Observation of topological photonic edge states in Silicon
Wedneday, June 26, 2013
14:00 - 15:00
HIT E41.1
Abstract
Systems with topological order exhibit exotic phenomena associated purely
with the boundaries of the system. While most systems with topological
order have been electronic, advances in our understanding of synthetic
gauge fields have enabled investigation of topological order in ultracold
atoms or even with photons. In this talk, I describe our efforts on the
theoretical and the experimental realization of synthetic magnetic fields
for infrared photons at room temperature. Our implementation corresponds to
a spin-orbit Hamiltonian, uses linear optics and does not break time
reversal symmetry. I discuss the observation of edge states for light in
a two-dimensional system and its robustness
against intrinsic and introduced disorders, as proof of topological
order. Furthermore, I will consider the strong photon-photon interactions
regime, which enables the potential realization of fractional quantum
Hall states, in the non-equilibrium pumped regime, relevant for
the photonic systems.

> A PhD Position is available at the group of J.-Prof. Roman Orus at the Johannes-Gutenberg Universität Mainz (http://www.romanorus.com/), funded by the Graduate School of Excellence "Materials Science in Mainz" (http://www.mainz.uni-mainz.de/index.php). The research will concern the development of novel numerical simulation methods for strongly correlated systems based on entanglement and tensor networks. In particular, the student will focus on devising and programming algorithms to study finite-temperature and dissipation properties of 2d quantum lattice systems in the thermodynamic limit, together with potential applications in the study of decoherence effects in relevant quantum states of matter. Students with a good background on quantum mechanics, statistical mechanics, computer programming and linear algebra would be desirable. Outstanding candidates are encouraged to apply by following the formal application procedure from the MAINZ graduate school (see http://www.mainz.uni-mainz.de/How_to_apply.php for details), and by sending a complete curriculum vitae including the names of two referees to roman.orus(a)uni-mainz.com
