Kavli Affiliate: Joel E. Moore | First 5 Authors: Kai Klocke, Joel E. Moore, Jason Alicea, Gábor B. Halász, | Summary: Recent theoretical studies inspired by experiments on the Kitaev magnet $alpha$-RuCl$_3$ highlight the nontrivial impact of phonons on the thermal Hall conductivity of chiral topological phases. Here we introduce mixed mesoscopic-macroscopic devices that allow […]
Kavli Affiliate: Nobuhiko Katayama | Summary:Pancharatnam-based achromatic half-wave plates (AHWP) achieve high polarization efficiency over a broad waveband. These AWHPs generally contain a property whereby the optic axis is dependent on the electromagnetic frequency of the incident radiation. When the AHWP is used to measure incident polarized radiation with a finite detection bandwidth, this frequency […]
