Subwavelength confinement of light with plasmonics is promising for nanophotonics and
optoelectronics. However, it is nontrivial to obtain narrow plasmonic resonances due to the …

In the past centuries, the scale of engineering optics has evolved toward two opposite
directions: one is represented by giant telescopes with apertures larger than tens of meters …

At present, solar energy is widely used as a kind of clean energy. The main solar radiation
range under AM 1.5 is about 300~ 3000 nm. In this paper, we designed an efficient, ultra …

Solar-heating catalysis has the potential to realize zero artificial energy consumption, which
is restricted by the low ambient solar heating temperatures of photothermal materials. Here …

Optical stealth technology is being developed to cope with high‐sensitivity infrared image
detectors and various guided detectors. Infrared stealth technology has remarkable …

Light, heat, and waves in electromagnetic energy are the foundation for the advancement of
human being. Camouflage materials based on metamaterials are used to excel the …

Ambient sunlight-driven CO2 methanation cannot be realized due to the temperature being
less than 80° C upon irradiation with dispersed solar energy. In this work, a selective light …

Electromagnetic wave absorbers with thinner structural thickness but with broader spectral
absorption bandwidth are more desirable for various applications in solar energy and …

The mid-infrared (mid-IR) is a strategically important band for numerous applications
ranging from night vision to biochemical sensing. Here we theoretically analyzed and …

This study experimentally demonstrates infrared wavelength selective thermal emission
based on Tamm plasmon polaritons (TPPs). Unlike conventional TPP structures, which have …
