Light-matter interactions in conventional nanophotonic structures typically lack directionality. Furthermore, surface waves supported by conventional material substrates do not usually have a preferential direction of propagation, and their…
The seamless transition between micro-scale photonics and nano-scale plasmonics requires the mitigation between different waveguiding mechanisms as well as between few orders of magnitude in the field lateral size, down to a small fraction…
Nonreciprocal magnon propagation has recently become a highly potential approach of developing chip-embedded microwave isolators for advanced information processing. However, it is challenging to achieve large nonreciprocity in miniaturized…
