Metasurfaces, a two-dimensional (2D) form of metamaterials constituted by planar meta-
atoms, exhibit exotic abilities to tailor electromagnetic (EM) waves freely. Over the past …

Biosensors have been designed and developed for detecting biomarkers, biomolecules,
proteins, enzymes, organisms, and various types of bacterial and viral diseases since the …

Manipulating the properties of the isofrequency contours (IFCs) of materials provides a
powerful means of controlling the interaction between light and matter. Hyperbolic …

Optical communications, laser science, microscopy and metrology demand control of light
polarization, which is also used as a probe of chemical and biological systems. Typically …

All-optical control of plasmons can enable optical switches with high speeds, small footprints
and high on/off ratios. Here we demonstrate ultrafast plasmon modulation in the near …

Electromagnetic metamaterials (MMs) and metasurfaces (MSs) are artificial media and
surfaces with subwavelength separations of meta-atoms designed for anomalous …

Conspectus Plasmonic nanostructures were initially developed for sensing and
nanophotonic applications but, recently, have shown great promise in chemistry …

A hyperbolic material (HM) is an optical material that exhibits a unique property of having
anisotropy with simultaneously different signs of the permittivity tensor components. Such a …

Photoluminescence including fluorescence plays a great role in a wide variety of
applications from biomedical sensing and imaging to optoelectronics. Therefore, the …

Hybrid nanomaterials are molecular or colloidal‐level combinations of organic and
inorganic materials, or otherwise strongly dissimilar materials. They are often, though not …
