    Recently, it was shown both theoretically and experimentally that certain three-dimensional (3D) materials have Dirac points in the Brillouin zone, thus being 3D analogs of graphene. Moreover, it was suggested that under specific conditions a pair of ...
  • Yulin, A V; Iorsh, Ivan; Shelykh, Ivan (IOP Publishing, 2018-05-31)
    We study the structure of the elementary excitations and their propagation in chiral hybrid structure, comprising an array of two-level systems (TLSs) coupled to a one-dimensional photonic waveguide. The chirality is achieved via spin-locking effect, ...
