Phys.org  October 16, 2024 Nonlinear metasurfaces are used for infrared imaging and spectroscopy. However, due to their low conversion efficiencies several strategies have been adopted to enhance their performances. Using resonances at signal or nonlinear emission wavelengths results in a narrow operational band of the nonlinear metasurfaces, which has bottlenecked many applications, including nonlinear holography, image encoding, and nonlinear metalenses. An international team of researchers (UK, Australia) introduced a new nonlinear imaging platform to overcome this issue. They demonstrated broadband nonlinear imaging for arbitrary objects using metasurfaces. A silicon disk-on-slab metasurface was introduced with an excitable guided-mode resonance at the […]
