Observation of naturally canalized phonon polaritons in LiV2O5 thin layers

Abstract Polariton canalization is characterized by intrinsic collimation of energy flow along a single crystalline axis. This optical phenomenon has been experimentally demonstrated at the nanoscale by stacking and twisting van der Waals (vdW) layers of α-MoO3, by combining α-MoO3 and graphene, or...
