Detail: | Abstract:
Interfacial engineering via the artificially constructed structures of ultrathin thickness compared to the wavelength has enabled a plethora of advanced manipulations of light-matter interactions. In particular, the low-dimension and high-frequency scaling may promise a lot more interesting applications, while the challenges in design principle and fabrication capability will become critical limits. I will report some of the most recent developments in my group as well as in the field of the interfacial engineering of manipulation of light-matter interactions, via the artificially constructed structures of ultrathin thickness compared to the wavelength. Nano-patterned surfaces to modulate and structure novel light behavior will be studied and the following advanced functionalities will be discussed: 3D meta-hologram, high-pixelated nanoprinting, dynamic OAM generation, and more interestingly, the 2D-material meta-lens of <1nm thickness, etc. our work paves a roadmap to design sophisticated and advanced optical devices, with low dimension, miniaturization, randomness, and multi-tasking capabilities.
