Revealing the Resonant Physics of Open Photonic Time Crystals
Laser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Photonic time crystals (PTCs) are media whose permittivity is modulated periodically in time, enabling momentum bandgaps and parametric amplification of light. Their realization at the nanoscale can revolutionize the study of light‐matter interactions.

High‐Efficiency Graphene‐Silicon Slot‐Waveguide Microring Modulator at 1.5 and 2 µm Wavelength Bands
Laser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.E/O modulators typically face a trade‐off between bandwidth and modulation efficiency. An integrated E/O modulator is presented that simultaneously achieves wideband, large bandwidth, and high modulation efficiency operation by embedding a partially overlapped double‐layer graphene on a compact silicon slot‐waveguide microring resonator.

Predicting Statistical Signatures of Collective Emission in Disordered Color Center Ensembles
Laser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.We present an efficient simulation framework for modeling collective emission in disordered ensembles of quantum emitters. The low computational complexity enables large‐scale Monte Carlo simulations. Applied to SiV−${\rm SiV}^{-}$ clusters, it predicts thresholded superradiant bursts set by emitter number and quantum efficiency, as well as interaction‐

Intrinsically Design‐Rule‐Compliant Nanophotonic Inverse Design via Learned Generative Manifolds
Laser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.A generative reparameterization framework for nanophotonic inverse design is introduced, restricting optimization to a learned manifold of design‐rule‐compliant geometries. Unlike conventional penalty‐based approaches, fabrication constraints are encoded intrinsically within the design representation.

Diffraction‐Free Natural Optical Skyrmions and Their Subwavelength Confinement Around Vortices
Laser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Diffraction causes waves to spread out as they propagate freely. The tighter the lateral confinement, the faster the spreading. Past research on how to suppress diffraction has been based on wave engineering and has led so far to idealized waves that, in real settings, eventually diffract.

Tunable Terahertz Generation in Dispersion‐Engineered ZnTe Waveguides
Laser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.A dispersion‐engineered Zinc Telluride (ZnTe) slab waveguide platform enables tunable and efficient guided‐wave terahertz (THz) generation through modal phase matching. By tailoring the optical and THz modal dispersion, coherent THz emission is achieved across 0.1–3 THz.
