Abstract

En 中文
Empowering nanophotonic devices via artificial intelligence (AI) has revolutionized both scientific research methodologies and engineering practices, addressing critical challenges in the design and optimization of complex systems. Traditional methods for developing nanophotonic devices are often constrained by the high dimensionality of design spaces and computational inefficiencies. This review highlights how AI-driven techniques provide transformative solutions by enabling the efficient exploration of vast design spaces, optimizing intricate parameter systems, and predicting the performance of advanced nanophotonic materials and devices with high accuracy. By bridging the gap between computational complexity and practical implementation, AI accelerates the discovery of novel nanophotonic functionalities. Furthermore, we delve into emerging domains, such as diffractive neural networks and quantum machine learning, emphasizing their potential to exploit photonic properties for innovative strategies. The review also examines AI's applications in advanced engineering areas, e.g., optical image recognition, showcasing its role in addressing complex challenges in device integration. By facilitating the development of highly efficient, compact optical devices, these AI-powered methodologies are paving the way for next-generation nanophotonic systems with enhanced functionalities and broader applications.
