Photonic crystal cavities (PCCs) are defects in host photonic crystals (PCs) which create bound states in the PC band gap. These bound states are resonant states of the electromagnetic field with a complex resonance frequency and can have…

This work presents a non-local terahertz metasurface integrated into a leaky-wave antenna for robust, wide-angle beam steering. The metasurface encodes a holographic pattern by explicitly inducing tangential and normal susceptibilities,…

It has recently been predicted that a conical singularity (= Dirac point) in the band structure of a photonic crystal produces an unusual 1/L scaling of the photon flux transmitted through a slab of thickness L. This inverse-linear scaling…
