This $450,000 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Electrical, Communications and Cyber Systems, under the NSF Engineering (CFDA 47.041) program, will fund research by Duke University on "Magnetic Resonances in Nonlinear Dielectric Nanostructures: New Light-Matter Interactions and Machine Learning Enhanced Design." The project aims to discover new light-matter interactions originating from the effect of magnetic field enhancement in low-loss nonmagnetic dielectrics, as well as hybrid metamaterials made of strongly nonlinear glasses and magnetic materials designed using physics-based machine learning approaches. The research will focus on theoretically and numerically investigating the contribution of intrinsic nonlinear optical processes due to the magnetic portion of the Lorentz force, enhancing nonlinear light-matter interactions via techniques like Mie and guided-mode resonances, and investigating the potential for enhanced nonlinear frequency conversion in stacked metasurfaces and multilayer structures. This award will enable Duke University to advance the fundamental science of nonlinear light-matter interactions and likely enable new approaches for applications in areas like light generation, modulation, magnetometry, and sensing.
