Van der Waals (vdW) materials are particularly interesting for nanophotonics because of their unique optical and electronic properties. This talk will introduce BIC-driven metasurface concepts based on the prominent vdW materials hexagonal boron nitride and the transition metal dichalcogenide WS2, demonstrating broad spectral tunability, ultrasharp resonances, and strong light-matter coupling.enTechnology::600: TechnologyMerging bound states in the continuum and van der Waals materials for enhanced light-matter couplingConference Paper
