Mimicking localized surface plasmons with structural dispersion by Li, Zhuo, Liu, Liangliang, Fernández-Domínguez, Antonio I., Shi, Jianfeng, Gu, Changqing, García-Vidal, Francisco J., Luo, Yu

“…The results reveal that structured-dispersion-induced localized surface plasmons are quite sensitive to the background refractive index but relatively robust to the size and shape of the resonator. These findings open up a new avenue for designer localized surface waves at low frequencies and may find applications in miniaturization of microwave resonators, filters, and terahertz biosensors.…”

Carrier localization on the nanometer-scale limits transport in metal oxide photoabsorbers by Schleuning, Markus, Kölbach, Moritz, Ahmet, Ibbi, Präg, Raphael, Gottesman, Ronen, Gunder, Rene, Zhang, Mengyuan, Wargulski, Dan Ralf, Abou-Ras, Daniel, Grave, Daniel A., Abdi, Fatwa F., van de Krol, Roel, Schwarzburg, Klaus, Eichberger, Rainer, Friedrich, Dennis, Hempel, Hannes

“…Their kinetics of thermalization, trapping, localization, and recombination are monitored continuously 100 fs–100 µs and mobilities are determined for different probing lengths by combined time-resolved terahertz and microwave spectroscopy. As common issue, we find small mobilities < 3 cm2V-1s-1. Partial carrier localization further slows carrier diffusion beyond localization lengths of 1–6 nm and explains the extraordinarily long conductivity tails, which should not be taken as a sign of long diffusion lengths. …”

Unveiling the chirality of the quantum anomalous Hall effect by Chen, Hongyu, Jin, Yuanjun, Mohammad Yahyavi, Belopolski, Ilya, Shao, Sen, Hou, Tao, Wang, Naizhou, Hsu, Chia-Hsiu, Zhao, Yilin, Yang, Bo, Ma, Qiong, Yin, Jia-Xin, Xu, Su-Yang, Gao, Weibo, Chang, Guoqing

“…The quantized lδz will also give rise to a unique quantized magnetic circular dichroism effect in the case of resonance absorption. By lδz, we find that the chiral flow-direction of an electron in the QAHE is not explicitly related to the intrinsic spin axis, thereby enabling the spin-momentum-unlocking edge states in an antiferromagnetic QAHE system. …”
