Soft self-assembly of Weyl materials for light and sound

Posted by klaurent Cornell

Kavli Affiliate: Ulrich Wiesner | First 5 Authors: Michel Fruchart, Seung-Yeol Jeon, Kahyun Hur, Vadim Cheianov, Ulrich Wiesner | Summary: Soft materials can self-assemble into highly structured phases which replicate at the mesoscopic scale the symmetry of atomic crystals. As such, they offer an unparalleled platform to design mesostructured materials for light and sound. Here, […]
