Just out our joint paper with UniBS and @ethz.ch on GHz speed modulation of linear and nonlinear light with a lithium niobate metasurface! Thanks @agostino.bsky.social @attilio-zilli.bsky.social @rachelgrange.bsky.social & the ETH team for this awesome collaboration. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Efficient GHz electro-optical modulation with a nonlocal lithium niobate metasurface in the linear and nonlinear regime - Nature Communications
A lithium niobate nonlocal metasurface with high-Q (~8000) resonances demonstrates efficient GHz-rate reflectivity modulation (~0.1) and one order of magnitude second harmonic modulation using sub-10V...

The recent activity of our #Nano-optics Lab at #PoliMi (@vynisle.bsky.social, @paolobiagioni.bsky.social, and Marco Finazzi) is being showcased today at #PLASMONICA2025. Yaping Hou shows lithium niobate #metasurfaces for electro-optics. The enhancement of SHG by a qBIC was measured just few day ago!

#Nanoplasmeta2025 comes to a close. 3 intense days in the amazing Porto! Great talks. Inspiring city. In random orders: edge detection, qBIC lecture, vortexes, Fourier gratings, optical analog commuting, on the origin of photoluminescence in gold, and much more!!! @paolobiagioni.bsky.social

Finally a hint of diversity in the group! A lot to celebrate: - Chinese new year - 3 new members - 1 future member? - 1 Nano-toddler coming soon - 1 Keynote - 1 new grant (stay tuned!) Very excited!! A lot of potential...I can only mess up now. 🤪 @attilio-zilli.bsky.social

New stand-up desk... first day test was great! It is probably the novelty but I like the idea of moving around while thinking and writing.

Absolutely. Especially nowadays that company do not have the same policy for assistance as before and certainly less excellent technicians.

This one is tiny... only about 150mW average and 150fs (now 200) but the stability and reliability is incredible. The inside looks like an IWC watch! No wonder it is swissmade!!

I introduce you to the Origami laser we have been using for almost 10 years. Probably more than 30 papers, 2 Nat. Nano. NKT won't fix it. Luckily, we have a master of the cavities here at the Physics Department. Kudos to Nicola Coluccelli. Mode-locked and better mode than before!

I was just fucking around! Don't worry 😉 and again imaging that Bluesky become a big thing and the seriously consider "scatter". I can tell my children I suggested it...🤣

Il Cele @vynisle.bsky.social · 06/11/2023
Thank you. I was thinking so. If a bird tweet a bluesky... I honestly don't know. But as photonics community we should suggest the term "scattering" which can turn into "scatter"...

Il Cele @vynisle.bsky.social · 05/11/2023
True! And to tell you the truth I would be pretty disappointed that I can't see something my phone can...😅

Total blackout here... but the beauty of the stars in the sky compensate! I did not see anything like this since Australia. There are many more but the phone camera is not a single photon detector like our eyes! 😉 Photonics post of the evening...

Il Cele @vynisle.bsky.social · 04/11/2023
Fully agree. The photonics community here, among many other things like networking, is here for this purpose. Showcase any paper you find interesting and, why not, your own too! Given the huge amount of literature I always found post on X very useful cause are already filtered by someone competent!
