Recent progress in subwavelength optics is driven by the physics of optical resonances. This provides a novel platform for localization of light in subwavelength photonic structures and opens new horizons for metamaterial-enabled photonics, or metaphotonics. Recently emerged field of Mie-resonant metaphotonics (also called "Mie-tronics") employs resonances in high-index dielectric nanoparticles and dielectric metasurfaces and aiming for novel applications of the subwavelength optics and photonics, benefiting from low material losses and optically-induced magnetic response. In this talk, I will review the recent advances in the fields of metamaterials, metaphotonics, and metasurfaces related to our research at ANU in Canberra.
