All-dielectric metamaterials and metasurfaces have been demonstrated as ideal platforms to
manipulate electromagnetic waves and enhance light–matter interaction. Analogous to …

Bound states in the continuum (BICs) have attracted attention in photonics owing to their
interesting properties. For example, BICs can effectively confine light in a counterintuitive …

The introduction of bound states in the continuum (BICs) to photonics has revolutionized the
way cavity design and light–matter interactions are thought about in general. BICs can have …

From theoretical model to experimental realization, the bound state in the continuum (BIC) is
an emerging area of research interest in the last decade. In the initial years, well-established …

A quasi-bound state in the continuum (QBIC) has unique attraction in optical switch,
nonlinearity, communication, and sensing due to its ultrahigh radiation quality (Q) factor. The …

Lithium niobate (LiNbO3 or LN) is a well-known multifunctional crystal that has been widely
applied in various areas of photonics, electronics, and optoelectronics. In the past …

I review the four mechanisms of bound states in the continuum (BICs) in the application of
microwave and acoustic cavities open to directional waveguides. The most simple are …

Symmetry-protected bound states in the continuum (BICs) are nonradiative states with
infinite lifetime and perfect confinement of energy even though lying in the radiation …

We discuss the recent advances in meta-optics and nanophotonics associated with the
physics of bound states in the continuum (BICs). Such resonant states appear due to a …

Thanks to advanced semiconductor microfabrication technology, chip-scale integration and
miniaturization of lab-on-a-chip components, silicon-based optical biosensors have made …
