Giant photonic spin Hall effect empowered by polarization-dependent quasibound states in the continuum in compound grating waveguide structures by Wu, Feng, Liu, Tingting, Long, Yang, Xiao, Shuyuan, Chen, Gengyan

“…In this paper, we theoretically propose a polarization-dependent bound state in the continuum (BIC) in a compound grating waveguide structure based on the selectable guided resonance at near-infrared wavelengths. Empowered by the unique resonant property and polarization-dependent property of the quasi-BIC, the transverse shift of the PSHE can be intensively enhanced to the order of hundreds of micrometers. …”

Coherent energy scale revealed by ultrafast dynamics of UX3 (X = Al, Sn, Ga) single crystals by Nair, Saritha K., Zhu, J. X., Sarrao, J. L., Taylor, Antoinette J., Chia, Elbert E. M.

“…For UGa3, our data are consistent with the formation of a spin density wave gap as evidenced from the quasidivergence of the relaxation time τ near the Néel temperature TN. For UAl3 and USn3, the relaxation dynamics shows a change from single-exponential to two-exponential behavior below a particular temperature, suggestive of coherence formation of the 5f electrons with the conduction band electrons. …”
