Capturing Broadband Light in a Compact Bound State in the Continuum
Trapping and storing light for arbitrary time lengths in open cavities is a major goal of nanophotonics, with potential applications ranging from energy harvesting to optical information processing. Unfortunately, however, the resonance lifetime of conventional open resonators remains finite, even in the limit of vanishing material absorption, as a result …
