In optical imaging, achieving high resolution often comes at the expense of a shallow depth of field. This means that when using a standard microscope, any minor movement of the object along the optical axis can cause the image to become…
Metallic nanostructures provide a toolkit for the generation of coherent light below the diffraction limit. Plasmonic based lasing relies on the population inversion of emitters (such as organic fluorophores) along with feedback provided by…
Optical metasurfaces, comprised of subwavelength nanostructures, hold a great promise to high-power laser optics but also a limited pertinence due to their currently limited aperture size, throughput and durability. Here, an alternative…

Metal-coated microsphere monolayers (MCM) are a class of plasmonic crystals consisting of noble metal films over arrays of self-assembled colloidal microspheres. Despite their ease of fabrication and tunable plasmonic response, their…
We demonstrate theoretically that a subwavelength spherical dielectric nanoparticle coated with a gain shell forms a nanolaser. Lasing modes of such a nanolaser are associated with the Mie resonances of the nanoparticle. We establish a…
