        报告题目:Photonic properties in quantum-classical hybrid systems
        摘要:Recently, research on photonic properties in quantum-classical hybrid systems becomes quite interesting both in fundamental research and application. In the presentation, I will introduce a couple of examples to show how such hybrid systems break our traditional knowledge. 
        At first, the magneto-optical effect breaks time-reversal symmetry, a unique property that makes it indispensable in nonreciprocal optics and topological photonics. Unfortunately, all natural materials have a rather weak magneto-optical response in the optical frequency range, posing a significant challenge to the practical application of many emerging device concepts. Here we theoretically propose a composite material system that exhibits an intrinsic magneto-optical response orders of magnitude stronger than most magneto-optical materials used today. This is achieved by tailoring the resonant interplay between the quantum electrodynamics of electronic transitions in two-level systems and the classical electromagnetic response of local plasmon resonance. 
        Second, superradiance is a phenomenon due to collective spontaneous radiation in a system with multiple emitters and it only emerges if the emitter distance is much less than the wavelength in free space. However, such a subwavelength condition may be broken if putting these emitters in specific photonic crystals.
