Our paper is out in @NaturePhysics! nature.com/articles/s4156…
Incredibly grateful for our amazing team at FloQuET Lab and my brilliant advisor @DuttAvik 😁😁
More to come (join us at #APSMarch next week!)

Nature Physics - Although dissipation is often detrimental to the observation of topological effects, a photonic molecule driven at several incommensurate frequencies is shown to be a candidate...

It's that time of the year again! #CLEO24 #Photonics

Avik Dutt @DuttAvik May 3, 2024

The FloQuET lab has an exciting week ahead at @CLEOConf! Frank @YichenShen17 and @DhruvSrinivasan will be presenting experimental research results (May 8). I will be on a Quantum Sensing & Metrology panel with @SinhaUrbasi and @RichardZeltner (May 9). @ClarkSchool @UMDscience!

Conference talk count - 2

We can now measure topological invariants in synthetic frequency lattices *at steady state*!! Whether you’re a condensed matter connoisseur, a photonics fanatic, or just a big physics nerd, this talk’s for you🙃
