All-dielectric Mie-resonant metaphotonics

Abstract

All-dielectric subwavelength structures made of high-refractive-index materials combine a unique set of advantages in comparison with their plasmonic counterparts. In particular, they can interact resonantly with light through the excitation of both electric and magnetic multipolar Mie-type resonances. This review discusses novel approaches to manipulate light with Mie-resonant dielectric subwavelength structures, spanning from individual nanoparticles to metasurfaces, and covering a broad range of effects, from near-field energy enhancement to far-field beam shaping.
