This surface preparation very similar to what Piantelli does to the surface of his nickel bars.
Polaritons will be localized in a vortex by either cavities or bumps or both. This is called Anderson localization. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anderson_localization On Thu, Mar 27, 2014 at 1:15 PM, David Roberson <[email protected]> wrote: > Thanks Jed.
