Densely interconnected, nonlinear, and reconfigurable optical networks represent a route to high-performance optical computing, communications, and sensing technologies. Dielectric nanoantennas are promising building blocks for such architectures since they can precisely control optical diffraction. However, they are traditionally limited in their nonlinear and reconfigurable responses owing to their relatively low-quality factor (Q-factor). Here, we highlight new and emerging design strategies to increase the Q-factor while maintaining control of optical diffraction, enabling unprecedented spatial and temporal control of light. We describe how multipolar modes and bound states in the continuum increase Q and show how these high-Q nanoantennas can be cascaded to create almost limitless resonant optical transfer functions. With high-Q nanoantennas, new paradigms in reconfigurable wavefront-shaping, low-noise, multiplexed biosensors and quantum transduction are possible. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
