Observation of photonic spin-momentum locking due to coupling of achiral metamaterials and quantum dots
read the original abstract
Here, we report observations of photonic spin-momentum locking in the form of directional and chiral emission from achiral quantum dots (QDs) evanescently coupled to achiral hyperbolic metamaterials (HMM). Efficient coupling between QDs and the metamaterial leads to emergence of these photonic topological modes which can be detected in the far field. We provide theoretical explanation for the emergence of spin-momentum locking through rigorous modeling based on photon Green's function where pseudo spin of light arises from coupling of QDs to evanescent modes of HMM.
