Reflection by two level system: phase singularities on the Poincaré hypersphere (2023)
Journal Article
Lang, B., Harbord, E., & Oulton, R. (2023). Reflection by two level system: phase singularities on the Poincaré hypersphere. Journal of Optics, 25(12), Article 125403. https://doi.org/10.1088/2040-8986/ad065a

We consider the reflection of a photon by a two-level system in a quasi-one-dimensional waveguide. The waveguide polarisation at the location of the two-level system and the transition dipole are key determinants of the physics, controlling of the ph...
