“Stealthy and hyperuniform isotropic photonic band gap structure in 3D” Published in PNAS Nexus Categories News Author Julia Kazmierczak Read the full paper: here Link to the journal: here In photonic crystals, the propagation of light is governed by their photonic band structure, an ensemble of propagating states grouped into bands, separated by photonic band gaps. Due to discrete symmetries in spatially strictly periodic dielectric structures their photonic band structure is intrinsically anisotropic. However, … Continue Reading “Stealthy and hyperuniform isotropic photonic band gap structure in 3D” Published in PNAS Nexus
“Ordered and disordered stealthy hyperuniform point patterns across spatial dimensions” Published in Physical Review Research Categories News Author Julia Kazmierczak Read the full paper: here Link to the journal: here In previous work [Phys. Rev. X 5, 021020 (2015)] it was shown that stealthy hyperuniform systems can be regarded as hard spheres in Fourier space in the sense that the structure factor is exactly zero in a spherical region around the origin in analogy with … Continue Reading “Ordered and disordered stealthy hyperuniform point patterns across spatial dimensions” Published in Physical Review Research
“Local order metrics for many-particle systems across length scales” is Published in Physical Review Research Categories News Author Julia Kazmierczak Read the full paper: here Link to the journal: here Formulating order metrics that sensitively quantify the degree of order/disorder in many-particle systems in \(d\)-dimensional Euclidean space \(\mathbb{R}^d\) across length scales is an outstanding challenge in physics, chemistry, and materials science. Since an infinite set of \(n\)-particle correlation functions is required to fully characterize a … Continue Reading “Local order metrics for many-particle systems across length scales” is Published in Physical Review Research
