Metasurfaces play a key role in functionalizing light at the nanoscale. Existing dielectric metasurfaces, however, are often limited to geometric primitives and their usage in emergent hybrid metasurfaces is hampered as confinement of light…

Classical electrodynamics describes the optical response of systems using bulk electronic properties and infinitesimally thin boundaries. However, due to the quantum nature of electrons, interfaces have a finite thickness. Non-classical…
