Spectral gaps in the vibrational modes of disordered solids are key design elements in the synthesis and control of phononic metamaterials that exhibit a plethora of novel elastic and mechanical properties. However, reliably producing these…
We present designs of 2D isotropic, disordered photonic materials of arbitrary size with complete band gaps blocking all directions and polarizations. The designs with the largest gaps are obtained by a constrained optimization method that…
By means of the plane wave method we study spin wave dynamics in two-dimensional bi-component magnonic crystals based on a squeezed hexagonal lattice and consist of a permalloy thin film with cobalt inclusions. We explore the dependence of…
Recently, disordered photonic media and random textured surfaces have attracted increasing attention as strong light diffusers with broadband and wide-angle properties. We report the first experimental realization of an isotropic complete…
An effect of metallization of the magnonic crystal surface on the band gaps formation in the spectra of the surface spin wave (SSW) is studied both theoretically and experimentally. The structures under consideration are one-dimensional…
The design of band-gap metamaterials, i.e., metamaterials with the capability to inhibit wave propagation of a specific frequency range, has numerous potential engineering applications, such as acoustic filters and vibration isolation…
In this Letter, we put forward a resolution to the prolonged ambiguity in energy band gaps between theory and experiments of fabricated graphene nanoribbons (GNRs). Band structure calculations using density functional theory are performed…
We have measured the spatial and spectral dependence of the microwave field inside an open absorbing waveguide filled with randomly juxtaposed dielectric slabs in the spectral region in which the average level spacing exceeds the typical…
We present general design principles for engineering and discovering periodic systems with flat bands. Our paradigm exploits spin-orbit assisted orbital frustration on a lattice to produce band structures that contain multiplets of narrowly…
The design and development of new photonic devices for technological applications requires a deep understanding of the effect of structural properties on the resulting band gap size and its position. Here, we perform a theoretical study of…
The photonic band structures in certain two- and three-dimensional periodic networks made of one-dimensional waveguides are studied by using the Floquet-Bloch theorem. We find that photonic band gaps exist only in those structures where the…
We focus on the confinement of two-dimensional Dirac fermions within the waveguides created by realistic magnetic fields. Understanding of their band structure is of our main concern. We provide easily applicable criteria, mostly depending…
We report calculations of the electronic structure of silicene and the stability of its weakly buckled honeycomb lattice in an external electric field oriented perpendicular to the monolayer of Si atoms. We find that the electric field…
Motivated by the recent theoretical studies on a two-dimensional (2D) chiral Hamiltonian based on the Su-Schrieffer-Heeger chains, we experimentally and computationally demonstrate that topological flat frequency bands can occur at open…
A theory is presented for the modification of bandgaps in atomically thin boron nitride (BN) by attractive interactions mediated through phonons in a polarizable substrate, or in the BN plane. Gap equations are solved, and gap enhancements…
We argue that the observed large-scale cosmic microwave anomalies, discovered by WMAP and confirmed by the Planck satellite, are most naturally explained in the context of a marginally-open universe. Particular focus is placed on the dipole…
We have obtained an analytical solution for the dispersion relation of the light field modes in the nanowaveguide structure. The solution has been analyzed for the planar waveguide with metamaterial claddings and dielectric core. The…
By using two ab initio numerical methods we study the effects that disorder has on the spectral gaps and on wave localization in two-dimensional photonic band gap materials. We find that there are basically two different responses depending…
In the framework of magnonics all-optical femtosecond laser experiments are used to study spin waves and their relaxation paths. Magnonic crystal structures based on antidots allow the control over the spin-wave modes. In these…
We compute the local spectrum of the magnetic field near a metallic microstructure at finite temperature. Our main focus is on deviations from a plane-layered geometry for which we review the main properties. Arbitrary geometries are…
