Observation of Landau levels and chiral edge states in photonic crystals through pseudomagnetic fields induced by synthetic strain

Nature Photonics, Published online: 23 April 2024; doi:10.1038/s41566-024-01412-3Strain-engineered pseudomagnetic fields realized in two-dimensional photonic crystals induce flat-band Landau levels at discrete energies as well as chiral edge states. The high density of states and high degeneracy of the flat bands has implications for both on-chip and...

Non-reciprocal band structures in an exciton–polariton Floquet optical lattice

Nature Photonics, Published online: 23 April 2024; doi:10.1038/s41566-024-01424-zA frequency detuning between two pump lasers enables an exciton–polariton Floquet optical lattice and a polariton ‘conveyor belt’. The findings pave the way for Floquet engineering in polariton condensates.
