We investigate the scattering of scalar harmonic source fields by a periodic pillar, that is, a spatial structure that is periodic in one dimension and of finite extent in the other two. Uniqueness of scattering solutions can be abstracted…
We study the scattering of edge states of 2D topological insulator (TI) in the uniform external magnetic field due to edge imperfections, common in realistic 2D TI samples. The external magnetic field breaks time reversal (TR) symmetry,…
Topological phases play a crucial role in the fundamental physics of light-matter interaction and emerging applications of quantum technologies. However, the topological band theory of waveguide QED systems is known to break down, because…
In this work, we investigate some aspects of an acoustic analogue of the two-dimensional Su-Schrieffer-Heeger model. The system is composed of alternating cross-section tubes connected in a square network, which in the limit of narrow tubes…
In this paper we study the structural, scattering, and wave localization properties of multifractal arrays of electric point dipoles generated from multiplicative random fields with different degrees of multiscale correlations.…
We present a new paradigm for generating complex structured materials based on the three-gap theorem that unifies and generalises several key concepts in the study of localised edge states. Our model has both the discretised coupling…
Topological edge states in systems of two (or more) dimensions offer scattering-free transport, exhibiting robustness to inhomogeneities and disorder. In a different domain, time-modulated systems, such as photonic time crystals (PTCs),…
Tight-binding model on a finite chain is studied with four-fold alternated hopping parameters $t_{1,2,3,4}$. Imposing the open boundary conditions, the corresponding recursion is solved analytically with special attention paid to the…
We study the topological photonic states in one-dimensional (1-D) lattices analogue to the Su-Schrieffer-Heeger (SSH) model beyond the dipole approximation. The electromagnetic resonances of the lattices supported by near-field interactions…
We present a general and useful method to predict the existence, frequency, and spatial properties of gap states in photonic (and other) structures with a gapped spectrum. This method is established using the scattering approach. It offers…
This paper proposes a quantitative description of the low energy edge states at the interface between two-dimensional topological insulators. They are modeled by continuous Hamiltonians as systems of Dirac equations that are amenable to a…
Topological states have been widely investigated in different types of systems and lattices. In the present work, we report on topological edge states in double-wave (DW) chains, which can be described by a generalized Aubry-Andr\'e-Harper…
A tight-binding model for $e_g$ orbitals on a square lattice is investigated. We consider only the nearest-neighbor hopping and the model is characterized by two hopping parameters, $t_1$ and $t_2$. There are Dirac points in the electronic…
The research in topological materials and meta-materials reached maturity and is now gradually entering the phase of practical applications and devices. However, scaling down the experimental demonstrations definitely presents a challenge.…
In this paper we propose a novel approach to aperiodic order in optical science and technology that leverages the intrinsic structural complexity of certain non-polynomial (hard) problems in number theory and cryptography for the…
We have studied the excited states of a one-dimensional donor dimer array by using time-dependent Hartree-Fock and density-functional theories. We find that tuning the inter-donor distances can induce a topological phase transition from a…
The time evolution of a topological Su-Schrieffer-Heeger chain is analyzed through the statistics of speckle patterns. The emergence of topological edge states dramatically affects the dynamical fluctuations of the wavefunction. The…
We study a Su-Schrieffer-Heeger chain coupled to a single mode photonic cavity. Considering an off-resonant regime we use the high-frequency expansion in order to obtain an effective fermionic Hamiltonian with cavity-mediated interactions.…
Photonic structures with topologically nontrivial bands are usually designed by arranging simple meta-atoms, ideally, single-mode ones, in a carefully designed photonic lattice with symmetry that guarantees the emergence of topological…
A rigorous method of calculating the electromagnetic field, the scattering matrix, and scattering cross-sections of an arbitrary finite three-dimensional optical system described by its permittivity distribution is presented. The method is…
