Magnetic bound states are a general phenomenon in low dimensional antiferromagnets with gapped singlet states. Using Raman scattering on three compounds as dedicated examples we show how exchange topology, dimensionality, defects and…
In quantum theory, bound states are described by eigenvalue equations, which usually cannot be solved exactly. However, some simple general theorems allow to derive rigorous statements about the corresponding solutions, that is, energy…

Surface bound states in the continuum (SBICs) have been found to occur in diverse settings, but so far always at the interface of non-homogeneous media, such as discrete lattices or periodic systems. Here we show that they can also exist at…

Bound states in the continuum (BICs) are spatially localized eigenmodes that remain perfectly confined even though their energies reside within a continuum of radiating modes. BICs were predicted in 1929, but their experimental realization…
Cavities play a fundamental role in wave phenomena from quantum mechanics to electromagnetism and dictate the spatiotemporal physics of lasers. In general, they are constructed by closing all "doors" through which waves can escape. We…
A quantum particle moving under the influence of singular interactions on embedded surfaces furnish an interesting example from the spectral point of view. In these problems, the possible occurrence of a bound state is perhaps the most…
