Usually, magnets don’t affect light: if you bring a laser beam close to a strong magnet, nothing happens. But at Penn State, researchers have nanofabricated photonic crystals that make light "feel" the effects of artificial magnetic fields. This could provide a way to increase the strength of interaction between light and matter, eventually leading to smaller lasers and other improved photonic technologies.
Dr. Mikael Rechtsman is a professor of physics at Penn State and recipient of the 2024 Faculty Scholar Medal for Outstanding Achievement. Established in 1980, the award recognizes scholarly or creative excellence represented by a single contribution or a series of contributions around a coherent theme. A committee reviews nominations and selects candidates.He has also earned the ICO prize of the international commission for optics, the Packard fellowship, the Sloan fellowship, and the Office of Naval Research young investigator award, among additional recognitions. He is a Clarivate Analytics highly cited researcher. He is best known as a pioneer of the field of topological photonics.
