Abstract
We report a strategy for preparing cost-effective plasmonic square lattices with tunable unit structures of circles, crosses, and circle-cross pairs on a centimeter scale. The asymmetrical electromagnetic (EM) field distribution of the lattice enhances second harmonic generation (SHG) under oblique incidence. The SHG signals are progressively strengthened as the unit symmetry decreases from C∞v (circle) to C4v (cross) to C2v (circle-cross pair). The peak SHG signal is observed from the plasmonic lattice with a circle-cross pair, showcasing a conversion efficiency of 1.0 × 10-2, which is a 7.3-fold enhancement relative to the dielectric lattice comprised of circle units. This notably high conversion efficiency of SHG is on par with that of phase-matched bulk nanostructures under normal incidence, benefiting from the Bloch-surface plasmon polariton (Bloch-SPP) modes associated with the distribution of the photonic local density of states (LDOS). Furthermore, the SHG emission exhibits distinctive directional and polarization characteristics as the unit symmetry is reduced. This work offers valuable insights into a structural symmetry-dependent SHG in plasmonic lattices and the way forward for the design of functional nonlinear plasmonic devices.

Abstract
Two-dimensional (2D) materials including graphene, transition metal dichalcogenides, black phosphorus, MXenes, and semimetals have attracted extensive and widespread interest over the past years for their many intriguing properties and phenomena, underlying physics, and great potential for applications. The vast library of 2D materials and their heterostructures provides a diverse range of electrical, photonic, mechanical, and chemical properties with boundless opportunities for photonics and plasmonic devices. The infrared (IR) regime, with wavelengths across 0.78 μm to 1000 μm, has particular technological significance in industrial, military, commercial, and medical settings while facing challenges especially in the limit of materials. Here, we present a comprehensive review of the varied approaches taken to leverage the properties of the 2D materials for IR applications in photodetection and sensing, light emission and modulation, surface plasmon and phonon polaritons, non-linear optics, and Smith-Purcell radiation, among others. The strategies examined include the growth and processing of 2D materials, the use of various 2D materials like semiconductors, semimetals, Weyl-semimetals and 2D heterostructures or mixed-dimensional hybrid structures, and the engineering of light-matter interactions through nanophotonics, metasurfaces, and 2D polaritons. Finally, we give an outlook on the challenges in realizing high-performance and ambient-stable devices and the prospects for future research and large-scale commercial applications.

Abstract
Transition-metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) have demonstrated a wide range of novel photonic, optoelectronic, and correlated electron phenomena for more than a decade. However, the coherent dynamics of their excitons, including possibly long dephasing times and their sensitivity to spatial heterogeneities, are still poorly understood. Here we implement adiabatic plasmonic nanofocused four-wave mixing (FWM) to image the coherent electron dynamics in monolayer WSe2. We observe nanoscale heterogeneities at room temperature with dephasing ranging from T2 ≲ 5 to T2 ≳ 60 fs on length scales of 50-100 nm. We further observe a counterintuitive anticorrelation between FWM intensity and T2, with the weakest FWM emission at locations of longest coherence. We interpret this behavior as a nonlocal nano-optical interplay between spatial coherence of the nonlinear polarization and disorder-induced scattering. The results highlight the challenges associated with heterogeneities in TMDs limiting their photophysical properties, yet also the potential of their novel nonlinear optical phenomena.

Abstract
The urgent demand for atomically thin, superlubricating, and super wear-resistant materials in micro/nanoelectromechanical systems has stimulated the research of friction-reducing and antiwear materials. However, the fabrication of subnanometer-thick films with superlubricating and super wear-resistant properties under ambient conditions remains a huge challenge. Herein, high-quality monolayer (ML) NbSe2 (∼0.8 nm) with ultralow friction and super wear resistance in an atmospheric environment was successfully grown by chemical vapor deposition (CVD) for the first time. Moreover, compared with few-layered (FL) NbSe2, ML NbSe2 has a lower friction coefficient and better wear resistance. On the basis of density function theory (DFT) calculations, the adhesion and the degree of charge transfer between ML NbSe2 and the substrate is larger than that of the topmost layer to the underlying layers of NbSe2 with two or more layers, which can be used to explain that the ML NbSe2 favors ultralow friction and super wear resistance.

Abstract
The ever-growing demand for faster and more efficient data transfer and processing has brought optical computation strategies to the forefront of research in next-generation computing. Here, we report a universal computing approach with the chirality degree of freedom. By exploiting the crystal symmetry-enabled well-known chiral selection rules, we demonstrate the viability of the concept in bulk silica crystals and atomically thin semiconductors and create ultrafast (<100-fs) all-optical chirality logic gates (XNOR, NOR, AND, XOR, OR, and NAND) and a half adder. We also validate the unique advantages of chirality gates by realizing multiple gates with simultaneous operation in a single device and electrical control. Our first demonstrations of logic gates using chiral selection rules suggest that optical chirality could provide a powerful degree of freedom for future optical computing.

Abstract
Gold nanorods (AuNRs) possess a high optical nonlinear coefficient, ultrafast optical response speed and widely tunable localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) wavelength covering the visible and near infrared region. Therefore, they are extensively investigated for many optical applications. However, the poor thermal stability of the AuNRs seriously restricts their practical performance. In addition, for many applications, such as optical communication or laser modulation, AuNRs have to be combined with transparent solids, for example polymers, glass or crystals to make devices. Here, we report on the preparation of 0.23 mg AuNR dispersed methyl silicone resin (MSR) with longitudinal LSPR (L-LSPR) wavelength (1450 nm) in the optical communication window. We found that AuNR-silicone composites possess high thermal stability. After calcination in ambient environment at a temperature of 250 °C for 10 h, the L-LSPR peak of the sample can remain longer than 1380 nm, implying that the NR shape of the Au particles was well maintained. Using the open-aperture Z-scan technique, the nonlinear absorption coefficient of the composites was measured as -11.71 cm GW-1, higher than many nonlinear materials. Thus, the thermally stable AuNR@SiO2-MSR composite with high nonlinearity is promising for practical applications in the optical communication window.

Abstract
Mixed-dimensional heterostructures combine the merits of materials of different dimensions; therefore, they represent an advantageous scenario for numerous technological advances. Such an approach can be exploited to tune the physical properties of two-dimensional (2D) layered materials to create unprecedented possibilities for anisotropic and high-performance photonic and optoelectronic devices. Here, we report a new strategy to engineer the light-matter interaction and symmetry of monolayer MoS2 by integrating it with one-dimensional (1D) AlGaAs nanowire (NW). Our results show that the photoluminescence (PL) intensity of MoS2 increases strongly in the mixed-dimensional structure because of electromagnetic field confinement in the 1D high refractive index semiconducting NW. Interestingly, the 1D NW breaks the 3-fold rotational symmetry of MoS2, which leads to a strong optical anisotropy of up to ∼60%. Our mixed-dimensional heterostructure-based phototransistors benefit from this and exhibit an improved optoelectronic device performance with marked anisotropic photoresponse behavior. Compared with bare MoS2 devices, our MoS2/NW devices show ∼5 times enhanced detectivity and ∼3 times higher photoresponsivity. Our results of engineering light-matter interaction and symmetry breaking provide a simple route to induce enhanced and anisotropic functionalities in 2D materials.

Abstract
The outstanding chemical and physical properties of 2D materials, together with their atomically thin nature, make them ideal candidates for metaphotonic device integration and construction, which requires deep subwavelength light-matter interaction to achieve optical functionalities beyond conventional optical phenomena observed in naturally available materials. In addition to their intrinsic properties, the possibility to further manipulate the properties of 2D materials via chemical or physical engineering dramatically enhances their capability, evoking new science on light-matter interaction, leading to leaped performance of existing functional devices and giving birth to new metaphotonic devices that were unattainable previously. Comprehensive understanding of the intrinsic properties of 2D materials, approaches and capabilities for chemical and physical engineering methods, the resulting property modifications and novel functionalities, and applications of metaphotonic devices are provided in this review. Through reviewing the detailed progress in each aspect and the state-of-the-art achievement, insightful analyses of the outstanding challenges and future directions are elucidated in this cross-disciplinary comprehensive review with the aim to provide an overall development picture in the field of 2D material metaphotonics and promote rapid progress in this fast emerging and prosperous field.

Abstract
Plasmonic nanostructures provide a new way to improve nonlinear optical effects. As a mode of surface plasmons (SP), localized SPs can highly localize and enhance electromagnetic fields within a subwavelength volume. In this work, we developed a one-dimensional V-groove Ag nanograting. Through simulation, we realized triple-resonance enhanced four-wave mixing (FWM), in which both the excitation and signal waves are in resonance with LSPRs modified by propagating SPs, and can perfectly overlap with each other in each single nanogroove. Compared with that from a flat Ag plate, the FWM enhancement factor can be over six orders of magnitude. Next, we filled the Ag V-groove with nonlinear polymer 2-methoxy-5-(2-ethylhexyloxy)-1,4-phenylenevinylene and further improved the enhancement factor to eight orders of magnitude, together with a conversion efficiency of 1.02×10-2. Finally, by changing the water filling ratio, the FWM signal is tuned over 180 nm, while keeping the enhancement factor over seven orders of magnitude.
