Observation of mechanical bound states in the continuum
Phonon trapping has raised widespread attention among researchers for its potential of various applications, such as microwave signal processing, interferometric gravitational wave detection and quantum mechanical oscillators. A common way to realize phonon trapping is through suspended structures …

Novel electromagnetic scattering phenomena
Scattering of electromagnetic waves is fundamentally related to the inhomogeneity of a system. This thesis focuses on several theoretical and experimental findings of electromagnetic scattering under contemporary context. These results vary from scattering off real structures and off synthetic …

Optical bound states in the radiation continuum : from topological charges to light-emission applications
Bound states in the continuum (BICs) are unusual solutions of wave equations describing light or matter: they are discrete and spatially bounded, but exist at the same energy as a continuum of states which propagate to infinity. In this thesis, we will explore optical BICs from different …

Engineering the couplings to the continuum : controlling the fundamental properties of radiation and enabling forbidden light-matter
In this thesis, I consider the general question: what new dynamics can be realized by engineering the coupling between a discrete state and a continuum of states? In the first part of the thesis, we choose bound states in the continuum (BICs) as our starting point for answering this question. We …
