Topological Photonic Devices and Circuits at Terahertz Frequencies
This review examines how 3D topological insulators and emerging topological photonic phases enable robust, low‐loss and defect‐immune terahertz devices. Fundamental properties, device implementations and topological transport mechanisms are surveyed, revealing new opportunities for reconfigurable, high‐performance THz components and scalable ...

Ultralow‐Backscattering Induced Mode Splitting in Chipscale Valley Photonic Topological Cavities
The proposed in‐situ metrology based on mode splitting quantifies the ultralow backscattering of topological valley edge states at a single sharp corner, demonstrating near‐lossless topological transport (0.09 dB/corner) on a silicon chip. This work provides insight into the robustness of the photonic valley system and shows the great potential of ...

Nonlinear Resonance Modulation in Single‐Crystalline VO2‐Integrated Si Ring Resonator
This work first demonstrates a single‐crystalline VO2–Si hybrid ring resonator. The epitaxial lift‐off process enables high‐quality VO2 integration on the dissimilar Si photonic platform. The high‐quality VO2 film exhibits exceptional nonlinear resonance modulation and a steep optical transition across the metal‐insulator transition. ABSTRACT The metal‐

Resonant X‐Ray Diffraction of Conjugated Polymers at the Selenium K‐Edge
Analogous to isomorphous replacement used in X‐ray crystallography studies of proteins, substituting sulfur for selenium in conjugated polymers enables resonant diffraction studies of molecular packing down to the length scale of π‐‐π stacking. Two selenium‐containing polymers are studied with a comparison made between sulfur K‐edge and selenium K‐edge

From Stability to Chaos: A Complete Classification of the Damped Klein‐Gordon Dynamics
ABSTRACT We investigate the transition between stability and chaos in the damped Klein‐Gordon equation, a fundamental model for wave propagation and energy dissipation. Using semigroup methods and spectral criteria, we derive explicit thresholds that determine when the system exhibits asymptotic stability and when it displays strong chaotic dynamics ...
