In the framework of photonics with all-dielectric nanoantennas, sub-micro-metric spheres can be exploited for a plethora of applications including vanishing back-scattering, enhanced directivity of a light emitter, beam steering, and large Purcell factors. Here, the potential of a high-throughput fabrication method based on aerosol-spray is shown to form quasi-perfect sub-micrometric spheres of polycrystalline TiO 2 . Spectroscopic investigation of light scattering from individual particles reveals sharp resonances in agreement with Mie theory, neat structural colors, and a high directivity. Owing to the high permittivity and lossless material in use, this method opens the way toward the implementation of isotropic meta-materials and forward-directional sources with magnetic responses at visible and near-UV frequencies, not accessible with conventional Si- and Ge-based Mie resonators.

Dielectric Mie nanoresonators showing strong light-matter interaction at the nanoscale may enable new functionality in photonic devices. Recently, strong magneto-optical effects have been observed in magneto-optical nanophotonic devices due to the el
ectromagnetic field localization. However, most reports so far have been focused on the enhancement of conventional magneto-optical effects. Here, we report the observation of circular displacement current induced anomalous magneto-optical effects in high-index-contrast Si/Ce:YIG/YIG/SiO2 Mie resonators. In particular, giant modulation of light intensity in transverse magnetic configuration up to 6.4 % under s-polarized incidence appears, which is non-existent in planar magneto-optical thin films. Apart from that, we observe a large rotation of transmitted light polarization in the longitudinal magnetic configuration under near normal incidence conditions, which is two orders of magnitude higher than for a planar magneto-optical thin film. These phenomena are essentially originated from the unique circular displacement current when exciting the magnetic resonance modes in the Mie resonators, which changes the incident electric field direction locally. Our work indicates an uncharted territory of light polarization control based on the complex modal profiles in all-dielectric magneto-optical Mie resonators and metasurfaces, which opens the door for versatile control of light propagation by magnetization for a variety of applications in vectoral magnetic field and biosensing, free space non-reciprocal photonic devices, magneto-optical imaging and optomagnetic memories.
High space-bandwidth product with high spatial phase sensitivity is indispensable for a single-shot quantitative phase microscopy (QPM) system. It opens avenue for widespread applications of QPM in the field of biomedical imaging. Temporally low cohe
rence length light sources are generally implemented to achieve high spatial phase sensitivity in QPM at the cost of either reduced temporal resolution or smaller field of view (FOV). On the contrary, high temporal coherence light sources like lasers are capable of exploiting the full FOV of the QPM systems at the expense of less spatial phase sensitivity. In the present work, we employed pseudo-thermal light source (PTLS) in QPM which overcomes the limitations of conventional light sources. The capabilities of PTLS over conventional light sources are systematically studied and demonstrated on various test objects like USAF resolution chart and thin optical waveguide (height ~ 8 nm). The spatial phase sensitivity of QPM in case of PTLS is measured to be equivalent to that for white light source. The high-speed and large FOV capabilities of PTLS based QPM is demonstrated by high-speed imaging of live sperm cells that is limited by the camera speed and by imaging extra-ordinary large FOV phase imaging on histopathology placenta tissue samples.
There is an ongoing debate about the relative importance of structural change versus doping charge carriers on the mechanism of superconductivity in Fe-based materials. Elucidating this issue is a major challenge since it would require a large number
of samples where structure properties or the carrier density is systematically varied. FeSe, with its structural simplicity, is an ideal platform for addressing this question. It has been demonstrated that the superconductivity in this material can be controlled through crystal lattice tuning, as well as electronic structure manipulation. Here, we apply a high-throughput methodology to FeSe to systematically delineate the interdependence of its structural and electronic properties. Using a dual-beam pulsed laser deposition, we have generated FeSe films with a marked gradient in the superconducting transition temperature (below 2 K < Tc < 12 K) across 1 cm width of the films. The Tc gradient films display ~ 1% continuous stretch and compression in the out-of-plane and in-plane lattice constants respectively, triggering the continuous enhancement of superconductivity. Combining transport and angular-resolved photoemission measurements on uniform FeSe films with tunable Tc from 3 K to 14 K, we find that the electron carrier density is intimately correlated with Tc, i.e., it increases by a factor of 6 and ultimately surpasses the almost constant hole concentration. Our transmission electron microscope and band structure calculations reveal that rather than by shifting the chemical potential, the enhanced superconductivity is linked to the selective adjustment of the dxy band dispersion across the Fermi level by means of reduced local lattice distortions. Therefore, such novel mechanism provides a key to understand discrete superconducting phases in FeSe.
In this paper we discuss the force exerted by the field of an optical cavity on a polarizable dipole. We show that the modification of the cavity modes due to interaction with the dipole significantly alters the properties of the force. In particular
, all components of the force are found to be non-conservative, and cannot, therefore, be derived from a potential energy. We also suggest a simple generalization of the standard formulas for the optical force on the dipole, which reproduces the results of calculations based on the Maxwell stress tensor.
Future technologies underpinning high-performance optical communications, ultrafast computations and compact biosensing will rely on densely packed reconfigurable optical circuitry based on nanophotonics. For many years, plasmonics was considered as
the only available platform for nanoscale optics, but the recently emerged novel field of Mie resonant metaphotonics provides more practical alternatives for nanoscale optics by employing resonances in high-index dielectric nanoparticles and structures. In this mini-review we highlight some recent trends in the physics of dielectric Mie-resonant nanostructures with high quality factor (Q factor) for efficient spatial and temporal control of light by employing multipolar resonances and the bound states in the continuum. We discuss a few applications of these concepts to nonlinear optics, nanolasers, subwavelength waveguiding, and sensing.
