High refractive index dielectric nanoresonators are attracting much attention due to their ability to control both electric and magnetic components of light. Due to the combination of confined modes with reduced absorption losses, they have recently been proposed as an alternative to nanoplasmonic biosensors. In this context, we study the use of semirandom silicon nanocylinder arrays, fabricated with simple and scalable colloidal lithography for the efficient and reliable detection of biomolecules in biological samples. Interestingly, electric and magnetic dipole resonances are associated with two different transduction mechanisms: extinction decrease and resonance red shift. By contrasting both observables, we identify clear advantages in tracking changes in the extinction magnitude. Our data demonstrate that, despite its simplicity, the proposed platform is able to detect prostate-specific antigen in human serum with limits of detection meeting clinical needs.

Introducing superconductivity in topological materials can lead to innovative electronic phases and device functionalities. Here, we present a unique strategy for quantum engineering of superconducting junctions in moiré materials through direct, on-chip, and fully encapsulated 2D crystal growth. We achieve robust and designable superconductivity in Pd-metalized twisted bilayer molybdenum ditelluride (MoTe) and observe anomalous superconducting effects in high-quality junctions across ~20 moiré cells.

Anisotropy is a fundamental property of both material and photonic systems. The interplay between material and photonic anisotropies, however, has hardly been explored due to the vastly different length scales. Here we demonstrate exciton polaritons in a 2D antiferromagnet, CrSBr, coupled with an anisotropic photonic crystal cavity, where the spin, atomic, and photonic anisotropies are strongly correlated.

Metamaterials hold great promise for application in the field of perfect absorbers due to their remarkable ability to manipulate electromagnetic waves. In this work, a full-spectrum ultra-wideband solar absorber with a multilayer metal-dielectric stacked structure is designed. Our absorber is simple and easy to manufacture, with Ti serving as the substrate, overlaid with SiN spacer layers and four pairs of Ti-SiN ring columns.
