“…The n value change (Δ n ≈ 0.5) is over one order of magnitude higher than that of other photorefractive materials. [ 88 ] The initial graphene metamaterial shows a low k and its k value changes by 0.25 as the power is about 10 µW, offering a method to achieve effective amplitude modulation. In addition, laser tuning is able to provide localized material change with a high resolution in the nanometer range, which can be further controlled by the numerical aperture of the focusing objective, the wavelength of the laser beam and the laser power.…”

Graphene is given high expectation due to their unique properties and advantages and has revolutionized different research fields and leads to enormous applications. However, monolayer graphene shows limited absorption due to the ultrathin thickness, which compromises the optical modulation capability. Therefore, graphene metamaterials consisting of alternatively stacked graphene and dielectric layers or graphene layer combined with conventional metamaterial structures are proposed as artificially structured materials to exploit both graphene's unique material properties and nanostructure capability of metamaterials to achieve strong optical modulations. The recent breakthrough in experimental fabrication of graphene metamaterials, in particular the solution‐based method which allows large‐area fabrication of graphene metamaterials with monolayer‐thickness controllability and nanometer surface roughness, enables extraordinary optical properties and opens various new possibilities both in research and manufacturing. In this comprehensive review, the concept of graphene metamaterials, the unique optical properties, and the enabling fabrication methods are demonstrated. The multifunctionality of graphene metamaterials offer a novel platform for manufacturing innovative optical and photonic devices with the advantages of broad working bandwidth, high efficiency, fast response, tunability, integrability, and low energy consumption. The review provides insights to future innovations for the booming graphene metamaterials and metaphotonic devices in the disciplines of optics, nanophotonics, and optoelectronics.

“…in silica, borate and tellurite glass matrices have been fabricated and investigated for their SHG and EO properties. Because of low loss and refractive index matching requirements, tellurite glasses with small concentrations of ferroelectric oxides are promising systems for second order non-linear effects [47].

The linear and non-linear properties of material have gained in both scientific interest and technological importance. Over the last few years, there has been much interest in developing materials with large nonlinearities in order to exploit their potential for use in ultrafast nonlinear optical devices. The different factors that play a role for controlling the refractive indices such as density, molar refraction, photon energy, coordination number, electronic polarizability, field strength of cations, bridging and nonbridging oxygen, and optical basicity are discussed in accordance with the obtained linear refractive index data. The nonlinear phenomena which include intensity dependent on refractive index, excitation energy, dispersion energy, optical energy, metallization criterion, second and third harmonic generations have been discussed. Finally, the optical application, viz. photonics, electro-optics, photo chromic and magneto-optics of the material have been studied.Keywords:Glass; linear; nonlinear indices; optical application
