Welcome to Season 2! This month, we're finding out how to solve equations with light. A recent study in Nature Nanotechnology uses ultrathin optical metagratings to solve integral equations in free space. Tune in to find out more...Featuring Andrea Cordaro (AMOLF, The Netherlands) and Alberto Moscatelli (Nature Nanotechnology)Hosted by Ankita Anirban (Nature Reviews Physics) and Cristiano Matricardi (Nature communications)Ref: Cordaro, A., Edwards, B., Nikkhah, V. et al. Solving integral equations in free space with inverse-designed ultrathin optical metagratings. Nat.
