Abstract
Abstract In this review, the nexus of nanophotonics and quantum science is considered. This nexus offers a wealth of applications and novel fundamental effects. Such an interdisciplinary approach may serve as a starting point for developing groundbreaking technologies. Several new directions in quantum nanophotonics are addressed, including strong light–matter coupling, bound states in the continuum, topological photonics, metasurfaces and photon sources, and levitated optomechanics. This review hopefully will foster the enhanced interaction between the nanophotonics and quantum science communities. Such a synergy will lead to the realization of novel communication, sensing, and information processing systems.
