Abstract
Nanostructured surfaces with designed optical functionalities, such as metasurfaces, allow efficient harvesting of light at the nanoscale, enhancing light-matter interactions for a wide variety of material combinations. Exploiting light-driven matter excitations in these artificial materials opens up a new dimension in the conversion and management of energy at the nanoscale. In this review, we outline the impact, opportunities, applications, and challenges of optical metasurfaces in converting the energy of incoming photons into frequency-shifted photons, phonons, and energetic charge carriers. A myriad of opportunities await for the utilization of the converted energy. Here we cover the most pertinent aspects from a fundamental nanoscopic viewpoint all the way to applications.

Abstract
The miniaturization and integration of optoelectronic devices require progressive size reduction of active layers, resulting in less optical absorption and lower quantum efficiency. In this work, we demonstrate that introducing a metasurface made of hybrid organic-inorganic perovskite (HOIP) can significantly enhance broadband absorption and improve photon-to-electron conversion, which roots from exciting Mie resonances together with suppressing optical transmission. On the basis of the HOIP metasurface, a broadband photodetector has been fabricated where photocurrent boosts more than 10 times in the frequency ranging from ultraviolet to visible. The device response time is less than 5.1 μs at wavelengths 380, 532, and 710 nm, and the relevant 3 dB bandwidth is over 0.26 MHz. Moreover, this photodetector has been applied as a signal receiver for transmitting 2D color images in broadband optical communication. These results accentuate the practical applications of HOIP metasurfaces in novel optoelectronic devices for broadband optical communication.
