Narrowband resonance plays an important role in many optical applications, especially for the development of wavelength-selective properties and enhanced light-matter interaction. In this paper, we demonstrate metal-insulator-metal (MIM) waveguide gratings, which exhibit guided-mode resonance (GMR) with reduced bandwidth in mid-infrared absorption and thermal emission. Our fabricated MIM waveguide grating consists of a copper substrate, a lossless ZnSe film, and a top gold stripe grating. Our measurements reveal strong GMRs with a bandwidth of 1.29% of the central wavelength in both mid-infrared absorption and thermal emission spectra. By varying structural parameters of the MIM waveguide grating, strong absorptions and thermal emissions of GMRs are observed and tuned within the 3-5 µm wavelength range. These results manifest the great potential of engineering infrared properties by using GMR and could be useful for spectral control in a variety of infrared devices.

MXenes are two-dimensional (2D) materials with versatile applications in optoelectronics, batteries, and catalysis. To unlock their full potential, it is crucial to characterize MXene interfaces and intercalated species in more detail than is currently possible with conventional optical spectroscopies. Here, we combine ultra-broadband ellipsometry and transmission spectroscopy from the mid-infrared (IR) to the deep-ultraviolet (UV) to probe quantitatively the composition, structure, transport, and optical properties of spray-coated TiCT MXene thin films with varying material properties.

We have recorded the gas phase spectrum of isoprene at room temperature from the mid-infrared range and into the visible range (600 cm to 17050 cm). Absorption spectra were obtained by Fourier transform infrared, conventional dispersion ultraviolet-visible-near-infrared and cavity ring-down spectroscopy to cover the entire range with a resolution comparable to that of the instruments on the James Webb Space Telescope. We have assigned the CH-stretching fundamental and overtone bands corresponding to the Δv=1-6 transitions based on anharmonic vibrational calculations using normal mode and local mode models, for the lower- and higher-energy regions, respectively.

The integration of mid-infrared (MIR) photodetectors with built-in encryption capabilities holds immense promise for advancing secure communications in decentralized networks and compact sensing systems. However, achieving high sensitivity, self-powered operation, and reliable performance at room temperature within a miniaturized form factor remains a formidable challenge, largely due to constraints in MIR light absorption and the intricacies of embedding encryption at the device level. Here, a novel on-chip metamaterial-enhanced, 2D tantalum nickel selenide (Ta₂NiSe₅)-based photodetector, meticulously designed with a custom-engineered plasmonic resonance microstructure to achieve self-powered photodetection in the nanoampere range is unveiled.

In this work, we propose a novel suspended slot membrane waveguide (SSMW) utilizing a germanium-on-silicon-on-insulator (Ge-on-SOI) platform for carbon dioxide (CO) gas-sensing applications. The design and analysis focus on the absorption line of CO in the mid-infrared region, specifically at a wavelength of 4.23 µm.
