Raman lasers are an actively developing field of nonlinear optics aiming to create efficient frequency converters and various optical sensors. Due to the growing importance of ultracompact chip‐scale technologies, there is a constant demand for optical device miniaturization; however, the development of a nanoscale Raman laser remains a challenging endeavor. In this work, a fully subwavelength Raman laser operating in visible range is proposed, based on a gallium phosphide nanocylinder resonator supporting a quasi‐bound state in the continuum (quasi‐BIC). The precise spectral matching of the nanoparticle high‐Q modes is performed with the pump and detuned Raman emission wavelengths. The simulations demonstrate an experiment‐ready design of Raman nanolaser with a lasing threshold expected to be as low as Pth≈21mW$P_{\mathrm{th}} \approx 21\nobreakspace \mathrm{mW}$. The proposed configuration represents the prototype of a low‐threshold Raman nanolaser with all dimensions smaller than the operational wavelength. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Efficient second harmonic generation and broad-band photoluminescence from deeply subwavelength and nontoxic nanoparticles is essential for nanophotonic applications. Here, we explore nonlinear optical response from mesoporous Si/SiO2, SiO2, and Si nanoparticles, considering various fabrication and treatment procedures. We show that thermal annealing (including femtosecond laser treatment) of mesoporous Si/SiO2 nanoparticles provides the transformation of Si phase from amorphous to crystalline, enhancing the second harmonic and nonlinear photoluminescent response. Notably, the SiO2 mesoporous frame of the considered Si/SiO2 nanoparticles plays a dual positive role for the nonlinear process: it stabilizes the Si material, and SiO2:OH− material has a second-order nonlinearity itself and impacts to the observed second harmonic signal.

High-order wave mixing in solid-state platforms gather increasing importance due to the development of advanced lasers and integrated photonic circuit for both classical and quantum information. However, the high-order wave mixing is generally inefficient in solids under weak pump. Here, we observed the presence of phase matching of five-wave mixing (5WM) propagating in a zinc oxide (ZnO) microwire. The 5WM signal is enhanced by 2–3 orders of magnitude under the phase matching conditions, reaching an absolute conversion efficiency of 1.7 × 10−13 when the peak pumping power density is about 106 W/cm2. The propagation of multiple nonlinear signals, including sum frequency generation, third harmonic generation, four-wave mixing etc., benefited from both the large nonlinear coefficients and the wide transparent window of ZnO, implies the possibility of developing cascaded nonlinear process under higher pumping. This study enriches the ZnO platform for integrated nonlinear nanophotonics.

We demonstrate that AlGaAs thin films and metasurfaces generate a distinct intrinsic nonlinear geometric phase in their second harmonic signals, differing significantly from previous studies on nonlinear dielectric, plasmonic, or hybrid metasurfaces. Unlike conventional observations, our study reveals that the second harmonic phase remains unaffected by the linear optical response at both pump and harmonic wavelengths, introducing a novel realm of achievable phase functions yet to be explored. Furthermore, we explore the interplay between this intrinsic nonlinear geometric phase and the geometric phase induced by rotations of nanoresonators within metasurface arrangements. Our findings extend the capabilities of nonlinear wavefront shaping metasurfaces, exploiting phase manipulation to uncover unique phenomena exclusive to the nonlinear regime.

Monolayers of transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) demonstrate plenty of unique properties due to the band structure. Symmetry breaking brings second-order susceptibility to meaningful values resulting in the enhancement of corresponding nonlinear effects. Cooling the TMDC films to cryogenic temperatures leads to the emergence of two distinct photoluminescence peaks caused by the exciton and trion formation. These intrinsic excitations are known to enhance second harmonic generation. The nonlinear signal can be greatly increased if these material resonances are boosted by high-quality factor geometric resonance of all-dielectric metasurfaces. Here, we experimentally observe optical second harmonic generation caused by excitons of 2D semiconductor MoSe2 at room and cryogenic temperatures enhanced by spectrally overlapped high-Q resonance of TiO2 nanodisks metasurface. The enhancement reaches two orders of magnitude compared to the case when the resonances are not spectrally overlapped.

Optical rectification (OR) at the nanoscale has attracted an increasing interest in the prospect of providing efficient ultracompact terahertz (THz) sources. Here, a universal modeling approach capable of addressing both isotropic and anisotropic all‐dielectric nonlinear nanomaterials on an ultra‐broad spectral range, covering the highly dispersive phonon‐polariton window, and different orientations of the crystallographic axes with respect to the geometry of the structure is reported. This analysis is exemplified by considering two study cases, that is, nanopillars of AlGaAs and of LiNbO3. A close comparison between the two cases is established in terms of THz generation efficiency from 4 to 14 THz. Phonon‐polariton contributions to the OR process are disentangled from the electronic one, and a model order reduction based on the reciprocity theorem is applied and validated on both the considered configurations. These results, combined with the inspection of the THz near‐field features, pave the way to the design and optimization of nonlinear metasurfaces for THz generation and detection at the nanoscale.

Nonlinear silicon photonics has a high compatibility with CMOS technology and therefore is particularly attractive for various purposes and applications. Second harmonic generation (SHG) in silicon nanowires (NWs) is widely studied for its high sensitivity to structural changes, low-cost fabrication, and efficient tunability of photonic properties. In this study, we report a fabrication and SHG study of Si nanowire/siloxane flexible membranes. The proposed highly transparent flexible membranes revealed a strong nonlinear response, which was enhanced via activation by an infrared laser beam. The vertical arrays of several nanometer-thin Si NWs effectively generate the SH signal after being exposed to femtosecond infrared laser irradiation in the spectral range of 800–1020 nm. The stable enhancement of SHG induced by laser exposure can be attributed to the functional modifications of the Si NW surface, which can be used for the development of efficient nonlinear platforms based on silicon. This study delivers a valuable contribution to the advancement of optical devices based on silicon and presents novel design and fabrication methods for infrared converters. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Hybrid nonlinear plasmonic waveguides, characterized by a small mode area and large nonlinear susceptibility, present an intriguing and practical platform for the minimization of nonlinear photonic devices. Nevertheless, the intrinsic Ohmic loss associated with surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) and modal dispersion imposes constraints on the effective interaction length and, consequently, the ultimate efficiency of nonlinear processes. In this study, we demonstrate an efficient second harmonic generation (SHG) within a hybrid plasmonic waveguide by leveraging SPP-like modes at the fundamental wave and photonic-like modes at the SHG under phase matching conditions. The presence of photonic-like modes significantly reduces the SHG losses, while the SPP-like modes improve the modal overlap, resulting in SHG conversion efficiency up to 8.5% W -1 cm -2 in a 55 μm-long waveguide. Our findings offer new avenues for the minimization of nonlinear photonic devices on a chip.

Despite remarkable progress in passive nonlinear nanophotonics, dynamically controlled ultracompact nonlinear optical sources with high efficiency remain elusive. Nonvolatility, large refractive index contrast between amorphous and crystalline phases, low thermal threshold for crystallization, and particularly high‐third‐order nonlinear optical susceptibility of phase‐change alloy Ge2Sb2Te5 (GST) make it a promising candidate for active subwavelength metaphotonic structures for realization of third‐harmonic generation (THG) devices. Herein, a GST‐based asymmetric Fabry–Perot cavity is numerically designed and experimentally demonstrated to show a dynamically reconfigurable structure with a large shift of the THG resonant band. In addition, continuous resonant spectral shifting bridged by a precisely controlled semicrystalline phase of GST is realized. Tunable THG with the fundamental wavelength ranging from 1150 to 1400 nm is presented, which corresponds to a broadband THG source in the violet‐blue visible wavelength range. Herein, the potential of GST subwavelength structures as a reliable platform for realization of the broadband‐tunable frequency‐conversion sources for applications such as THG microscopy and optical communication is indicated.

The study of topological phases of light suggests novel opportunities for creating robust optical structures and on‐chip photonic devices which are immune against scattering losses and structural disorder. However, many recent demonstrations of topological effects in optics use structures with relatively large scales. Here, the physics and realization of topological photonics on small scales, with the dimensions often smaller or comparable with the wavelength of light, are discussed. The recent experimental demonstrations of small‐scale topological states based on arrays of resonant nanoparticles are highlighted and a novel photonic platform using higher‐order topological effects for creating subwavelength highly efficient topologically protected optical cavities is discussed. Special attention is paid to the recent progress on topological polaritonic structures and the paper concludes with the vision on the future directions of nanoscale topological photonics and its impact on other fields.

Semiconductor multi quantum well (MQW) design allows for the compression of electron-interaction dimensions, offering advantages for various applications, particularly in nonlinear optics. Despite the potential improvements in nonlinear optical responses, the influence of quantum well periods remains unexplored. In this study, we report the correlation of quantum well periods on the 3rd order nonlinear optical properties in In 0.15 Ga 0.85 N/GaN MQW using z-scan technique under femtosecond and continous wave laser regime. In 0.15 Ga 0.85 N well/GaN barrier with x1, x5, x10, x15 periods were grown by MOCVD technique. Good structural quality of grown MQWs were confirmed via HRTEM imaging, EDS, AFM and XRD. Absorption coefficient from UV-Vis coupled with PL emission spectrum shows systematic response of optical linear properties which provide an insight on the overall band gap structure. Positive nonlinear refraction, n 2 and nonlinear absoprtion, β trends is observed under femtosecond an CW laser albeit differences of one order magnitude in χ 3 value. The increase in χ 3 value is shown to be monotonous with the increasing number of quantum well suggesting that compounding effect took place. This findings indicate the possibility of manipulating and tuning nonlinear reponses of MQW structures leading to improvement in semiconductor design in various areas such as optoelectronics, photonics, solar cell research, as well as quantum information processing. • InGaN/GaN MQWs with different periods (x1, x5, x10, x15) were successfully grown by MOCVD, confirmed by HRTEM and EDS. • AFM reveals surface roughness between 10 to 36 nm, while XRD indicates layer thicknesses of 9 nm for GaN and 3 nm for InGaN. • UV-Vis spectroscopy shows minimum absorption, and photoluminescence analysis reveals band edge emssion at 465 nm. • χ(3) values are measured to be in the order of 10−6 esu and 10−5 esu for femtosecond and CW regime, respectively. • χ(3) values increase linearly with quantum well periods, indicating greater nonlinear optical responses in structures with more quantum wells.

The transient optical response of multiresonant all‐dielectric nanoantennas via a combination of broadband ultrafast reflectivity experiments and nonlinear optics nanoscale modeling is studied. Ultrafast all‐optical control of the reflectivity is demonstrated in variably sized Al.18Ga.82As nanoantennas over four distinct Mie resonances (including Fano‐like resonances), spanning a broad spectral range, from the red to the near‐infrared. A spatially inhomogeneous dynamical model, which accounts for diffusion of the photogenerated carriers inside the semiconductor, is introduced and exploited to isolate the physical phenomena leading to the overall transient response, namely, Drude plasma formation and Pauli blocking following band filling and thermo‐optical effect. The results pave the way to the development of multiwavelength all‐optically reconfigurable filters for next‐generation ultrafast add/drop multiplexing.

Time‐resolved nonlinear optical sum‐frequency generation (SFG) of two differently colored, infrared (sub‐)picosecond laser pulses is studied by means of nonlinear diffuse femtosecond‐pulse reflectometry using lithium niobate nanoparticle pellets. The visible SFG emission exhibits an asymmetric pulse shape in the time domain which is explained within the framework of light propagation in random media. The analysis of the spectro‐temporal data set indicates that LiNbO3 nanoparticle pellets can be used for an alternative type of an optical correlator, e.g., for the determination of a pulse's chirp parameter. This finding is generalized by means of numerical simulations. As a result, ultrashort pulse shapes can now be predicted inside nanoscaled, densely packed media with a nonlinear optical response on a comprehensive basis, giving rise to a number of prospective fields of applications.

Mie-type electric dipole resonance (EDR) is a commonly feasible Mie-type resonance in all-dielectric metasurfaces. However, conventional EDR suffers from the weak field enhancement and the poor field confinement inside the dielectric, resulting in an inefficient third harmonic generation (THG). Here, by presenting a bottom metal film and manipulating the array period, an effective perfect electric conductor (PEC) mirror effect and a novel coupling effect, as well as their successive combination, are proposed to doubly enhance the EDRs in silicon nanodisks and thus their THG at near-infrared. Numerical frequency and time domain responses demonstrate that the total THG conversion efficiency assisted by doubly enhanced EDR is raised by more than three and eight orders of magnitude compared to those of EDRs with only PEC effect and with a SiO2 substrate, respectively. Furthermore, silicon Kerr effect, describing the field-dependent refractive index with third-order susceptibility, is analyzed under increasing pump intensity. An unprecedented efficiency 10−2 under pump intensity 2 GW/cm2 is achieved despite the Kerr effect. This work paves a new way for engineering and boosting the Mie-type EDR, and facilitates its practical applications in quantum sources, spectroscopic and biochemical sensing. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract Dynamical tuning of the nonlinear optical wavefront allows for a specific spectral response of predefined profiles, enabling various applications of nonlinear nanophotonics. This study experimentally demonstrates the dynamical switching of images generated by an ultrathin silicon nonlinear metasurface supporting a high‐quality leaky mode, which is formed by partially breaking a bound‐state‐in‐the‐continuum (BIC) generated by the collective magnetic dipole (MD) resonance excited in the subdiffractive periodic systems. Such a quasi‐BIC MD state can be excited directly under normal plane wave incidence and leads to a strong near‐field enhancement to further boost the nonlinear process, resulting in a 500‐fold enhancement of the third‐harmonic emission experimentally. Due to sharp spectral features and asymmetry of the unit cell, it allows for effective tailoring of the nonlinear emissions over spectral or polarization responses. Dynamical nonlinear image tuning is experimentally demonstarted via polarization and wavelength control. The results pave the way for nanophotonics applications such as tunable displays, nonlinear holograms, tunable nanolaser, and ultrathin nonlinear nanodevices with various functionalities.

Nonlinear frequency conversion is one of the most fundamental processes in nonlinear optics. It has a wide range of applications in our daily lives, including novel light sources, sensing, and information processing. It is usually assumed that nonlinear frequency conversion requires large crystals that gradually accumulate a strong effect. However, the large size of nonlinear crystals is not compatible with the miniaturisation of modern photonic and optoelectronic systems. Therefore, shrinking the nonlinear structures down to the nanoscale, while keeping favourable conversion efficiencies, is of great importance for future photonics applications. In the last decade, researchers have studied the strategies for enhancing the nonlinear efficiencies at the nanoscale, e.g. by employing different nonlinear materials, resonant couplings and hybridization techniques. In this paper, we provide a compact review of the nanomaterials-based efforts, ranging from metal to dielectric and semiconductor nanostructures, including their relevant nanofabrication techniques.

• Good quality GaN film fabricated by MOCVD is confirmed via FESEM, EDS, AFM, XRD, UV–Vis and PL analysis. • Z-scan reveals the nonlinear absorption and nonlinear refraction properties of GaN thin film via 440 nm, 637 nm and 808 nm laser. • We detected a reversal of polarity of the nonlinear refractive index, n 2 at 637 nm and 405 nm of CW laser excitation and femtosecond laser pulse at 808 nm. • Novel all-optical dual beam switching scheme based on n 2 sign switchover of GaN is proposed. Gallium Nitride (GaN) is fast becoming a potential replacement for silicon in complex electronic and photonics circuitries and systems. At higher optical intensity, optical effects such as non-linear effects would become non-trivial. To this end, we investigated nonlinear optical properties of metal–organic chemical vapor deposited GaN. Specifically, continuous-wave laser Z-scan techniques were employed to obtain nonlinear refractive index, n 2 , of a 1-µm thin layer on a c-plane sapphire substrate. FESEM, PL, XRD and EDS analysis confirmed the good quality growth of GaN thin film. We detected a reversal of polarity of the n 2 value at 637 nm and 405 nm of CW laser excitation and femtosecond laser pulse at 808 nm. This is substantiated by theoretical calculation of GaN's n 2 showing sign switchover at wavelength shorter than 420 nm. This presents a new all-optical switching scheme based on the switchover of wavelength dependent n 2. These findings point to opportunities for GaN-based integrated photonics for nonlinear and quantum photonics applications. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Achieving efficient localization of white light at the nanoscale is a major challenge due to the diffraction limit, and nanoscale emitters generating light with a broadband spectrum require complicated engineering. Here we suggest a simple, yet highly efficient, nanoscale white-light source based on a hybrid Si/Au nanoparticle with ultrabroadband (1.3-3.4 eV) spectral characteristics. We incorporate this novel source into a scanning-probe microscope and observe broadband spectrum of photoluminescence that allows fast mapping of local optical response of advanced nanophotonic structures with submicron resolution, thus realizing ultrabroadband near-field nanospectroscopy.

Nonlinear effects at the nanoscale are usually associated with the enhancement of electric fields in plasmonic structures. Recently emerged new platform for nanophotonics based on high-index dielectric nanoparticles utilizes optically induced magnetic response via multipolar Mie resonances and provides novel opportunities for nanoscale nonlinear optics. Here, we observe strong second-harmonic generation from AlGaAs nanoantennas driven by both electric and magnetic resonances. We distinguish experimentally the contribution of electric and magnetic nonlinear response by analyzing the structure of polarization states of vector beams in the second-harmonic radiation. We control continuously the transition between electric and magnetic nonlinearities by tuning polarization of the optical pump. Our results provide a direct observation of nonlinear optical magnetism through selective excitation of multipolar nonlinear modes in nanoantennas. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Recent trends to employ high-index dielectric particles in nanophotonics are motivated by their reduced dissipative losses and large resonant enhancement of nonlinear effects at the nanoscale. Because silicon is a centrosymmetric material, the studies of nonlinear optical properties of silicon nanoparticles have been targeting primarily the third-harmonic generation effects. Here we demonstrate, both experimentally and theoretically, that resonantly excited nanocrystalline silicon nanoparticles fabricated by an optimized laser printing technique can exhibit strong second-harmonic generation (SHG) effects. We attribute an unexpectedly high yield of the nonlinear conversion to a nanocrystalline structure of nanoparticles supporting the Mie resonances. The demonstrated efficient SHG at green light from a single silicon nanoparticle is 2 orders of magnitude higher than that from unstructured silicon films. This efficiency is significantly higher than that of many plasmonic nanostructures and small silicon nanoparticles in the visible range, and it can be useful for a design of nonlinear nanoantennas and silicon-based integrated light sources.

There has been an urgent need to eliminate toxic lead from the popular halide perovskite for various photonics and optoelectronics applications. This is added by the use of dangerous and environment unfriendly chemical during the wet synthesis route. Herein we demonstrate the synthesis of lead-free halide perovskite – (PhA)BiI 4 (phenylammonium tetraiodobismates) and PhABiBr 4 (phenylammonium tetrabromobismates) quantum dots (QDs) in room ambient environment using eco-friendly solvent - Ethanol. FESEM-EDX analysis of PhABiI 4 and PhABiBr 4 confirm the 1:4 atomic ratio of Bi:I and Bi:Br. As revealed by HRTEM, the as-prepared PhABiI 4 indicate the formation of QDs with sizes smaller than 10 nm. Similar morphology was observed for PhABiBr 4 QDs, but smaller in size compared to PhABiI 4. High optical transparency was observed, and optical bandgap was measured for both PhABiI 4 and PhABiBr 4 QDs at 2.25 eV for and 3.07 eV, respectively. Chromaticity studies under 365 nm irradiation reveal a bright cyan emission for the PhABiI 4 and bright blue emission for the PhABiBr 4 QDs. Large magnitude of nonlinear optical susceptibility, |χ(3)| were calculated in the order of 10−6 esu. The green and facile synthesis approach reported here represents an alternate avenue for the new applications of Bi-based perovskite particularly towards the next-generation nanophotonics technologies. • Synthesis of lead-free halide perovskite: PhABiI 4 and PhABiBr 4 quantum dots in ambient environment were demonstrated. • HRTEM indicates the formation of quantum dots with sizes smaller than 10 nm for both compounds. • High optical transparency was observed, and optical bandgap was measured for both compounds at 2.25 eV for and 3.07 eV, respectively. • Chromaticity studies reveal a bright cyan emission for the PhABiI 4 and bright blue emission for the PhABiBr 4 QDs. • Large magnitude of nonlinear optical susceptibility, |χ(3)| were calculated in the order of 10-6 esu.

In this paper, we review various numerical methods currently used to model nonlinear optical processes in nanophotonics. Among the different theoretical frameworks that have been used to study nonlinear photonic structures, we particularly focus on the application of both perturbation theory and coupled-mode theory to the analysis of complex nonlinear nanophotonic devices. This description is illustrated on several examples of how these techniques can be used to design photonic-crystal-based nonlinear devices. In addition, in all these examples, we show that the predictions made by the two mentioned techniques are in a good agreement with the numerical results obtained from a nonlinear finite-difference-time-domain approach to these problems.

Engineering of nonlinear optical response in nanostructures is one of the key topics in nanophotonics, as it allows for broad frequency conversion at the nanoscale. Nevertheless, the application of the developed designs is limited by either high cost of their manufacturing or low conversion efficiencies. This paper reports on the efficient second-harmonic generation in a free-standing GaP nanowire array encapsulated in a polymer membrane. Light coupling with optical resonances and field confinement in the nanowires together with high nonlinearity of GaP material yield a strong second-harmonic signal and efficient near-infrared (800-1200 nm) to visible upconversion. The fabricated nanowire-based membranes demonstrate high flexibility and semitransparency for the incident infrared radiation, allowing utilizing them for infrared imaging, which can be easily integrated into different optical schemes without disturbing the visualized beam.

Resonant dielectric structures have emerged recently as a new platform for subwavelength nonplasmonic photonics. It was suggested and demonstrated that magnetic and electric Mie resonances can enhance substantially many effects at the nanoscale including spontaneous Raman scattering. Here, we demonstrate stimulated Raman scattering (SRS) for isolated crystalline silicon (c-Si) nanoparticles and observe experimentally a transition from spontaneous to stimulated scattering manifested in a nonlinear growth of the signal intensity above a certain pump threshold. At the Mie resonance, the light gets confined into a low volume of the resonant mode with enhanced electromagnetic fields inside the c-Si nanoparticle due to its high refractive index, which leads to an overall strong SRS signal at low pump intensities. Our finding paves the way for the development of efficient Raman nanolasers for multifunctional photonic metadevices.

Dynamical tuning of the nonlinear optical wavefront allows for a specific spectral response of predefined profiles, enabling various applications of nonlinear nanophotonics. This study experimentally demonstrates the dynamical switching of images generated by an ultrathin silicon nonlinear metasurface supporting a high‐quality leaky mode, which is formed by partially breaking a bound‐state‐in‐the‐continuum (BIC) generated by the collective magnetic dipole (MD) resonance excited in the subdiffractive periodic systems. Such a quasi‐BIC MD state can be excited directly under normal plane wave incidence and leads to a strong near‐field enhancement to further boost the nonlinear process, resulting in a 500‐fold enhancement of the third‐harmonic emission experimentally. Due to sharp spectral features and asymmetry of the unit cell, it allows for effective tailoring of the nonlinear emissions over spectral or polarization responses. Dynamical nonlinear image tuning is experimentally demonstarted via polarization and wavelength control. The results pave the way for nanophotonics applications such as tunable displays, nonlinear holograms, tunable nanolaser, and ultrathin nonlinear nanodevices with various functionalities.
