An Article by ITMO University Researchers Is Among The Top-20 Optics and Photonics Papers
…authors of the article, researcher at Chair of Nanophotonics and Metamaterials. “For example, we have a chip equipped with two sources of electromagnetic waves. If a distance between them is shorter than a wave length they will disturb each other. So one cannot develop smaller and smaller structures. The technology of topologically protected states can solve this pro…

A New Application of Well-Known Phenomena
…ide to the microresonator and vice versa. The waveguide also has two reflectors that provoke one more resonator with a low Q-factor. According to the experiment, the distance between reflectors affects the lifetime of photons in the microresonator. It is the Purcell effect applied for massless particles. Besides, Lamb shift is demonstrated with one distinction: inste…
