Experimental simulation of solid-state phenomena using photonic lattices
The propagation of light waves across a periodic array of evanescently coupled optical waveguides can be described by a Schr¨odinger-like equation for a particle in a periodic potential. This mapping allows us to investigate the dynamics of electrons in a crystalline solid using an artificial crysta...
