Quantum Mechanics in Plasmonic Nanocavities: from Theory to Applications
Plasmonic nanocavities based on nanoparticle‐on‐mirror (NPoM) geometry provide a facile and versatile platform for quantum plasmonics and its applications. This review focuses on the fundamental theories of quantum plasmonics, its modeling and computation strategies, and its applications. It is suggested that the proper selection of material systems is

Electrically Tunable Spin‐Orbit Coupled Photonic Lattice in a Liquid Crystal Microcavity
A tunable 1D photonic crystal is created with strong polarization dependence by embedding a uniform lying helix in a planar microcavity. Voltage‐controlled orientation of liquid crystal molecules alters photonic bandgaps and induces spin‐orbit coupling, that can be treated as a non‐Abelian gauge potential.

Microscopic Model Extension for Lattice Thermal Expansion up to Phase‐Transition Temperature
A model extension equation is presented allowing to describe the soft‐mode anharmonicity leading to second‐order or tricritical phase transitions. Extending the Debye–Einstein–anharmonicity approach describing the material thermal expansion, the gliding function enables to understand and visualize the phase transition internal energy contribution.

Crystallographic, electronic and vibrational properties of 2D silicate monolayers
The present work reports a density functional theory investigation of the structural, electronic, Raman and infrared properties of the (001) monolayer of phlogopite [K(Mg,Fe)3Si3AlO10(OH)2, with Mg/Fe ratio ≥ 2] and how they change with different Fe2+/Mg2+ substitutions in the octahedral sheet.Phyllosilicates are promising materials for optoelectronic ...

Hardy's uncertainty principle for Schrödinger equations with quadratic Hamiltonians
Abstract Hardy's uncertainty principle is a classical result in harmonic analysis, stating that a function in L2(Rd)$L^2(\mathbb {R}^d)$ and its Fourier transform cannot both decay arbitrarily fast at infinity. In this paper, we extend this principle to the propagators of Schrödinger equations with quadratic Hamiltonians, known in the literature as ...
