Light propagating in linear and nonlinear waveguide lattices exhibits behaviour
characteristic of that encountered in discrete systems. The diffraction properties of these …

We demonstrate the first experimental realization of a dispersionless state, in a photonic
Lieb lattice formed by an array of optical waveguides. This engineered lattice supports three …

The development of new artificial structures and materials is today one of the major research
challenges in optics. In most studies so far, the design of such structures has been based on …

In the last decade many important advances have taken place in the field of quantum optics,
