Boosting Sensing Performance through Near-Field Engineering in Low-Q Metasurfaces

José Antonio Álvarez-Sanchis, Luis Manuel Máñez-Espina, Teresa Mengual Chuliá +2

Dielectric metasurfaces have introduced a new paradigm for substance detection by exploiting their resonant properties to enhance light-matter interaction. This enhancement can be…

Strong Mode Coupling via Quasi-Bound States in the Continuum in Bianisotropic Metasurfaces

Luis Manuel Máñez-Espina, Bahman Amrahi, Viktar Asadchy +1

Electromagnetic mode coupling plays a key role in many resonant effects in nanophotonics. This coupling is also responsible for the appearance of bianisotropy, where electric and m…

Giant bias-free nonreciprocity for unpolarized light via synthetic motion

L. M. Máñez-Espina, B. Amrahi, I. Faniayeu +4

Reciprocity breaking at optical frequencies typically relies on bulky magnets, dynamic modulation, or nonlinearities, all of which hinder chip-scale integration and the handling of…

Control of the local and nonlocal electromagnetic response in all-dielectric reconfigurable metasurfaces

Luis Manuel Máñez-Espina, Ana Díaz-Rubio

Reconfigurable metasurfaces are potent platforms to control the propagation properties of light dynamically. Among different reconfiguration mechanisms available at optical frequen…

Broadband transparent Huygens' spaceplates

Francisco J. Díaz-Fernández, Luis Manuel Máñez-Espina, Ana Díaz-Rubio +1

Spaceplates have emerged in the context of nonlocal metasurfaces, enabling the compression of optical systems by minimizing the required empty space between their components. In th…
