Abstract
All-dielectric metasurfaces have been attracting much attention. Low optical losses and a huge variety of optical modes provide unique possibilities for light manipulation at the nanoscale. Recent studies showed that the magneto-optical effects in such metasurfaces are enormously enhanced. Moreover, it is possible to observe novel magneto-optical effects that are absent in smooth films. Excitation of particular photonic resonances makes it possible to design the magneto-optical interaction by the metasurface design. This opens up broad opportunities for magneto-photonic metasurface applications, including optomagnetism, light modulation, sensing, magnetometry, etc.
