Magneto-optics is the use of magnetic fields to influence light propagation. This usually involves changing the physical properties of the medium through which the light is travelling. An example ...

By miniaturizing cold atom trapping with integrated photonics, researchers are making quantum technologies portable. Their ...

Materials are known to interact with electromagnetic fields in different ways, which reflect their structures and underlying ...

Researchers at UCSB have successfully moved quantum experiments from bulky lab setups to a chip, in a global first.

Conventionally, these systems use free-space lasers and optics, generating beams that ... cold atoms using the ubiquitous 3-dimensional magneto-optical trap (3D-MOT). The challenge that ...

Abstract: This paper explores advanced thin-film magneto-optic-plasmonic (TF-MOP) sensors that integrate the Photonic Spin Hall Effect (PSHE) into the sensing applications. The proposed structure, ...
