  • Optical computing requires physical space to process waves. Here, the authors establish spatial scaling laws—linking device size to the dimension of mathematical operations—and propose space-efficient design paradigms for neuromorphic free-space optics and photonic chips.

  • Using resonant structures can enhance one of the key features of photonic time crystals while easing practical challenges, bringing their realization at optical frequencies closer to reality and unlocking potential applications in light amplification and next-generation photonic technologies.

  • Lumped circuit elements provide a simple tool to design complex electronic systems; a similar approach has been proposed for nanophotonics. Here, the authors demonstrate the modularized design and assembly of photonic nanocircuits using metal and dielectric nanoparticles as the constituent lumped elements.

  • Optical and wave-based computing is attracting renewed interest, motivated by the need for new platforms for resource-intensive special-purpose processing tasks. Here, we discuss whether, why, and how metamaterials and metasurfaces could contribute to achieving an ‘optical advantage’ in computing.

  • The usual treatment of wave scattering theory relies on a formalism that does not easily allow for probing optimal spectral response. Here, the authors show how an alternative formalism, encoding fundamental principles of causality and passivity, can be used to make sense of complex scattered fields’ structures.

  • Nonlocal effects—in which the optical response of a system at a given spatial point depends on the field in the surrounding space—are reviewed in the context of metasurfaces and flat optics. Nonlocal flat optics may be useful for controlling light in ultra-thin platforms.

  • Unidirectional and topological surface plasmon polaritons are currently attracting substantial interest and intense debate. Realistic material models and energy conservation considerations are essential to correctly understand extreme wave effects in non-reciprocal plasmonics, and to assess their potential for novel devices.
