Overview
Prof. Dr. Shaojun Wang is a Full Professor and Ph.D. supervisor in the School of Optoelectronic Science and Engineering at Soochow University, where he also serves as Deputy Director of the Ministry of Education Key Laboratory of Modern Optical Technologies and as a member of the School's 3rd Academic Committee. Since earning his Ph.D. in 2016, he has focused on resonant nanophotonics, using plasmonic and all-dielectric metasurfaces to develop water-float-assisted, non-destructive transfer processes and micro-spectroscopy characterization methods. His work investigates photonic phenomena driven by nonlocal lattice resonances, targeting high-efficiency light generation, ultrasensitive optical sensing, and multidimensional optical detection.

Recent Publications on Resonant Metasurfaces (Past 3 Years)

Research Spotlight: we introduce a rotatable diatomic-lattice metasurface that maximizes Q-factor, emitter-field overlap, and geometric-phase control. Rotating eccentric nanodisks tunes linear polarization with stable spectra; geometric-phase supercells yield directional circular polarized emission.

Research Spotlight: we demonstrate unidirectional, strongly Purcell-enhanced exciton emission from ultrathin InSe by embedding it in an asymmetric Au nanocube dimer-on-mirror nanocavity that launches light efficiently into an on-chip Si nanowire waveguide.

Research Spotlight: a c-Si metasurface on quartz diffractively redirects substrate-trapped broadband (RGB) fluorescence into free space, boosting photoluminescence by 2.5× and improving emission uniformity.

Research Spotlight: we demonstrate a scalable wet-transfer fabrication method for hybrid Mie–plasmonic metasurfaces that immobilizes monocrystalline Si nanoantenna arrays on ultrasmooth gold, enabling oxide- and nanogap-mediated hybrid modes (including BICs) with strong field enhancement for active metasurface applications (e.g., MEMS and LiDAR).

Research Spotlight: we present a lattice- and multipolar-engineering strategy that boosts out-coupling and directional emission from quasi-BICs in monocrystalline silicon metasurfaces, turning otherwise weakly emitting high-Q resonances into brighter, device-relevant light sources for compact LEDs, lasers, and on-chip nanophotonics.

Research Spotlight: the water-floating (float-off) transfer is the key advance in this work. It firstly enables low-loss c-Si metasurfaces fabricated on SOI to be reliably transferred and integrated a flexible metasurface membrane onto a wide range of functional substrates (e.g., quartz, glass, PDMS, lithium niobate, and device stacks), greatly expanding integration options while preserving optical performance.
