We show that a spinor traveling along a one-dimensional helical path develops a spin-orbit coupling as a result of the curvature of the path. We estimate the magnitude of the associated spin polarization and obtain values typical of many…
Chiral-induced spin selectivity (CISS) is a phenomenon in which electron spins are polarized as they are transported through chiral molecules, and the spin polarization depends on the handedness of the chiral molecule. In this study, we…
We propose to realize a two-dimensional chiral topological superconducting (TSC) state from the quantum anomalous Hall plateau transition in a magnetic topological insulator thin film through the proximity effect to a conventional $s$-wave…
We theoretically study circular dichroism of chiral molecules embedded inside a helicity-preserving Fabry-P\'erot cavity. We find an increase of the intrinsic chiroptical response of the molecules by 2 orders of magnitude and report the…
Most superconductors have an isotropic, single component order parameter, and are well described by the BCS theory for superconductivity. Unconventional, multiple components superconductors are exceptionally rare and are much less…
Chiral emission can be achieved from a circularly polarized dipole emitter in a nanophotonic structure that possess special polarization properties such as a polarization singularity, namely with right or left circularly polarization…
Normal-conducting mesoscopic systems in contact with a superconductor are classified by the symmetry operations of time reversal and rotation of the electron's spin. Four symmetry classes are identified, which correspond to Cartan's…
Here I investigate both numerically and experimentally, the polarization conversion capabilities of a rectangular array of holes with two unequal orthogonal periodicities. We show that it is possible to tune the periodicities in such a way…
Recent experimental evidences point to rotation symmetry breaking superconductivity in doped Bi$_2$Se$_3$, where the relevant order parameter belongs to a two-component odd-parity representation $E_u$ of the crystal point group. The $E_u$…
Chiral superconductors, a unique class of unconventional superconductors in which the complex superconducting order parameter winds clockwise or counter-clockwise in the momentum space, represent a topologically non-trivial system with…
Spin-polarized band structure of the three-dimensional quantum spin Hall insulator $\rm Bi_{1-x}Sb_{x}$ (x=0.12-0.13) was fully elucidated by spin-polarized angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy using a high-yield spin polarimeter…
We propose a tilt-assisted chirality Hall effect in the normal metal-superconductor (NS) junctions based on the time-reversal broken type-I Weyl semimetals. It is found that the chirality-contrasting skew reflection occurs at the NS…
Theoretical investigations of different routes to coherent perfect polarization rotation illustrate its phenomenological connection with coherent perfect absorption. Studying systems with broken parity, layering, combined Faraday rotation…
Optical systems with gain and loss that respect Parity-Time (PT) symmetry can have real eigenvalues despite their non-Hermitian character. Chiral systems impose circularly polarized waves which do not preserve their handedness under the…
Control of the angular momentum of light is a key technology for next-generation nano-optical devices and optical communications, including quantum communication and encoding. We propose an approach to controllably generate circularly…
Building on previous work, we calculate the temperature- and frequency-dependent {\it anomalous} Hall conductivity for the putative multiband chiral superconductor $\Sr$ using a simple microscopic two-orbital model without impurities. A…
Second-order topological insulators are crystalline insulators with a gapped bulk and gapped crystalline boundaries, but topologically protected gapless states at the intersection of two boundaries. Without further spatial symmetries, five…
We report a novel hemispherical micro-cavity that is comprised of a planar integrated semiconductor distributed Bragg reflector (DBR) mirror, and an external, concave micro-mirror having a radius of curvature $50\mathrm{\mu m}$. The…
Built on a realistic multiband tight-binding model, mirror symmetry is used to map a calcium-intercalated bilayer graphene Hamiltonian into two independent single layer graphene-like Hamiltonians with renormalized hopping. The…
Being an assembly of identical upright helixes, a chiral sculptured thin film (CSTF) exhibits the circular Bragg phenomenon and can therefore be used as a circular- polarization filter in a spectral regime called the circular Bragg regime.…
