Chiral exceptional point enhanced active tuning and nonreciprocity in micro-resonators by Hwaseob Lee, Lorry Chang, Ali Kecebas, Dun Mao, Yahui Xiao, Tiantian Li, Andrea Alù, Sahin K. Özdemir, Tingyi Gu

“…A specific type of EPs known as chiral EPs has recently attracted much attention for controlling the flow of light and for building sensors with better responsivity. A recently demonstrated route to chiral EPs via lithographically defined symmetric Mie scatterers on the rim of resonators has not only provided the much-needed mechanical stability for studying chiral EPs, but also helped reduce losses originating from nanofabrication imperfections, facilitating the in-situ study of chiral EPs and their contribution to the dynamics and tunability of resonators. …”

Assessment of Functionals for First-Principle Studies of the Structural and Electronic Properties of δ-Bi2O3 by D. H. Galván, R. Núñez-González, R. Rangel, P. Alemany, A. Posada-Amarillas

“…Fully relativistic full-potential density functional calculations with an all-electron linearized augmented plane waves plus local orbitals method were carried out to perform a comparative study on the structural and electronic properties of the cubic oxide δ-Bi2O3 phase, which is considered as one of the most promising materials in a variety of applications including fuel cells, sensors, and catalysts. Three different density functionals were used in our calculations, LDA, the GGA scheme in the parametrization of Perdew, Burke, and Ernzerhof (PBE96), and the hybrid scheme of Perdew-Wang B3PW91. …”
