The ability to engineer localized surface plasmon resonances at large scale usually relies on precise nanoscale patterning. Here, we demonstrate that mid-infrared plasmonic responses can instead emerge in unpatterned polysilicon films…
Surface plasmon resonances (SPRs) are crucial for confining light beyond the diffraction limit, yet heavy metal losses often limit their spectral localization. Here, we propose a practical strategy for enabling the spectral localization of…
The emerging optical multiplexing within nanoscale shows super-capacity in encoding information by using the time-domain fingerprints from uniform nanoparticles. However, the optical diffraction limit compromises the decoding throughput and…
Conventional spectrometers are limited by trade-offs set by size, cost, signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), and spectral resolution. Here, we demonstrate a deep learning-based spectral reconstruction framework, using a compact and low-cost on-chip…
The use of photo-activated fluorescent molecules to create long sequences of low emitter-density diffraction-limited images enables high-precision emitter localization, but at the cost of low temporal resolution. We suggest combining…
Label-free observation of nanoparticles by far-field optical microscopy is challenging because their ability to scatter or absorb light dramatically diminishes with decreasing size. Surface plasmon resonance (SPR) and localized surface…
Our visual perception of our surroundings is ultimately limited by the diffraction limit, which stipulates that optical information smaller than roughly half the illumination wavelength is not retrievable. Over the past decades, many…

Imaging below the diffraction limit is always a public interest because of the restricted resolution of conventional imaging systems. To beat the limit, evanescent harmonics decaying in space must participate in the imaging process. Here,…
Hyperspectral sensors capture dense spectra per pixel but suffer from low spatial resolution, causing blurred boundaries and mixed-pixel effects. Co-registered companion sensors such as multispectral, RGB, or panchromatic cameras provide…

Particle plasmons in metal nanoparticles have primarily been investigated through the use of local optical response approximations. However, as nanoparticle size approaches the average distance of electrons to the metal surface, mesoscopic…
Speckles arise when coherent light interacts with biological tissues. Information retrieval from speckles is desired yet challenging, requiring understanding or mapping of the multiple scattering process, or reliable capability to reverse…
