The $GW$ approximation is a widely used framework for studying correlated materials, but it struggles with certain limitations, such as its inability to explain pseudogap phenomena. To overcome these problems, we propose a systematic…

A Coherent Perfect Absorber (CPA) exploits the interferometric nature of light to deposit all of a light field's incident energy into an otherwise weakly absorbing sample. The downside of this concept is that the necessary destructive…

Coherent perfect absorption (CPA) is an interferometric effect that guarantees full absorption in a lossy layer independently of its intrinsic losses. To date, it has been observed only at a single wavelength or narrow bandwidths, whereupon…
In recent works, it has been shown rather generally that the time-reversed process of lasing at threshold realizes a coherent perfect absorber (CPA). In a CPA, a lossy medium in an optical cavity with a specific degree of dissipation, equal…
