Resonant dielectric nanoparticles made of materials with large positive dielectric permittivity,
such as Si, GaP, GaAs, have become a powerful platform for modern light science, enabling …

The multipolar decomposition of electromagnetic sources is an important tool for the study of
light–matter interactions in general, and optical materials in particular. Here, a report is given …

The original Kerker effect was introduced for a hypothetical magnetic sphere, and initially it
did not attract much attention due to a lack of magnetic materials required. Rejuvenated by …

Nanoplasmonics has recently revolutionized our ability to control light on the nanoscale.
Using metallic nanostructures with tailored shapes, it is possible to efficiently focus light into …

We study the angular scattering properties of individual core-shell nanoparticles that support
simultaneously both electric and optically-induced magnetic resonances of different orders …

Phased-array metamaterial systems are enabling new classes of refractive and diffractive
optical elements through spatial-phase engineering. In this article, we develop design …

We propose generalized magnetic mirrors that can be achieved by excitations of sole
electric resonances. Conventional approaches to obtain magnetic mirrors rely heavily on …

By studying the scattering of normally incident plane waves by a single nanowire, we reveal
the indispensable role of toroidal multipole excitation in multipole expansions of radiating …

Scattering of electromagnetic waves by an arbitrary nanoscale object can be characterized
by a multipole decomposition of the electromagnetic field that allows one to describe the …

The scattering of nanoparticles plays a profound role in the recently flourishing fields of
plasmonics and metamaterials. However, current investigations into nanoparticle scattering …
