We show that under certain conditions one-dimensional dielectric lattice possesses total omnidirectional reflection of incident light. The predictions are verified experimentally using Na3AlF6/ZnSe multilayer structure developed by means of standard optical technology. The structure was found to exhibit reflection coefficient more then 99% in the range of incident angles 0-86 (degree) at the wavelength of 632.8 nm for s-polarization. The results are believed to stimulate new experiments on photonic crystals and controlled spontaneous emission.

A remarkable property of one-dimensional all-dielectric periodic structures has recently been reported, namely a one-dimensional lattice can totally reflect electromagnetic wave of any polarization at all angles within a prescribed frequency region. Unlike their metallic counterpart, such all-dielectric omnidirectional mirrors are nearly free of loss at optical frequencies. Here we discuss the physics, design criteria and applications of the thin-film all-dielectric omnidirectional mirror. The experimental demonstration of the mirror is presented at optical frequencies.
It is shown that total reflection for all incident angles does not require a two- or three-dimensional photonic crystal. We demonstrate that a one-dimensional photonic crystal can exhibit total omni-directional reflection for any incident wave within some frequency region. The formation of the omni-directional gap is discussed and a wide range of realistic fabrication parameters is proposed.

We consider a one-dimensional model allowing analytical derivation of the effective interactions between two charged colloids. We evaluate exactly the partition function for an electroneutral salt-free suspension with dielectric jumps at the colloids position. We derive a contact relation with the pressure that shows there is like-charge attraction, whether or not the counterions are confined between the colloids. In contrast to the homogeneous dielectric case, there is the possibility for the colloids to attract despite the number of counter-ions ($N$) being even. The results are shown to recover the mean-field prediction in the limit $Nto infty$.
The Luttinger liquid (LL) model of one-dimensional (1D) electronic systems provides a powerful tool for understanding strongly correlated physics including phenomena such as spin-charge separation. Substantial theoretical efforts have attempted to ex tend the LL phenomenology to two dimensions (2D), especially in models of closely packed perfect arrays of 1D quantum wires, each being described as a LL. For instance, such coupled-wire models have been successfully used to construct 2D anisotropic non-Fermi liquids, various quantum Hall states, topological phases, and quantum spin liquids. Despite these exciting theoretical developments, an experimental demonstration of high-quality arrays of 1D LLs suitable for realizing these models remains absent. Here we report the experimental realization of 2D arrays of 1D LLs with crystalline quality in a moire superlattice made of twisted bilayer tungsten ditelluride (tWTe$_{2}$). Originating from the anisotropic lattice of the monolayer, the moire pattern of tWTe$_{2}$ hosts identical, parallel 1D electronic channels, separated by a fixed nanoscale distance, which is tunable by the twist angle between layers. At a twist angle of ~ 5 degrees, we find that hole-doped tWTe$_{2}$ exhibits exceptionally large transport anisotropy with a resistance ratio of ~ 1000 between two orthogonal in-plane directions, suggesting the formation of 1D channels. The conductance measurement reveals a power-law scaling behavior, consistent with the formation of a 2D anisotropic phase that resembles an array of LLs. Our results open the door for realizing a variety of 2D correlated and topological quantum phases based on coupled-wire models and LL physics.
In situ observation of precipitation or phase separation induced by solvent addition is important in studying its dynamics. Combined with optical and fluorescence microscopy, microfluidic devices have been leveraged in studying the phase separation i n various materials including biominerals, nanoparticles, and inorganic crystals. However, strong scattering from the subphases in the mixture is problematic for in situ study of phase separation with high temporal and spatial resolution. In this work, we present a quasi-2D microfluidic device combined with total internal reflection microscopy as an approach for in situ observation of phase separation. The quasi-2D microfluidic device comprises of a shallow main channel and a deep side channel. Mixing between a solution in the main channel (solution A) and another solution (solution B) in the side channel is predominantly driven by diffusion due to high fluid resistance from the shallow height of the main channel, which is confirmed using fluorescence microscopy. Moreover, relying on diffusive mixing, we can control the composition of the mixture in the main channel by tuning the composition of solution B. We demonstrate the application of our method for in situ observation of asphaltene precipitation and beta-alanine crystallization.
