Leaf Mining Insects and Their Parasitoids in the Old-Growth Forest of the Huron Mountains [PDF]
, 2020 Leaf mining insects in an old-growth forest along the south central shore of Lake Superior in Michigan are documented. We present the results of a 13-year survey of leaf mining species, larval hosts, seasonal occurrence, and parasitoids, as well as ...

Observation of ultrabroadband striped space-time surface plasmon polaritons [PDF]
, 2022 Because surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) are surface waves characterized by one free transverse dimension, the only monochromatic diffraction-free spatial profiles for SPPs are cosine and Airy waves. Pulsed SPP wave packets have been recently formulated that are propagation-invariant and localized in the in-plane dimensions by virtue of a tight ...

Non-Markovian quantum interconnect formed by a surface plasmon polariton waveguide [PDF]
Phys. Rev. A 109, 033518 (2024), 2023 Allowing the generation of effective interactions between distant quantum emitters (QEs) via flying photons, quantum interconnect (QI) is essentially a light-matter interface and acts as a building block in quantum technologies. A surface plasmon polariton (SPP) supported by a metallic waveguide provides an ideal interface to explore strong light ...

Unidirectional Curved Surface Plasmon Polariton in a Radially Magnetized System [PDF]
, 2021 Dynamic manipulation of the surface plasmon polariton (SPP) and wave steering are important in plasmonic applications. In this work, we excite a curved SPP in topological continua by applying a radial magnetic bias. We believe that it is a new technique to create a unidirectional SPP traveling along a curved trajectory. We also derive a Greens function
