Ultrafast low-pump fluence all-optical modulation based on graphene-metal hybrid metasurfaces
Ultrafast low-pump fluence all-optical modulation for near and mid-infrared wavelengths is demonstrated by enhancing the interaction between graphene and pump/probe light in the nanoscale “hot spots” of graphene-plasmonic hybrid metasurfaces.

Lanthanide doped lead-free double perovskites as the promising next generation ultra-broadband light sources
Efficient ultra-broadband emitter is realized by using multi-Ln-doped Cs2Ag(In/Bi)Cl6 lead-free double perovskite (DP) coupled with “DPs-in-glass composite” (DiG) structure. The synergy of self-trapped exciton together with the energy transition induces this ultra-broadband emission emerge.
