We report on the fabrication of a perovskite-based ((C6H5C2H4 - NH3)2 PbI4) planar microcavity with a technique of a top dielectric mirror's migration in liquid, avoiding the degradation of the perovskite material. This approach allows for increasing the cavity Q-factor, without degrading the fragile molecular material. Strong coupling of the perovskite exciton to both the cavity mode and the first Bragg mode is evidenced from angle-resolved reflectivity and microphotoluminescence measurements at room temperature; an efficient relaxation toward the minimum of the main polariton branch is observed. The measured quality factor is significantly increased compared to previous reports where a top metallic mirror was used, showing the decisive advantage of the present fabrication technique toward the achievement of stimulated effects and polariton lasing with perovskite materials.

Chiral metasurfaces with strong chirality and high quality factors (Q-factors) have become essential components for achieving strong light-matter interactions and have a wide range of applications in chiral lasers, detectors, etc. However, current schemes primarily focus on enhancing the chiral response and Q-factor, with limited consideration of their modulability and flexibility. In this paper, we present a chiral a-Si metasurface that can support multiple symmetry-protected bound states in the continuum (BIC).

C points, circular polarization in momentum space, play crucial roles in chiral wave manipulations. However, conventional approaches of achieving intrinsic C points using photonic crystals with broken symmetries suffer from a low factor and high sensitivity to structural geometry, rendering them fragile and susceptible to perturbations and disorders. We report magneto-optical (MO) bound states in the continuum (BICs) with a symmetry-preserved planar photonic crystal.

Quantum information technology offers the potential to realize unprecedented computational resources via secure channels distributing entanglement between quantum computers. Diamond, as a host to optically-accessible spin qubits, is a leading platform to realize quantum memory nodes needed to extend such quantum links. Photonic crystal (PhC) cavities enhance light-matter interaction and are essential for an efficient interface between spins and photons that are used to store and communicate quantum information respectively.

The cavity formed between the core metal particle and the SBR supports a localized mode similar to Tamm plasmons in planar dielectric multilayers. Theoretical simulations reveal a sharp absorption peak in the SBR bandgap region, associated with this mode, together with strong local field enhancement.

Here, we demonstrate a high-quality (Q) factor Fabry-Perot microresonator (FPR) for second harmonic generation (SHG) on an x-cut thin film lithium niobate (TFLN) platform. The FPR exhibits Q factors of Q = 1.
