I will discuss how temporal modulations of the optical parameters offer new pathways in light control, as energy is not necessarily conserved in these time-dependent systems, and non-reciprocal effects can be realized [1]. I will concentrate on a class of space-time modulations where parameters are modulated in a travelling-wave form, such that there is an apparent motion of the optical properties, and discuss light propagation in these systems: from non-reciprocal effects even in the quasistatic limit, to synthetic motion and the link to the Fresnel drag effect of light in moving media, through an unconventional linear gain mechanism.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">Next, I will discuss photon pair creation and squeezing in a photonic time crystal, the temporal counterpart of a conventional photonic crystal. I will show how modulating the refractive index in time causes dynamical Casimir processes, in which pairs of photons can be created. However, when there are multiple time interfaces, these photon pair creation phenomena depend dramatically on the photon\u2019s wavelength, as well as on the contrast between the refractive indices, the duration of each temporal period and the number of periods that form the photonic time crystal [2].<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u00a0References:<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">[1] Galiffi, E., Tirole, R., Yin, S., Lia, H., Vezzoli, S., Huidobro, P.A., Silveirinha, M.G., Sapienza, R., Alu, A., and Pendry, J.B. \u201cPhotonics of time varying media\u201d Advanced Photonics, 4(1), 014002 (2022)<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">[2] Echave, J., Garc\u00eda-Vidal, F.J., &amp;\u00a0 Huidobro, P.A., \u201cPhoton squeezing in time varying media\u201d, to be submitted (2024)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Paloma A.
