Many-mode grating couplers by avoiding undesired couplings

Nazar Pyvovar, Hao Li, Zhaowei Dai, Owen D. Miller ยท 2026

To couple many independent modes from free space to on chip, the key challenge is not enhancing the many necessary coupling rates (scattering-matrix elements) between targeted mode pairs. Instead, theโ€ฆ

A No-Cloning Trade-off Between Black Hole No-Hair and Horizon Smoothness

Sudhanva Joshi, Sunil Kumar Mishra ยท 2026

The black hole no-hair theorem is traditionally derived from the uniqueness theorems of general relativity. We show that a quantitative form follows from unitarity together with the standard semiclassโ€ฆ
