A Contemporary View On Topological Band Theory & New Euler Class Phenomena

Seminar Link: Picoelectrodynamics Theory Network - YouTube A Contemporary View On Topological Band Theory & New Euler Class Phenomena In this talk, I will cover a selection of our recent work on topological characterizations in a rather colloquial style. In particular, I will review how constraints...

A Dual Perspective On Inverse Design

Seminar Link: Picoelectrodynamics Theory Network - YouTube Abstract For a wide range of technologically prescient applications---spanning from achieving low-power nonlinear response to mode-multiplexing in optical communication---device architectures discovered via computational methods increasingly...

A Dual Perspective On Inverse Design by Prof Sean Molesky

Prof Sean Molesky discussed how Lagrange duality heuristics for quadratically constrained quadratic optimization problems (QCQPs) can substantially lessen these knowledge gaps for a variety of common photonic design problems. As showcased by initial applications to topics including radiative...

Bulk Properties of Topological Crystalline Insulators

Seminar Link: Picoelectrodynamics Theory Network - YouTube Abstract The discovery of topological materials is one of the most transformative recent breakthroughs in condensed matter physics, revealing new conceptual surprises in established topics such as the phases of matter and the behavior of...
