Rewritable Chirality of Metasurfaces with Permittivity-Asymmetric Flatband Quasi-Bound States in the Continuum

Tao Jiang, Haiyang Hu, Dmytro Gryb +4

Flatband eigenstates are widely applied to enhance angle-robust light-matter interactions in metaphotonics. However, controlling the polarization of flatbands remains challenging,…

Extreme light confinement mediated by the transverse Kerker effect

Sergei Gladyshev, Connor Heimig, Adrià Canós Valero +7

Dielectric nanoparticles can be engineered to scatter light predominantly in the transverse direction, a phenomenon known as the transverse Kerker effect. Although complete cancela…

Integration of 2D Materials in Radial van der Waals Heterostructure Metasurfaces

Connor Heimig, Jonas Biechteler, Cristina Cruciano +12

Two-dimensional semiconductors, such as monolayer transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDC), exhibit strong excitonic transitions at room temperature and offer a unique platform for…

Chiral Nonlinear Polaritonics with van der Waals Metasurfaces

Connor Heimig, Alexander A. Antonov, Dmytro Gryb +10

In the strong-coupling regime, the interaction between light and matter reaches a hybridization state where the photonic and material components are inseparably linked. Using tailo…

Fabrication Optimization of van der Waals Metasurfaces: Inverse Patterning Boosts Resonance Quality Factor

Jonas Biechteler, Connor Heimig, Thomas Weber +5

Van der Waals (vdW) materials have garnered growing interest for use as nanophotonic building blocks that offer precise control over light-matter interaction at the nanoscale, such…
