Breaking the Mirror Symmetry of Spontaneous Emission Via Spin-orbit Interaction of Light

Open Access Open Access

Abstract

Light with strong intensity gradients at the wavelength scale exhibits a significant polarization component along its direction of propagation. The interaction of quantum emitters with such light fields leads to new and surprising effects.
