“…Typical optoelectronic devices have been successfully designed and demonstrated the critical role of micro-/nano-structures. Significantly, new photoelectric applications, such as photoelectric dichroism, have been proposed and fabricated by laser technology based on various materials ( Drevinskas et al, 2015 ; Jiang et al, 2020 ; Kuroiwa and Tatsuma, 2020 ; Zou et al, 2021a ; Zou et al, 2021b ; Xuan et al, 2021 ). Although successful works have demonstrated the distinguish characters, the efficiency of laser processing materials needs to improve, which benefits device preparation efficiency.…”

“…Nanophotonic components have recently revolutionized the field of optics via metamaterials/metasurfaces by enabling the arbitrary manipulation of light-matter interactions with subwavelength meta-atoms or meta-molecules. 20 , 21 , 22 The conventional design of such components involves generally forward modeling, i.e., solving Maxwell's equations based on empirical and intuitive nanostructures to find corresponding optical properties, as well as the inverse design of nanophotonic devices given an on-demand optical response. The trans-dimensional feature of macro-optical components consisting of complex nano-antennas makes the design process very time consuming, computationally expensive, and even numerically prohibitive, such as device size and complexity increase.…”

Artificial intelligence (AI) coupled with promising machine learning (ML) techniques well known from computer science is broadly affecting many aspects of various fields including science and technology, industry, and even our day-to-day life. The ML techniques have been developed to analyze high-throughput data with a view to obtaining useful insights, categorizing, predicting, and making evidence-based decisions in novel ways, which will promote the growth of novel applications and fuel the sustainable booming of AI. This paper undertakes a comprehensive survey on the development and application of AI in different aspects of fundamental sciences, including information science, mathematics, medical science, materials science, geoscience, life science, physics, and chemistry. The challenges that each discipline of science meets, and the potentials of AI techniques to handle these challenges, are discussed in detail. Moreover, we shed light on new research trends entailing the integration of AI into each scientific discipline. The aim of this paper is to provide a broad research guideline on fundamental sciences with potential infusion of AI, to help motivate researchers to deeply understand the state-of-the-art applications of AI-based fundamental sciences, and thereby to help promote the continuous development of these fundamental sciences.

“…Metamaterials' electromagnetic properties are described based on the effective parameters. This characteristic gives metamaterials great potential in a variety of applications including light manipulation [1][2][3] , imaging [4][5][6] , sensing [7][8][9] , super-lenses 10,11 and several other processes, among which field-metamaterial perfect absorbers (MPAs) have been a topic of considerable research interest in recent years. MPAs generally consist of metal and dielectric elements with dynamic control features of only subwavelength thicknesses.…”

Ultra-broadband metamaterial absorbers from long to very long infrared regime

Broadband metamaterials absorbers with high absorption, ultrathin thickness and easy configurations are in great demand for many potential applications. In this paper, we first analyse the coupling resonances in a Ti/Ge/Ti three-layer absorber, which can realise broadband absorption from 8 to 12 μm. Then we experimentally demonstrate two types of absorbers based on the Ti/Ge/Si3N4/Ti configuration. By taking advantage of coupling surface plasmon resonances and intrinsic absorption of lossy material Si3N4, the average absorptions of two types of absorbers achieve almost 95% from 8 to 14 μm (experiment result: 78% from 6.5 to 13.5 μm). In order to expand the absorption bandwidth, we further propose two Ti/Si/SiO2/Ti absorbers which can absorb 92% and 87% of ultra-broadband light in the 14–30 μm and 8–30 μm spectral range, respectively. Our findings establish general and systematic strategies for guiding the design of metamaterial absorbers with excellent broadband absorption and pave the way for enhancing the optical performance in applications of infrared thermal emitters, imaging and photodetectors.
