Bound states in the continuum (BICs) have attracted attention in photonics owing to their
interesting properties. For example, BICs can effectively confine light in a counterintuitive …

Over the years, researchers have been exploring ways to artificially design chiral structures
and materials, namely metamaterials and metasurfaces. They exhibit unique optical …

This paper reports the results of a field experiment investigating how attributes of carbon
footprint information affect consumer choice in a large dining facility. Our hypotheses and …

Bound states in the continuum (BICs) are counterintuitive localized states with eigenvalues
embedded in the continuum of extended states. Recently, nontrivial band topology is …

All-dielectric metasurfaces have been intensively researched as a low-loss, flat-optics
platform for the advanced manipulation of electromagnetic wave propagation. Among the …

Bound states in the continuum (BICs) are located states embedded in the continuous
spectrum, therefore, they have infinite quality (Q) factor. Here, we find that many types of …

Symmetry-protected and accidental bound states in the continuum (BICs) are generated by
various triggering mechanisms, and it is challenging to use them together for sensing. This …

We experimentally observe lasing in a hexamer plasmonic lattice and find that, when tuning
the scale of the unit cell, the polarization properties of the emission change. By a theoretical …

Photonic bound states in the continuum (BICs) are highly localized optical modes that have
found important applications in lasers, sensors, modulators, and harmonic signal …

Fano resonance, known for its unique asymmetric line shape, has gained significant
attention in photonics, particularly in sensing applications. However, it remains difficult to …
