Article Citation - WoS: 84Citation - Scopus: 82Topological Engineering of Terahertz Light Using Electrically Tunable Exceptional Point Singularities(American Association for the Advancement of Science, 2022) Ergöktaş, M. Said; Soleymani, Sina; Kakenov, Nurbek; Wang, Kaiyuan; Smith, Thomas B.; Bakan, Gökhan; Balcı, Sinan; Principi, Alessandro; Novoselov, Kostya S.; Özdemir, Şahin K.; Kocabaş, ÇoşkunThe topological structure associated with the branch point singularity around an exceptional point (EP) can provide tools for controlling the propagation of light. Through use of graphene-based devices, we demonstrate the emergence of EPs in an electrically controlled interaction between light and a collection of organic molecules in the terahertz regime at room temperature. We show that the intensity and phase of terahertz pulses can be controlled by a gate voltage, which drives the device across the EP. Our electrically tunable system allows reconstruction of the Riemann surface associated with the complex energy landscape and provides topological control of light by tuning the loss imbalance and frequency detuning of interacting modes. Our approach provides a platform for developing topological optoelectronics and studying the manifestations of EP physics in light-matter interactions.Article Citation - WoS: 8Citation - Scopus: 9Optimization of the Algal Species Chlorella Miniata Growth: Mathematical Modelling and Evaluation of Temperature and Light Intensity Effects(Elsevier, 2022) Sözmen, Alper Baran; Ata, Ayça; Övez, BikemGrowth of Chlorella miniata, a green microalga was investigated during this study under various temperature and light intensity values with the purpose of determining growth rate changes of the microalgae with cultivation parameters, experiments were carried out using airlift photobioreactors with a study volume of 6 L. Culturing conditions were between 66 and 385 μmol photon m−2 s−1 and between 14 and 30 °C for light intensity and ambient temperature, respectively. Acquired data were then used to test various mathematical models for coherency with experimental results. Aiba Model for light intensity and Skewed Normal Distribution Model for temperature parameters performed superior compared to the rest of the mathematical models used during the study. Utilizing both mathematical models a novel model was deduced to express effects of both light intensity and temperature parameters in combination on algal growth. Then the developed model was used to calculate the optimum growth condition of the species. The proposed mathematical model showed good coherency with experimental data and an average relative error of 1.97% for both temperature and light intensity effects on algal growth. The theoretical optimum temperature and light intensity for the maximum specific growth rate were calculated to be 22.43 °C and 291.5 μmol photon m−2 s−1 respectively.
