We demonstrate that the fundamental causality principle being applied to strongly chiral artificial materials yields the generalized Kramers-Kronig relations for the observables -- circular dichroism and optical activity. The relations include the Blaschke terms determined by material-specific features - the zeros of transmission amplitude on the complex frequency plane. By the example of subwavelength arrays of chiral holes in silver films we show that the causality relations can be used not only for a precise verification of experimental data but also for resolving the positions of material anomalies and resonances and quantifying the degree of their chiral splitting.

Light modulation is an essential operation in photonics and optoelectronics. With existing and emerging technologies increasingly demanding compact, efficient, fast and broadband optical modulators, high-performance light modulation solutions are bec
oming indispensable. The recent realization that two-dimensional layered materials could modulate light with superior performance has prompted intense research and significant advances, paving the way for realistic applications. In this review, we cover the state-of-the-art of optical modulators based on two-dimensional layered materials including graphene, transition metal dichalcogenides and black phosphorus. We discuss recent advances employing hybrid structures, such as two-dimensional heterostructures, plasmonic structures, and silicon/fibre integrated structures. We also take a look at future perspectives and discuss the potential of yet relatively unexplored mechanisms such as magneto-optic and acousto-optic modulation.
We demonstrate the possibility of generation of coherent radiation with tunable frequencies higher than the frequency of the driving field $ u _{d}$ in a nonlinear medium utilizing the difference combination resonance that occurs when $ u _{d}$ match
es the difference of the frequencies of the two generated fields $omega _{1}$ and $omega _{2}$. We find that such a resonance can appear in materials which have opposite signs of refractive index at $omega _{1}$ and $omega _{2}$. It can also occur in positive refractive index materials with strong anomalous dispersion if at one of the generated frequencies the group and phase velocities are opposite to each other. We show that the light amplification mechanism is equivalent to a combination resonance in a system of two coupled parametric oscillators with the opposite sign of masses. Such a mechanism holds promise for a new kind of light source that emits coherent radiation of tunable wavelengths by an optical parametric amplification process with the frequency higher than $ u_{d}$.
Photons are nonchiral particles: their handedness can be both left and right. However, when light is transversely confined, it can locally exhibit a transverse spin whose orientation is fixed by the propagation direction of the photons. Confined phot
ons thus have chiral character. Here, we employ this to demonstrate nonreciprocal transmission of light at the single-photon level through a silica nanofibre in two experimental schemes. We either use an ensemble of spin-polarised atoms that is weakly coupled to the nanofibre-guided mode or a single spin-polarised atom strongly coupled to the nanofibre via a whispering-gallery-mode resonator. We simultaneously achieve high optical isolation and high forward transmission. Both are controlled by the internal atomic state. The resulting optical diode is the first example of a new class of nonreciprocal nanophotonic devices which exploit the chirality of confined photons and which are, in principle, suitable for quantum information processing and future quantum optical networks.
Analytical forms of the optical helicity and optical chirality of monochromatic Laguerre-Gaussian optical vortex beams are derived up to second order in the paraxial parameter $kw_0$. We show that input linearly polarised optical vortices which posse
ss no optical chirality, helicity or spin densities can acquire them at the focal plane for values of a beam waist $w_0 approx lambda$ via an OAM-SAM conversion which is manifest through longitudinal (with respect to the direction of propagation) fields. We place the results into context with respect to the intrinsic and extrinsic nature of SAM and OAM, respectively; the continuity equation which relates the densities of helicity and spin; and the newly coined term Kelvins chirality which describes the extrinsic, geometrical chirality of structured laser beams. Finally we compare our work (which agrees with previous studies) to the recent article Koksal, et al. Optics Communications 490, 126907 (2021) which shows conflicting results, highlighting the importance of including all relevant terms to a given order in the paraxial parameter.
We use a supervised machine-learning model based on a neural network to predict the temporal and spectral intensity profiles of the pulses that form upon nonlinear propagation in optical fibers with both normal and anomalous second-order dispersion.
We also show that the model is able to retrieve the parameters of the nonlinear propagation from the pulses observed at the output of the fiber. Various initial pulse shapes as well as initially chirped pulses are investigated.
