Expanding the Photonic Palette: Exploring High Index Materials
An entertaining and provocative article on why we should care about broadening the palette of high refractive index materials and where we might find them.
While graphene is singled out as the "king" of exotic materials with limited practical applications in optics and photonics, it is worth emphasizing that the huge interest in graphene has been a source of funding, techniques, and inspiration for studies of related quasi-2D materials. Among these, transition metal dichalcogenides seem quite promising for photonics applications including high index metasurfaces.
Thanks to nanoscale views for making me aware of this article.
