TL;DR: In this paper, the authors measured the near-infrared photoluminescence spectra of colloidal quantum dots coupled to the localized electric and magnetic resonances of subwavelength silicon nanodisks.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors demonstrate the feasibility of ultra-thin quantum metadevices for manipulation and measurement of multi-photon quantum states with applications in free-space quantum imaging and communications.

TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of a substrate on the optical properties of high-refractive-index dielectric nanoparticles was studied, both numerically and analytically, and it was shown that the optical response of subwavelength nanoparticles can be effectively modeled in the dipole approximation when the dielectrics particle is replaced by a pair of point electric and magnetic dipoles with modified polarizabilities.

TL;DR: Under cylindrically symmetric light-matter interaction, the radially, azimuthally, and spirally polarized eigen-modes for the light field are revealed to be of a fundamental interest to describe the physical mechanisms at work when dealing with scalar and vectorial optical singularities.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors demonstrate a chiral electromagnetic diode, which is a direct analogue of an electronic diode and its functionality is underpinned by an extraordinarily strong nonlinear wave propagation effect.
