Illuminating Quantum Phenomena in 2D Materials: The Power of Optical Spectroscopy
Atomically thin 2D materials host quantum tunnelling, plasmonic and excitonic phenomena driven by reduced dimensionality and strong many‐body interactions. This review links these effects to state‐of‐the‐art optical probes—NSOM, pump–probe, CARS, TRR, and optical frequency comb spectroscopy—highlighting how their ultrahigh spatial–temporal resolution ...

Graded Plasmonic Metagratings for Directional Nonlinear Optical Sensing
A refractometric sensing approach is presented, based on the angular variation of the emission pattern while changing the local environment. This method is first demonstrated on rectangular arrays, then on an aperiodic metagrating configuration designed to shape the first diffraction orders into a broadened band. Abstract Plasmon‐enhanced sensing based

Flat Optics for Polarization Structure Engineering from 2D to 3D
Metasurfaces have transformed polarization control by enabling precise engineering of complex polarization structures. This review explores their evolution from generating 2D polarization structures to shaping fully 3D polarization fields. By unlocking the unprecedented control over the polarization and spectral information of light, these advances ...

A simple and efficient method for determining the stability of optical vortices via Fourier transform using a conventional spherical lens is presented. The theoretical and experimental results demonstrate a practical approach to directly and unambiguously measure the magnitude and sign of the topological charge of a beam without altering an ...
