This review provides a perspective on the recent developments in the transmission of light
through subwavelength apertures in metal films. The main focus is on the phenomenon of …

Dielectric and metallic gratings have been studied for more than a century. Nevertheless,
novel optical phenomena and fabrication techniques have emerged recently and have …

The light-matter interaction can be utilized to qualitatively alter physical properties of
materials. Recent theoretical and experimental studies have explored this possibility of …

We demonstrate controlled squeezing of visible light waves into nanometer-sized optical
cavities. The light is perpendicularly confined in a few-nanometer-thick SiO 2 film …

Interaction of TM-polarized waves with a subwavelength thick metallic slit has been
analyzed. A Fabry-Pérot-like behavior is reported. The resonance peaks, however, have …

Local electromagnetic field fluctuations and related enhancement of nonlinear phenomena
in metal-dielectric composites near the percolation threshold (percolation composites) have …

Recents works dealt with the optical transmission on arrays of subwavelength holes in a
metallic layer deposited on a dielectric substrate. Making the system as realistic as possible …

We present detailed analysis of the optical properties of a structure called a nanosheet
plasmon cavity. It is a metal-insulator-metal (MIM) waveguide with a finite length. First …

Abstract Space-coiling acoustic metasurfaces have been largely exploited and shown their
outstanding wave manipulation capacity. However, they are complex in realization and …

We present an experimental and theoretical study of the optical transmission of a thin metal
screen perforated by two subwavelength slits, separated by many optical wavelengths. The …
