrystals of diverse symmetries

Peng Wang, Qidong Fu, Vladimir V. Konotop +2

Quasicrystals are ubiquitous in nature. Beyond crystalline solids, they can be created as optically induced or technologically fabricated structures in photonic and phononic system…

Observation of Thouless pumping of light in quasiperiodic photonic crystals

Kai Yang, Qidong Fu, Henrique C. Prates +4

Topological transport is determined by global properties of physical media where it occurs and is characterized by quantized amounts of adiabatically transported quantities. Discov…
