Photonic Zitterbewegung: Relativistic physics in waveguide arrays

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

We report on the observation of relativistic wave evolution in a waveguide array. The high frequency trembling motion, known as Zitterbewegung is observed in specially designed waveguide arrays.
