MIT engineers have developed a way to generate 3D photonic devices with nanoscale features, by shrinking them after fabrication. In their new study, they created devices in a variety of shapes, including helices and a shape inspired by the wing of a butterfly.

Light-responsive hydrogels are attractive materials for mimicking dynamic microstructures in nature, providing platform for tunable devices in photonics, sensing, and biomedicine.

Light near the surface of ultra-thin optical fibers allows sorting of chiral nanoparticles based on their handedness

Nanohole-induced confinement and charge neutralization deliver bright, stable quantum emission without electrical gating

Technion researchers led by Prof. Guy Bartal have created the first on-chip nanophotonic platform that deterministically generates single-photon quantum skyrmions. Using a gold circular grating to control total angular momentum (TAM) of surface plasmons, the device transforms heralded single photons into robust, topologically protected SAM-OAM entangled states with skyrmion number ±2 — without post-selection or multi-photon entanglement. This breakthrough paves the way for sc
