Optical diode based on the chirality of guided photons [PDF]
, 2015 Photons are nonchiral particles: their handedness can be both left and right. However, when light is transversely confined, it can locally exhibit a transverse spin whose orientation is fixed by the propagation direction of the photons.

Highly Efficient Coupling of Nanolight Emitters to a Ultra-wide Tunable Nanofibre Cavity [PDF]
, 2015 Solid-state microcavities combining ultra-small mode volume, wide-range resonance frequency tuning, as well as lossless coupling to a single mode fibre are integral tools for nanophotonics and quantum networks. We developed an integrated system providing

Polarisation control of linear dipole radiation using spin-momentum locking of light [PDF]
, 2017 We experimentally demonstrate that a linear dipole is not restricted to emit linearly polarised light, provided it is embedded in the appropriate nanophotonic environment.

Creating superfluid vortex rings in artificial magnetic fields [PDF]
, 2017 Artificial gauge fields are versatile tools that allow to influence the dynamics of ultracold atoms in Bose-Einstein condensates. Here we discuss a method of artificial gauge field generation stemming from the evanescent fields of the curved surface of ...

Journal of Taibah University for Science, 2020 The quest for improved visible light absorption in ZnO-based photocatalysts and photodetectors is a prevailing research problem. One method of solving this problem is by narrowing the band gap of this material well into the range of visible light energy.
