Above-light-line surface plasmon polaritons can arise at the interface between a metal and epsilon-near-zero metamaterial. This unique feature induces unusual fast-wave non-radiative modes in a epsilon-near-zero material/metal bilayer.…

A coherent perfect absorber is capable of completely absorbing input waves. However, the coherent perfect absorption severely depends on the superposition of the input waves, and the perfect absorption is sensitive to the disorder of the…
Bimodal Fabry-P\'erot interferometer is a model generalizing the conventional Fabry-P\'erot interferometer, in which not one but two kinds of waves propagate between the interfaces. Here, we study coherent perfect absorption (CPA) and…
