The review focuses on recent advances in TMD-based strong light-matter coupling, including the various optical structures strongly coupled to TMDs, several intriguing properties, and relevant device applications of TMD polaritons

Kerr optical parametric oscillation in silicon nitride microrings pumped near 780 nm generates > 150 wavelengths across the green gap (532-633 nm) with <1 MHz linewidths using only four devices.

We demonstrate ultra-sensitive photothermal microscopy with whispering gallery mode microtoroid resonators, detecting single 5 nm quantum dots with SNR > 10⁴ and achieving a minimum heat dissipation detection of 0.75 pW, which is below that from single dye molecules.

Electrically creating bi-layer ferroelectric domains in a thin-film lithium niobate waveguide enables high-efficiency second-harmonic generation and photon-pair generation.

We demonstrate an effective additive engineering strategy to construct Sb₂S₃ indoor photovoltaics (IPVs) with 17.55% efficiency under 1000 lux WLED illumination, enabling high-performance IPV minimodules for powering IoT wireless electronics.

We demonstrate a computational on-chip spectrometer using electrochromic filter-based computational spectral units that can be electrochemically modulated to increase the efficient sampling number for higher spectral resolution.

This manuscript demonstrates a high-sensitivity cavity optomechanical magnetometer by depositing a thin film of FeGaB magnetostrictive material onto a SiO₂ microdisk resonator, achieving a peak sensitivity of 1.68 pT Hz^−1/2.

Giant infrared bulk photovoltaic effect is observed in tellurene and applied in neuromodulation.

Based on the chiral-dependent near-field modes within dielectric achiral structures, a broadband circularly polarized light photodetector with an impressive discrimination ratio is presented.

The continuous evolution of the shape of the surface Fermi arc induces an electromagnetic pulling force that operates over a broad range of angles, effectively attracting a variety of small particles.

A photonic force microscope has been developed with a trapped lanthanide-doped crystal detecting forces as small as 110 aN. This opens new prospects for force sensing in the physical sciences.
