Abstract

Topological Polaritonic Metamaterials In their Research Article (10.1002/sstr.202500328), Sriram Guddala, Alexander B. Khanikaev, and co-workers demonstrate a monolithic topological polaritonic insulator using bulk WS2, offering excellent optical confinement and strong light-matter interactions. Unlike other systems, this all-van der Waals platform offers reduced losses at cryogenic temperatures and shows promise as an alternative platform for quantum polaritonic technologies.
