We review quantum mechanical and optical pseudo-Hermitian systems with an emphasis on
PT-symmetric systems important for optics and electrodynamics. One of the most interesting …

A surface wave (SW) in optics is a light wave, which is supported at an interface of two
dissimilar media and propagates along the interface with its field amplitude exponentially …

Various topological laser concepts have recently enabled the demonstration of robust light-
emitting devices that are immune to structural deformations and tolerant to fabrication …

This work presents a dielectric material-based optical Tamm state (OTS) excitation
technique with modified dispersion characteristics for photonic spin hall effect (PSHE) …

Abstract Three-dimensional (3D) artificial metacrystals host rich topological phases, such as
Weyl points, nodal rings, and 3D photonic topological insulators. These topological states …

In this paper, the thermal stability of a Bloch Surface Wave (BSW) assisted bio-photonic
sensor is investigated. The structural analysis is carried out using the transfer matrix method …

Optical surface waves, highly localized modes bound to the surface of media, enable
manipulation of light at nanoscale, thus impacting a wide range of areas in nanoscience. By …

We present a theory of topological edge states in one-dimensional resonant photonic
crystals with a compound unit cell. Contrary to the conventional electronic topological states …

Photonic bound states in the continuum (BICs) are eigenmodes with an infinite lifetime,
which coexist with a continuous spectrum of radiating waves. BICs are not only of great …

This study presents the development and characterization of a disposable biochip for the
detection of antibodies against the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein, a well-known target for …
