We study the persistent random walk of photons on a one-dimensional lattice of random transmittances. Transmittances at different sites are assumed independent, distributed according to a given probability density $f(t)$. Depending on the…
Random surface texturing of an optically-thick film to increase the path length of scattered light rays, first proposed nearly thirty years ago, has thus far remained the most effective approach for photon absorption over the widest set of…
We study the bandgap structure of two-dimensional photonic crystals created by a triangular lattice of rotated hexagonal holes, and explore the effects of the reduced symmetry in the unit-cell geometry on the value of the absolute bandgap…
The propagation of a weak probe field in a four-level N-type quantum system in the presence of spontaneously generated coherence (SGC) is theoretically investigated. The optical properties of the system are studied and it is shown that the…
The lattice gas model of condensation in a heterogeneous pore system, represented by a random graph of cells, is studied using an exact analytical solution. A binary mixture of pore cells with different coordination numbers is shown to…
We report on singular and nonsingular flat bands in a Sierpinski fractal-like photonic lattice. We demonstrate that the the lowest two bands, being isolated and degenerate due to geometrical frustration, are nonsingular and thus can be…
We propose a time-dependent photonic structure, in which the carrier frequency of an optical pulse is shifted without changing its shape. The efficiency of the device takes advantage of slow group velocities of light attainable in periodic…
The photogalvanic effect (PGE) occurring in noncentrosymmetric materials enables the generation of a dc photocurrent at zero bias with a high polarization sensitivity, which makes it very attractive in photodetection. However, the magnitude…
Hyperuniform disorder is a type of correlated disorder characterized by vanishing spectral density at small wavevectors, making the configuration effectively homogeneous on long length scales. In photonics, hyperuniform disorder is…
Chiral edge modes in photonic topological insulators host great potential to realize slow-light waveguides with topological protection. Increasing the winding of the chiral edge mode around the Brillouin zone can lead to broadband…
Despite the steady advancements in nanofabrication made over the past decade that had prompted a plethora of intriguing applications across various fields, achieving compatibility between miniaturized photonic devices and electronic…
This paper presents a theoretical analysis on bulk and edge states in honeycomb lattice photonic crystals with and without time-reversal and/or space-inversion symmetries. Multiple Dirac cones are found in the photonic band structure and…
Many of the properties of graphene are tied to its lattice structure, allowing for tuning of charge carrier dynamics through mechanical strain. The graphene electro-mechanical coupling yields very large pseudomagnetic fields for small…
While ideal photonic crystals would support modes with a vanishing group velocity, state-of-the art structures have still only provided a slow-down by roughly two orders of magnitude. We find that the induced density of states caused by…
The energy spectrum of a system of Bose atoms in the superfluid phase in an optical lattice of the graphene type has been studied. The dispersion laws for the energy bands and the single particle spectral densities are calculated in the…
We study the anomalous electromagnetic scattering in the homogenization regime, by a subwavelength thin layer of periodically distributed plasmonic nanoparticles on a perfect conducting plane. By using layer potential techniques, we derive…
The magnetic phase diagram at zero external field of an ensemble of dipoles with uniaxial anisotropy on a FCC lattice has been investigated from tempered Monte Carlo simulations. The uniaxial anisotropy is characterized by a random…
In this paper we introduce Parity-Time ($\cal PT$) symmetric perturbation to a one-dimensional Lieb lattice, which is otherwise $\cal P$-symmetric and has a flat band. In the flat band there are a multitude of degenerate dark states, and…
A non-equilibrium particle transport model, the totally asymmetric exclusion process, is studied on a one-dimensional lattice with a hierarchy of fixed long-range connections. This model breaks the particle-hole symmetry observed on an…
We consider the dynamics of noninteracting electrons on a square lattice in the presence of a magnetic flux {\alpha} and a dc electric field E oriented along the lattice diagonal. In general, the adiabatic dynamics of an electron will be…
