Active topological photonics with all-dielectric nanostructures

    Project: Research

    Project Details

    Description

    The rapidly growing demands of information processing have launched a race for compact optical devices transmitting signals without losses. Recent emergence of topological phases of light provides unique opportunities to create new photonic systems immune to scattering losses and disorder. This project aims to address the daunting challenges of topological protection in active and tunable photonic elements by judiciously designing dielectric nanostructures. Bridging all-dielectric nanophotonics with topological physics, new fundamental concepts will be developed to efficiently generate light and guide it safely at the nanoscale. This project expects to have important implications for optical storage, routing, and lasing.
