Publication Open Access New thermal emission effects in temporal metamaterials(IEEE, 2025-03-20) Vázquez Lozano, Juan Enrique; Liberal Olleta, Íñigo; Ingeniería Eléctrica, Electrónica y de Comunicación; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa, Elektronikoa eta Telekomunikazio Ingeniaritza; Institute of Smart Cities - ISCSo far, most of the developments on thermal radiation, essentially aimed at enhancing the control of its propagation and spectral properties, have mainly been based on the use of photonic nanostructures. Within this context, a new emerging field of research are temporal metamaterials. Given the realized successes of this new paradigm, and the manifest parallelism between the areas of photonics and thermal emission, it seems reasonable to think that temporal metamaterials could also revolutionize the field of thermal radiation, both at fundamental and applied levels. However, such an approach, merging thermal emission and time-varying media, has remained quite elusive, and the underlying physics has scarcely been explored as yet. Hence, in this work, we put forward a quantum theoretical framework that sets a rigorous basis to address thermal emission in time-modulated materials. Upon this ground, we unveil new physics, showing the occurrence of non-local correlations, the potential of temporal metamaterials to radiate outside the black-body spectrum, as well as the existence of quantum vacuum amplification effects at finite temperature. Finally, we show how these features may lead to novel thermal emission effects as well as the conception of innovative thermal emitters dual to spatial gratings.Publication Open Access Thermal emission in temporal metamaterials: fundamentals and novel phenomena(IEEE, 2023) Vázquez Lozano, Juan Enrique; Liberal Olleta, Íñigo; Ingeniería Eléctrica, Electrónica y de Comunicación; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa, Elektronikoa eta Telekomunikazio Ingeniaritza; Institute of Smart Cities - ISCThermal emission is a fundamental issue that customarily has been fueled by the developments carried out in nanophotonics. Given such a parallelism and the latest advances bringing forward the realization of temporal metamaterials, in this work we combine both topics to sketch out an original theoretical formulation for rigorously addressing thermal emission in time-modulated media. Upon this ground, we find new physics and thermal phenomena, highlighting the emergence of non-local correlations, the possibility to overcome the black-body spectrum by temporal means, as well as the role of ENZ bodies as genuine platforms to enhance thermal emission, and the conception of innovative thermal emitters dual to spatial gratings.Publication Open Access Symmetries in time-varying media: on the conservation of spin angular momentum, helicity, and chirality(IEEE, 2024) Mohammadi Jajin, Mohsen; Vázquez Lozano, Juan Enrique; Liberal Olleta, Íñigo; Ingeniería Eléctrica, Electrónica y de Comunicación; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa, Elektronikoa eta Telekomunikazio Ingeniaritza; Institute of Smart Cities - ISCOur results demonstrate that time-varying media exacerbate the differences between the symmetries and conserved quantities associated with dynamical properties associated with the circular polarization of light. In this manner, we provide further insights into the physical meaning of helicity and chirality, including their similarities and differences, as well as the fundamental role played by the symmetries of the electromagnetic Lagrangian in time-varying media.
