Ultrafast Third-Harmonic Spectral Modulation and Self-Action in Resonant Nonlocal Metasurfaces

Alfonso Nardi, Sonia Freddi, Michael Scalora +8

Quasi-bound states in the continuum enable exceptional field confinement, strongly reducing the pump intensity threshold for nonlinear light-matter interaction in dielectric metasu…

Second-Harmonic Generation at a Fourth-Order Exceptional Point Degeneracy

Albert Herrero-Parareda, Domenico de Ceglia, Maria Antonietta Vincenti +3

An anomalous flat-band dispersion provided by a degenerate band edge (DBE) of longitudinal optical modes in a double-grating waveguide is used to enhance second-harmonic generation…
