Fresnel Drag in the Homogenization Limit with Space-Time-Modulated Wire Media
A. B. Yakovlev, M. G. Silveirinha, A. Pal +1
The paper demonstrates that purely electric, space‑time modulation of a metallic wire medium can mimic the Fresnel drag effect of a moving medium, producing nonreciprocal and biani…
Non-Hermitian Linear Electro-Optic Effect Through Interactions of Free and Bound Charges
Sylvain Lannebère, Nader Engheta, Mário G. Silveirinha
In recent years, there has been growing interest in non-Hermitian phenomena in low-symmetry conductors, particularly optical gain driven by electro-optic effects. Conventional semi…
Fluctuation-induced Hall-like lateral forces in a chiral-gain environment
Daigo Oue, Mário G. Silveirinha
Here, we demonstrate that vacuum fluctuations can induce lateral forces on a small particle positioned near a translation-invariant uniform non-Hermitian substrate with chiral gain…
Gain-Momentum Locking in Chiral-Gain Media
João C. Serra, Nader Engheta, Mário G. Silveirinha
Conventional optical materials are characterized by either a dissipative response, which results in polarization-independent absorption, or by a gain response that leads to wave am…
Engineering Topological Phases with a Traveling-Wave Spacetime Modulation
João C. Serra, Mário G. Silveirinha
Time-variant systems have recently garnered considerable attention due to their unique potentials in manipulating electromagnetic waves. Here, a novel class of topological spacetim…
Chiral Gain-Induced Time-Reversal Symmetry Breaking in Quantum Systems
Mário G. Silveirinha, Daigo Oue
Structured light offers a powerful approach to tailor light-matter interactions in quantum systems with chiral properties. While chirality has been extensively studied in passive p…
