Geometric Similarities and Topological Phases in Surface Magnon Polaritons.

Abstract

Surface polaritons have proven to be uniquely capable of controlling light-matter interactions. Here we explore surface magnon polaritons in low-loss ferrimagnetic semiconductors, with a focus on their topological phases. We propose several surface magnon polariton devices, including microwave resonators that can strongly enhance magnetic fields and low-loss interconnects joining waveguides with vastly different impedances. Our work can facilitate the exploration of topological phases in polaritons and the development of topological microwave devices for quantum sensing and information processing.
