Unprecedented material compatibility and ease of integration, in addition to the unique and diverse optoelectronic properties of layered materials have generated significant interest in their utilization in nanophotonic devices. While initial nanophotonic experiments primarily focused on light-sources, modulators, and detectors, recently researchers have demonstrated nonlinear optical devices using layered materials. In this paper, we review the current state of cavity-enhanced nonlinear optics with layered materials. Along with conventional nonlinear optics related to harmonic generation, we report on emerging directions of nonlinear optics, where the layered materials can potentially play a significant role.

The ease of integration coupled with large second-order nonlinear coefficient of atomically thin layered 2D materials presents a unique opportunity to realize second-order nonlinearity in silicon compatible integrated photonic system. However, the ph ase matching requirement for second-order nonlinear optical processes makes the nanophotonic design difficult. We show that by nano-patterning the 2D material, quasi-phase matching can be achieved. Such patterning based phase-matching could potentially compensate for inevitable fabrication errors and significantly simplify the design process of the nonlinear nano-photonic devices.
We report topological nonlinear optics with spin-orbit coupled Bose-Einstein condensate in a cavity. The cavity is driven by a pump laser and weak probe laser which excite Bose-Einstein condensate to an intermediate storage level, where the standard Raman process engineers spin-orbit coupling. We show that the nonlinear photonic interactions at the transitional pathways of dressed states result in new type of optical transparencies, which get completely inverted with atom induced gain. These nonlinear interactions also implant topological sort of features in probe transmission modes by inducing gapless Dirac-like cones, which become gaped in presence of Raman detuning. The topological features get interestingly enhanced in gain regime where the gapless topological edge-like states emerge among the probe modes, which can cause non-trivial phase transition. We show that spin-orbit coupling and Zeeman field effects also impressively revamp fast and slow probe light. The manipulation of dressed states for quantum nonlinear optics with topological characteristics in our findings could be a crucial step towards topological quantum computation.

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 consider a hybrid plasmon-exciton system comprised of a resonant molecular subsystem and three Au wires supporting a dipole mode which can be coupled to a dark mode in controllable fashion by variation of a symmetry parameter. The physics of such a system under strong coupling conditions is examined in detail. It is shown that if two wires supporting the dark mode are covered with molecular layers the system exhibits four resonant modes for a strong coupling regime due to asymmetry and lifted degeneracy of the molecular state in this case, while upon having molecular aggregates covering the top wire with dipolar mode, three resonant modes appear. Pump-probe simulations are performed to scrutinize the quantum dynamics and find possible ways to control plasmon-exciton materials. It is demonstrated that one can design hybrid nanomaterials with highly pronounced Fano-type resonances when excited by femtosecond lasers.
The diverse quantization phenomena in 2D condensed-matter systems, being due to a uniform perpendicular magnetic field and the geometry-created lattice symmetries, are the focuses of this book. They cover the diversified magneto-electronic properties , the various magneto-optical selection rules, the unusual quantum Hall conductivities, and the single- and many-particle magneto-Coulomb excitations. The rich and unique behaviors are clearly revealed in few-layer graphene systems with the distinct stacking configurations, the stacking-modulated structures, and the silicon-doped lattices, bilayer silicene/germanene systems with the bottom-top and bottom-bottom buckling structures, monolayer and bilayer phosphorene systems, and quantum topological insulators. The generalized tight-binding model, the static and dynamic Kubo formulas, and the random-phase approximation, are developed/modified to thoroughly explore the fundamental properties and propose the concise physical pictures. The different high-resolution experimental measurements are discussed in detail, and they are consistent with the theoretical predictions.
