Optical skyrmions have recently been constructed by tailoring electric or spin field distributions through the interference of multiple surface plasmon polaritons, offering promising features for advanced information processing, transport and storage. Here, we construct topologically robust plasmonic skyrmions in a wisely tailored space-coiling meta-structure supporting magnetic localized spoof plasmons (LSPs), which are strongly squeezed down to {lambda}3/106 and do not require stringent external interference conditions. By directly measuring the spatial profile of all three vectorial magnetic fields, we reveal multiple {pi}-twist target skyrmion configurations mapped to multi-resonant near-equidistant LSP eigen-modes. The real-space topological robustness of these skyrmion configurations is confirmed by arbitrary deformations of the meta-structure, demonstrating flexible skyrmionic textures with arbitrary shapes. The observed magnetic LSP skyrmions pave the way to ultra-compact and topologically robust plasmonic devices, such as flexible sensors, wearable electronics and ultra-compact antennas.

Localized surface plasmons (LSPs) have played a significant role in improving the light emission efficiency of light emitting diodes (LEDs). In this report, polygonal nanoholes have been fabricated in the p-GaN layer of InGaN-based LEDs by using Ni n anoporous film as the etching mask, and then Au/Al metal nanoparticles are embedded in the nanoholes to form the LSP structure. The coupling between the LSP and the LED has been clearly observed. The results show that the light output of the LEDs has been increased by 46% at higher current injection condition, and together with a shift of the gain peak position to the LSP peak resonance energy. As the coupling distance is decreased from 60 nm to 30 nm, the maximum enhancement factor increases to 2.38. The above results indicate that the LSP from the polygonal metal nanoparticles is a kind of very promising structure to enhance the lighting performance of the InGaN-based LEDs.

Improvements in computing performance have significantly slowed down over the past few years owing to the intrinsic limitations of computing hardware. However, the demand for data computing has increased exponentially. To solve this problem, tremendo us attention has been focused on the continuous scaling of Moores Law as well as the advanced non-von Neumann computing architecture. A rich variety of unconventional computing paradigms has been raised with the rapid development of nanoscale devices. Magnetic skyrmions, spin swirling quasiparticles, have been endowed with great expectations for unconventional computing due to their potential as the smallest information carriers by exploiting their physics and dynamics. In this paper, we provide an overview of the recent progress of skyrmion-based unconventional computing from a joint device-application perspective. This paper aims to build up a panoramic picture, analyze the remaining challenges, and most importantly to shed light on the outlook of skyrmion based unconventional computing for interdisciplinary researchers.
Quantized Skyrmions with baryon numbers $B=1,2$ and 4 are considered and angularly localized wavefunctions for them are found. By combining a few low angular momentum states, one can construct a quantum state whose spatial density is close to that of the classical Skyrmion, and has the same symmetries. For the B=1 case we find the best localized wavefunction among linear combinations of $j=1/2$ and $j=3/2$ angular momentum states. For B=2, we find that the $j=1$ ground state has toroidal symmetry and a somewhat reduced localization compared to the classical solution. For B=4, where the classical Skyrmion has cubic symmetry, we construct cubically symmetric quantum states by combining the $j=0$ ground state with the lowest rotationally excited $j=4$ state. We use the rational map approximation to compare the classical and quantum baryon densities in the B=2 and B=4 cases.

Electronic transport in low dimensions through a disordered medium leads to localization. The addition of gauge fields to disordered media leads to fundamental changes in the transport properties. For example, chiral edge states can emerge in two-dim ensional systems with a perpendicular magnetic field. Here, we implement a synthetic gauge field for photons using silicon-on-insulator technology. By determining the distribution of transport properties, we confirm the localized transport in the bulk and the suppression of localization in edge states, using the gold standard for localization studies. Our system provides a new platform to investigate transport properties in the presence of synthetic gauge fields, which is important both from the fundamental perspective of studying photonic transport and for applications in classical and quantum information processing.
Most recently, two remarkable papers [New J. Phys. 21, 113004 (2019); IEEE J. Sel. Top. Quantum Electron 27, 1 (2020)] propose broadband complete transfer terahertz (THz) surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) waveguide coupler by applying coherent quantu m control -- Stimulated Raman adiabatic passage (STIRAP). However, previous researches request three SPPs waveguides coupler. In this paper, we propose a new design of a broadband complete transfer THz SPPs coupler with an innovative structure of two waveguides by employing two state adiabatic following. In order to realize this design, we introduce the detuning parameter into the coupling equation of SPPs waveguides for the first time. We believe that this finding will improve the THz communication domain.
