Casimir forces in the flatland: Interplay between photoinduced phase transitions and quantum Hall physics

We investigate how photoinduced topological phase transitions and the magnetic-field-induced quantum Hall effect simultaneously influence the Casimir force between two parallel sheets of staggered two-dimensional (2D) materials of the graphene …

Two-Photon Spontaneous Emission in Atomically Thin Plasmonic Nanostructures

The ability to harness light-matter interactions at the few-photon level plays a pivotal role in quantum technologies. Single photons—the most elementary states of light—can be generated on demand in atomic and solid state emitters. Two-photon states …
