Many-body physics aims to understand emergent properties of systems made of many
interacting objects. This review examines recent progress on the topic of radiative heat …

Photonic devices play an increasingly important role in advancing physics and engineering.
Although improvements in nanofabrication and computational methods have driven …

Coherent interconversion of signals between optical and mechanical domains is enabled by
optomechanical interactions. Extreme light-matter coupling produced by confining light to …

We use inverse design to discover metalens structures that exhibit broadband, achromatic
focusing across low, moderate, and high numerical apertures. We show that standard unit …

Single-photon nanoantennas are broadband strongly scattering nanostructures placed in
the near field of a single quantum emitter, with the goal to enhance the coupling between the …

Based on an analytic approach, we present a theoretical review on the absorption,
scattering, and extinction of both dipole scatterers and regular arrays composed of such …

The field of metamaterials has opened landscapes of possibilities in basic science, and a
paradigm shift in the way we think about and design emergent material properties. In many …

When impinging on optical structures or passing in their vicinity, free electrons can
spontaneously emit electromagnetic radiation, a phenomenon generally known as …

This paper presents a comprehensive review of the literature and trends on the design of
periodic microstructural composite materials including photonic crystals (PtCs), phononic …

Free-electron radiation such as Cerenkov, Smith–Purcell and transition radiation, can be
greatly affected by structured optical environments, as has been demonstrated in a variety of …
