Abstract: Plasmonic nanostructures with their unique ability in confining strong electromagnetic fields into subwavelength regions have led to a great diversity of applications. We have utilized various designs to study plasmonic thermal emitters and surface-enhanced Raman scattering substrates. Recently, optical resonator arrays with spatially varying geometry and subwavelength separation known as metasurfaces demonstrate additional degree of freedom to accomplish polarization control and wavefront shaping. We employed integrated resonant units designs, which combine multi-nanorod configuration into one unit cell, to develop a broadband high efficiency polarized beam splitting metagrating working in the near infrared. Recently, the low-loss and high-index dielectric nanostructures provide an alternative platform to support multipolar resonances. The interference of multipolar modes leads to high quality-factor Fano resonances or quasi-bound states in the continuum, which are promising for the applications of refractive-index sensing and nonlinear optics.
