Passive daytime radiative cooling (PDRC) dissipates terrestrial heat to the extremely cold
outer space without using any energy input or producing pollution. It has the potential to …

In the past centuries, the scale of engineering optics has evolved toward two opposite
directions: one is represented by giant telescopes with apertures larger than tens of meters …

We introduce the refractiveindex. info database, a comprehensive open-source repository
containing optical constants for a wide array of materials, and describe in detail the …

Symmetric spin–orbit interaction (SOI)‐based approaches apply a practical limit on helicity
multiplexed metaoptics, ie, center symmetric information encoding. Contrarily, asymmetric …

Recent introduction of data-driven approaches based on deep-learning technology has
revolutionized the field of nanophotonics by allowing efficient inverse design methods. In …

Polarization, a fundamental property of light, has been widely exploited from quantum
physics to high-dimensional optics. Materials with intrinsic optical anisotropy, such as …

High-index dielectric nanostructures can support optical resonances of electric and
magnetic character with ultralow linear absorption. In contrast to plasmonics, they can be …

Wavelength-selective thermal emitters (WS-TEs) have been frequently designed to achieve
desired target emissivity spectra, as a typical emissivity engineering, for broad applications …

Metalenses have shown great promise in their ability to function as ultracompact optical
systems for focusing and imaging. Remarkably, several designs have been recently …

We theoretically investigate the sensing performance of one-dimensional photonic crystal
(PC) based sensor for the detection of blood plasma and cancer cells. The sensor consists …
