Mie resonance
Mie resonance is the resonant enhancement of light scattering by particles comparable in size to the wavelength, named after Gustav Mie, who solved the problem in 1908.
Mie resonances in dielectric nanoparticles
Mie resonances in dielectric nanoparticles are electromagnetic resonances arising when the light wavelength inside a high-refractive-index particle becomes comparable to its size, producing strong electric and magnetic scattering; they underpin all-dielectric metaphotonics.
Mie scattering
Mie scattering, also known as Lorenz–Mie theory or the Mie solution, is the exact analytical solution of Maxwell's equations for how light scatters from a homogeneous sphere of any size.
Mie-resonant dielectric metasurfaces
Mie-resonant dielectric metasurfaces are planar arrays of high-index dielectric resonators whose optical response is governed by Mie resonances, enabling metalenses, holography, and biosensing with low loss.
Mie-resonant dielectric nanoparticle lasers
Mie-resonant dielectric nanoparticle lasers are nanoscale lasers in which a subwavelength high-refractive-index dielectric particle serves as the resonator, lasing on its electric and magnetic Mie resonances.
