Optical N-plasmon: Topological hydrodynamic excitations in Graphene from repulsive Hall viscosity

Wenbo Sun, Todd Van Mechelen, Sathwik Bharadwaj +2

Edge states occurring in Chern and quantum spin-Hall phases are signatures of the topological electronic band structure in two-dimensional (2D) materials. Recently, a new topologic…

Pico-photonics: Anomalous Atomistic Waves in Silicon

Sathwik Bharadwaj, Todd Van Mechelen, Zubin Jacob

The concept of photonic frequency - momentum dispersion has been extensively studied in artificial dielectric structures such as photonic crystals and metamaterials. Ho…

Optical -insulators: topological obstructions in the atomistic susceptibility tensor

Todd Van Mechelen, Robert-Jan Slager, Sathwik Bharadwaj +1

A powerful result of topological band theory is that nontrivial phases manifest obstructions to constructing localized Wannier functions. In Chern insulators, it is impossible to c…

Optical -invariant of graphene's viscous Hall fluid

Todd Van Mechelen, Zubin Jacob

Over the past three decades, graphene has become the prototypical platform for discovering unique phases of topological matter. Both the Chern insulator and the qu…

Dirac-Maxwell correspondence: Spin-1 bosonic topological insulator for light

Todd Van Mechelen, Zubin Jacob

Fundamental differences between fermions and bosons are revealed in their spin and distribution statistics as well as the discrete symmetries they obey (charge, parity and time). W…
