Enhanced Magneto-Optical Kerr Effect in Nano-Magnetic Metamaterials with Near-Perfect Coherent Absorption

Abstract The ability to control magnetic systems without external magnetic fields has attracted attention recently, with all-optical magnetic switching showing increasing promise. Gaining fine control over light-matter interactions in magnetic nanostructures is essential for adva...

Few-shot neuromorphic vision in a nonlinear photonic network laser

With the growing prevalence of artificial intelligence (AI), demand increases for hardware that mimics the brain’s ability to extract structure from limited data. In the retina, ganglion cells detect features from sparse inputs via lateral inhibition, where neurons antagonistical...
