We theoretically demonstrate a high-Q and intense lattice plasmon resonance supported by the hexagonal nonclose packed thin silver nanoshells array. By introducing the diffraction coupling mechanism, the high-Q and intense lattice plasmon mode stemmed from the coupling between the TM1 cavity plasmon mode and the diffraction mode of the first-order Wood anomaly is obtained in the thin silver nanoshells array, successfully solving the trade-off between the Q-factor and the resonance intensity of the cavity plasmon mode existed in a single silver nanoshell. In particular, a maximum Q-factor up to 610 of the lattice plasmon resonance is successfully achieved at 870 nm in the silver nanoshell array with an optimal silver thickness of 20 nm.

This paper reports how CdSe core-only nanoplatelets (NPLs) coupled with plasmonic Al nanoparticle lattices can exhibit exciton-polariton lasing. By improving a procedure to synthesize monodisperse 4-monolayer CdSe NPLs, we could resolve polariton decay dynamics and pathways. Experiment and theory confirmed that the system is in the strong coupling regime based on anticrossings in the dispersion diagrams and magnitude of the Rabi-splitting values. Notably, polariton lasing is observed only for cavity lattice periodicities that exhibit specific dispersive characteristics that enable polariton accumulation. The threshold of polariton lasing is 25-fold lower than the reported photon lasing values from CdSe NPLs in similar cavity designs. This open-cavity platform offers a simple approach to control exciton polaritons anticipated to benefit quantum information processing, optoelectronics, and chemical reactions.

Recently, improvement of the sensing performance of refractive index sensors using the weak far-field radiation and strong local field enhancement properties of toroidal dipole resonances has been intensively studied. Transmission/reflection spectra with significant narrow linewidth resonance have a vital effect in improving the sensing performance. However, a narrower linewidth always leads to smaller modulation depth of the resonance, which hinders the sensing performance to be improved for experiments. In this paper, we design an ultrathin all-dielectric asymmetric X-type metasurface array, where an extremely narrow linewidth and high modulation depth of transmission resonance in the near-infrared have been demonstrated with Mie lattice resonance formed by the coupling of the toroidal dipole with Rayleigh anomalous diffraction. With optimized structure parameters, a transmission dip with a full width at half-maximum as narrow as 0.061 nm and a modulation depth as high as 99.24% are achieved at a wavelength of 943.33 nm with a corresponding Q factor of 15464. According to the analysis of the displacement current distributions and the scattered powers in the far field at the resonant and nonresonant wavelengths, it is confirmed that the narrow linewidth resonance originates from the coupling of the toroidal dipole with Rayleigh anomalous diffraction. A sensitivity and a figure of merit of 321 nm RIU−1 and 5262 RIU−1 are numerically demonstrated respectively for a refractive index sensor based on the all-dielectric asymmetric X-type metasurface array.

A polarization-independent, all-optically modulated multiband metamaterial coherent perfect absorber (CPA) is proposed. Numerical simulation results reveal that the absorber can be controlled over a wide range of amplitudes by changing the phase difference of two incident light beams. The all-optical modulation can be extended to telecom wavelengths, allowing for simultaneous modulation of absorption at 1310 nm and 1550 nm. In addition, switchable logical gate states can be achieved at the dip between absorption peaks. The proposed absorber utilizes bound states in the continuum (BIC) mode to realize another absorption band, expanding the application range and enhancing its flexibility. The results suggest that the proposed absorber has a promising modulated optical response, with potential applications in developing optical switches, smart multi-band absorbers, telecom devices and so on.

Surface lattice resonance (SLR) is a pretty effective mechanism to realize ultranarrow linewidths in the spectrum. Herein, we propose and demonstrate reflection-type SLRs in all-metal metasurfaces experimentally, compared with the traditional transmission-type SLR, which can avoid the refractive index (RI) mismatch problem and are more suitable for high-efficiency RI sensing due to direct contact and strong light–matter interaction. The measured SLR linewidth is 13.5 nm influenced by the meta-atom size, which needs a compromise design to keep a balance between the narrow linewidth and noise immunity. Notably, the SLR sensitivity is determined by the lattice period along the polarization direction with regularity, which establishes an intuitive link between structures and optical responses and provides a theoretical guide for metasurface designs. Additionally, incident angle multiplexing will make the resonance wavelength red shift or blue shift in the case of orthogonal polarization. The rectangular array metasurface can realize dual SLRs with different sensing performances. Flexibly, the SLR can also be formed by the different meta-atoms and arrays. This research supports SLR multifarious applications involving not only RI sensing but also nonlinear optics, nano-lasers, etc.

We present a numerical study on a 2D array of plasmonic structures covered by a subwavelength film. We explain the origin of surface lattice resonances (SLRs) using the coupled dipole approximation and show that the diffraction-assisted plasmonic resonances and formation of bound states in the continuum (BICs) can be controlled by altering the optical environment. Our study shows that when the refractive index contrast Δn < -0.1, the SLR cannot be excited, while a significant contrast (Δn > 0.3) not only sustains plasmonic-induced resonances but also forms both symmetry-protected and accidental BICs. The results can aid the streamlined design of plasmonic lattices in studies on light-matter interactions and applications in biosensors and optoelectronic devices.
