Summary
Nontechnical Description Remarkable advances in communications, computing, and sensing have been achieved by precise control of interactions between light and matter through photonic metamaterials. These are engineered optical materials that manipulate light through nanoscale structures. However, these materials are reaching their fundamental limits. Future technologies will need access to the molecular and quantum interactions to control optical behavior. This CAREER project establishes a fundamentally different approach. The PI will create a new class of photonic metamaterials in which op
