DESCRIPTION:In recent years, significant interest has emerged in the inverse design1 of\nartificial layered heterostructures for photonic applications2. Specifically, the unique optical properties of nearzero permittivity (ENZ) metamaterials have enabled the exploration of novel physical effects and mechanisms. In this presentation, I will focus into how thin film photonics\nharnesses the potential of Fano resonances3-5. By layering metaldielectric thin films, we can create a distinct type of optical coating that exhibits photonic Fano resonance, referred to as a Fano-resonant optical coating (FROC). We extend the concept of coupled mechanical oscillators to thin-film nanocavities, shedding light on semi-transparent FROCs that\ncan both transmit and reflect the same color, akin to a beam splitter filter. This remarkable property is beyond the capabilities of conventional optical coatings.\n\nREFERENCES\n[1] Lininger, A., Hinczewski, M., & Strangi, G. “General Inverse Design of Layered Thin-Film Materials with Convolutional Neural Networks”.
