Strong coupling of collective optical resonances in dielectric metasurfaces
Izzatjon Allayarov, Vittorio Aita, Diane J. Roth +5
Dielectric metasurfaces can achieve strong light-matter interaction based on several types of collective (nonlocal) resonances, such as surface lattice resonances (SLRs) and quasi…
Meso-chiral optical properties of plasmonic nanoparticles: uncovering hidden chirality
Yuanyang Xie, Alexey V. Krasavin, Anatoly V. Zayats
Molecular chirality plays an important role in chemistry and biology, allows control of biological interactions, affects drugs efficacy and safety, and promotes synthesis of new ma…
Roadmap on Nonlocality in Photonic Materials and Metamaterials
Francesco Monticone, N. Asger Mortensen, Antonio I. Fernández-DomÃnguez +63
Photonic technologies continue to drive the quest for new optical materials with unprecedented responses. A major frontier in this field is the exploration of nonlocal (spatially d…
Polarisation conversion and optical meron topologies in anisotropic epsilon-near-zero metamaterials
Vittorio Aita, Anastasiia Zaleska, Henry J. Putley +1
Plasmonic metamaterials provide a flexible platform for light manipulation and polarisation management, thanks to their engineered optical properties with exotic dispersion regimes…
Generating optical angular momentum through wavefront curvature
Kayn A. Forbes, Vittorio Aita, Anatoly V. Zayats
Recent developments in the understanding of optical angular momentum have resulted in many demonstrations of unusual optical phenomena, such as optical beams with orbital angular m…
The 2024 Active Metamaterials Roadmap
Simon A. Pope, Diane J. Roth, Aakash Bansal +27
Active metamaterials are engineered structures that possess novel properties that can be changed after the point of manufacture. Their novel properties arise predominantly from the…
