Topology in light: Würzburg researchers create optical phenomenon

Topological light with a twist: A chain of coupled, elliptical micropillars — known as resonators — is excited by a laser (white, center). Depending on its circular polarization, the light propagates in different directions (right-circular to the right – yellow; left-circular to the left – violet). The entire chain shown at the bottom is smaller than the diameter of a human hair.
Researchers at the Würzburg site of the Cluster of Excellence ctd.qmat have successfully transferred the topological quantum Hall and spin Hall effects to a hybrid light–matter system using targeted material design. more
