Anisotropic optical chirality and Lipkin's zilch tensor

Ilia Smagin, Sergey Dyakov

Optical chirality density is widely used as a scalar measure for describing the chiral properties of electromagnetic fields and their interaction with isotropic chiral media. Howev…

Casimir effect in twisted photonic gratings with in-plane chirality

Natalia S. Salakhova, Sergey A. Dyakov, Ilia M. Fradkin +1

We investigate the Casimir effect in a system of two twisted photonic gratings made of uniaxially anisotropic materials. Two distinct configuretions are explored: a stack of symmet…
