Abstract
In this talk, I discuss our recent research efforts on some new classes of time-varying metamaterial platforms, with a particular focus on (i) non-Hermitian time-varying media, and their application for broadband perfect absorption and one-way light propagation; (ii) drift-biased materials emulating moving media, which enable breaking temporal symmetries without the need for magneto-optical effects or complicated space-time modulations; and (iii) quantum electrodynamic effects in the presence of time-modulated electromagnetic environments. Our findings highlight the many opportunities offered by advanced time-varying platforms in electromagnetics and photonics.
