Topological insulators are a class of electronic materials exhibiting robust edge states
immune to perturbations and disorder. This concept has been successfully adapted in …

We report a record-size, two-dimensional polariton condensate of a fraction of a millimeter
radius free from the presence of an exciton reservoir. This macroscopically occupied state is …

Two-dimensional electronic materials such as graphene and transition metal dichalgenides
feature unique electrical and optical properties due to the conspirative effect of band …

The self-imaging, or Talbot effect, that occurs with the propagation of periodically structured
waves has enabled several unique applications in optical metrology, image processing …

We experimentally demonstrate and theoretically predict a new and unprecedented optical
carpet that includes all the geometric shadow and far-field and near-field diffraction patterns …

We demonstrate, experimentally and theoretically, controlled loading of an exciton-polariton
vortex chain into a 1D array of trapping potentials. Switching between two types of vortex …

Both integer and fractional electromagnetically induced Talbot effects are experimentally
investigated in a coherent rubidium 5S_1/2− 5P_3/2− 5D_5/2 ladder-type system. By …

The electromagnetically induced Talbot effect (EITE) resulting from the repeated self-
reconstruction of a spatially intensity-modulated probe field is experimentally demonstrated …
