Harnessing optical bound states in the continuum for ultrafast, reconfigurable, long-range photonic networks

Bound states in the continuum (BICs) provide a route to strong, long-range photonic coupling with dynamic tunability. Recent advances demonstrate that BIC metasurfaces enable reconfigurable two-dimensional coupling between arbitrarily positioned resonators, with the added capability of ultrafast all-optical control.

Abstract

Bound states in the continuum (BICs) provide a route to strong, long-range photonic coupling with dynamic tunability. Recent advances demonstrate that BIC metasurfaces enable reconfigurable two-dimensional coupling between arbitrarily positioned resonators, with the added capability of ultrafast all-optical control.
