Spin-Orbit Coupling in Polariton Graphene: Optical Spin Hall Effect and Z Topological Insulator
We show that the TE-TM splitting of planar cavities leads to a special type of spin-orbit coupling for polariton graphene, a honeycomb superstructure formed by pillar microcavities, transforming into an emergent field with Dresselhaus symmetry at the Dirac points of the Brillouin zone. This transformation can be evidenced by the Optical Spin Hall effect. Under an applied magnetic field, polarit...
متن کاملOptical circuits based on polariton neurons in semiconductor microcavities.
By exploiting the polarization multistability of polaritons, we show that polarized signals can be conducted in the plane of a semiconductor microcavity along controlled channels or "neurons." Furthermore, because of the interaction of polaritons with opposite spins it is possible to realize binary logic gates operating on the polarization degree of freedom. Multiple gates can be integrated tog...
متن کاملUltracompact nonreciprocal optical isolator based on guided resonance in a magneto-optical photonic crystal slab.
We design an ultracompact optical isolator with normal incident geometry that operates with a bandwidth that is substantial for a device of this size. For operation in a telecommunication wavelength of 1.55 μm, the thickness of the device is less than 1 μm and the device supports an operating bandwidth of 400 GHz over which the minimum contrast ratio exceeds 25 dB. Our design utilizes guided re...
متن کاملOptical Isolator Utilizing Surface Plasmons
Feasibility of usage of surface plasmons in a new design of an integrated optical isolator has been studied. In the case of surface plasmons propagating at a boundary between a transition metal and a double-layer dielectric, there is a significant difference of optical loss for surface plasmons propagating in opposite directions. Utilizing this structure, it is feasible to fabricate a competiti...
متن کاملBroadband optical modulators based on graphene supercapacitors.
Optical modulators are commonly used in communication and information technology to control intensity, phase, or polarization of light. Electro-optic, electroabsorption, and acousto-optic modulators based on semiconductors and compound semiconductors have been used to control the intensity of light. Because of gate tunable optical properties, graphene introduces new potentials for optical modul...
