This review describes the emerging field of waveguide quantum electrodynamics concerned
with the interaction of photons propagating in a waveguide with localized quantum emitters …

This Colloquium describes a new paradigm for creating strong quantum interactions of light
and matter by way of single atoms and photons in nanoscopic lattices. Beyond the …

Optical tweezers employing forces produced by light underpin important manipulation tools
employed in numerous areas of applied and biological physics. Conventional optical …

Metamaterials, man-made composite media structured on a scale much smaller than a
wavelength, offer surprising possibilities for engineering the propagation of waves,,,,,. One of …

Here, we present a fundamental study on how the ground-state chemical reactivity of a
single molecule can be modified in a QED scenario, ie, when it is placed inside a nanoscale …

Programmable radio environments parametrized by reconfigurable intelligent surfaces
(RISs) are emerging as a new wireless communications paradigm, but currently used …

We consider light scattering off a two-dimensional (2D) dipolar array and show how it can be
tailored by properly choosing the lattice constant of the order of the incident wavelength. In …

Light scattering by a small spherical particle, a central topic for electromagnetic scattering
theory, is here considered. In this short review, some of the basic features of its resonant …

The exciting discovery of topological condensed matter systems has lately triggered a
search for their photonic analogues, motivated by the possibility of robust backscattering …

We present a biorthogonal approach for modeling the response of localized electromagnetic
resonators using quasinormal modes, which represent the natural, dissipative eigenmodes …
