Topological photonics

The application of topology, the mathematics of conserved properties under continuous deformations, is creating a range of new opportunities throughout photonics. This field was inspired by the discovery of topological insulators, in which interfacial electrons transport without dissipation, even in the presence of impurities. Similarly, the use of carefully designed wavevector-space topologies allows the creation of interfaces that support new states of light with useful and interesting properties. In particular, this suggests unidirectional waveguides that allow light to flow around large imperfections without back-reflection. This Review explains here the underlying principles and highlights how topological effects can be realized in photonic crystals, coupled resonators, metamaterials and quasicrystals.

Printed Anodes and Internal Light Extraction Layers on Flexible Glass to Create Cost Effective and High Efficacy Bendable OLED Lighting Panels

In this project, OLEDWorks developed a high efficacy and cost-effective flexible OLED lighting system which could reduce the cost of OLED light by introducing a combination of printable and scalable scattering type internal light extraction (ILE) and transparent conductive silver nanowire technologies that are compatible with roll-to-roll (R2R) processing methods. High efficacy was achieved by co-optimization of the internal light extraction, silver nanowire and ITO anodes, and stacked white OLED structure to reduce unwanted absorption, increase the outcoupling efficiency, and lower the OLED voltage. At the end of Phase I of this project a power efficacy of 90 lm/W was demonstrated in a flexible OLED lighting device based on ultrathin bendable glass. Without much additional work, the milestone of 100 lm/W is certainly within reach, and with further work on light extraction and white OLED materials, we believe 120 lm/W or higher is achievable within the next few years.

BTO Market Success Report 2015–2020

This report highlights 28 BTO-supported, technology-oriented research and development (R&D) projects that resulted in the launch of a commercial product, focusing on identifying new technologies or commercialization updates between 2015 and 2020, where the product remained on the market as of March 2021. The report also includes a listing of the full 45 commercial products supported by BTO as well as a listing of 101 lighting components that benefited from BTO support and were commercialized and integrated into finished lighting products during the same timeframe.

Conformal solids and holography

We argue that a SO( d ) magnetic monopole in an asymptotically AdS space-time is dual to a d -dimensional strongly coupled system in a solid state. In light of this, it would be remiss of us not to dub such a field configuration solidon . In the presence of mixed boundary conditions, a solidon spontaneously breaks translations (among many other symmetries) and gives rise to Goldstone excitations on the boundary — the phonons of the solid. We derive the quadratic action for the boundary phonons in the probe limit and show that, when the mixed boundary conditions preserve conformal symmetry, the longitudinal and transverse sound speeds are related to each other as expected from effective field theory arguments. We then include backreaction and calculate the free energy of the solidon for a particular choice of mixed boundary conditions, corresponding to a relevant multi-trace deformation of the boundary theory. We find such free energy to be lower than that of thermal AdS. This suggests that our solidon undergoes a solid-to-liquid first order phase transition by melting into a Schwarzschild-AdS black hole as the temperature is raised.

Connected Lighting System Interoperability Study Part 1: Application Programming Interfaces

First in a series of studies that focuses on interoperability as realized by the use of Application Programming Interfaces (APIs), explores the diversity of such interfaces in several connected lighting systems; characterizes the extent of interoperability that they provide; and illustrates challenges, limitations, and tradeoffs that were encountered during this exploration.
