Bynatalierbaggett March 4, 2025April 22, 2025

Sunjung AnKyung Hee University, Seoul, Republic of Korea _______________________________________ We report narrowband thermal radiation from a graphene emitter integrated with a hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) photonic crystal cavity (PCC). The graphene emitter, encapsulated by hBN,shows broadband thermal radiation[1]. By fabricating hBN PCCs with a designed array of holes,including defects, and integrating the graphene emitter into…

Phonon polaritons for twistoptics and strong vibrational coupling at the nanoscale
BySarah Ross March 1, 2025March 1, 2025

Pablo Alonso-González University of Oviedo – Asturias, Spain_______________________________________ Strong coupling between light and molecular vibrations (Vibrational Strong Coupling, VSC) is of great fundamental and technological interest, as it promises the ability to manipulate molecular properties such as chemical reactivity, selectivity, and photostability. Recent experiments have studied VSC at the nanoscale using phonon polaritons in h-BN,…
