How high-index dielectric nanoparticles can offer a substitute for plasmonic nanoparticle structures, providing a highly flexible and low-loss route to the manipulation of light at the nanoscale is reviewed.
Abstract
The resonant modes of plasmonic nanoparticle structures made of gold or silver endow them with an ability to manipulate light at the nanoscale. However, owing to the high light losses caused by metals at optical wavelengths, only a small fraction of plasmonics applications have been realized. Kuznetsov et al. review how high-index dielectric nanoparticles can offer a substitute for these metals, providing a highly flexible and low-loss route to the manipulation of light at the nanoscale.

Fano resonances in photonics

TL;DR: In this article, a broad range of resonant electromagnetic effects by using two effective coupled oscillators, including the Fano resonance, electromagnetically induced transparency, Kerker and Borrmann effects, and parity-time symmetry breaking, are reviewed.

Asymmetric Metasurfaces with High-Q Resonances Governed by Bound States in the Continuum.

TL;DR: It is revealed that metasurfaces created by seemingly different lattices of (dielectric or metallic) meta-atoms with broken in-plane symmetry can support sharp high-Q resonances arising from a distortion of symmetry-protected bound states in the continuum.
