“Hyperuniform States of Matter” published in Physics Reports Categories News Author duyu Read the full paper: here Link to the journal: here In this review article, the reader is introduced to the theoretical foundations of hyperuniform ordered and disordered systems. Special focus will be placed on fundamental and practical aspects of the disordered kinds, including our current state of knowledge of these exotic amorphous systems as well … Continue Reading “Hyperuniform States of Matter” published in Physics Reports
“Light Localization in Local Isomorphism Classes of Quasicrystals” is published in Physical Review Letters Categories News Author chmadmin Read the full paper: here We study a continuum of photonic quasicrystal heterostructures derived from local isomorphism (LI) classes of pentagonal quasicrystal tilings. These tilings are obtained by direct projection from a five-dimensional hypercubic lattice. We demonstrate that, with the sole exception of the Penrose LI class, all other LI classes result in degenerate, effectively … Continue Reading “Light Localization in Local Isomorphism Classes of Quasicrystals” is published in Physical Review Letters
