Supersolidity - simultaneous superfluid flow and crystalline order - has been realized in quantum atomic systems but remains unexplored in purely photonic platforms operating at weak light-matter coupling. We predict a supersolid phase of…
In a previous article [E.M. Blokhuis, K.I. Skau, and J.B. Avalos, J. Chem. Phys. 119, 3483 (2003)], a self-consistent field formalism was derived for weakly adsorbing polymers, valid for any chain length. It was shown that the presence of a…
