Abstract: Electronic nematic materials are characterized by a lowered symmetry of the electronic system compared to the underlying lattice, in analogy to the directional alignment without translational order in nematic liquid crystals. Such nematic phases appear… read more here.

Abstract: Polarization-independent quasi-bound states in the continuum (quasi-BICs) based on asymmetric all-dielectric metasurfaces have attracted significant attention due to their insensitivity to the polarization state of incident light. However, the conventional paradigm of in-plane symmetry breaking… read more here.
