摘要

Abstract

Temporal modulations in photonics bring many exotic optical phenomena in the time dimension while metamaterials provide powerful ways in manipulating light in the spatial domain. The authors envision the connection, Floquet Metamaterials, may deliver novel opportunities in nanophotonics.
