摘要

Abstract

Nonlinear optical metasurfaces

which relax the phase-matching constraints of bulk nonlinear crystals and allow for precise engineering

are opening new possibilities in the field of quantum photonics. Recent advancements have experimentally demonstrated high-resolution 2D imaging using a 1D detector array by combining quantum ghost imaging and all-optical scanning with spatially entangled photon pairs generated from a nonlinear metasurface. These findings establish metasurfaces as a promising platform for quantum imaging

communications

and sensing applications.
