N1 - Funding Information:
This work has been supported by Nazarbayev University Faculty Development Competitive Research Grant No. 090118FD5349 (“Super transmitters, radiators and lenses via photonic synthetic matter”). Funding from MES RK state-targeted program BR05236454 is also acknowledged.
Funding Information:
All these inherently fascinating phenomena being vital in disruptive quantum applications, have recently attracted huge funding interest; indeed, along with 5G communications and Artificial Intelligence, is one of the technologies that presidents of both, countries and companies, love to cite5. In particular, impressive State initiatives have been taken6, echoing major investments from Google, IBM, Intel, Microsoft and other industry giants, that are expected to ignite extensive quantum engineering research efforts in the near future. Already, National Science Foundation (NSF) is efficiently supporting research teams in quest of suitable hybrid materials used in quantum signal processing and computing7 while US Army Research Office (ARO) is currently funding studies on growing of matter for noise suppression towards high fidelity qubit operations8. Finally, several Multidisciplinary University Research Initiatives (MURIs) are executed with main objective to reformulate the range of light-matter interactions for quantum optics and photonic configurations9.

N2 - Some of the most influential players from academia and industry have recently expressed concrete interest for quantum engineering applications, especially for new concepts in controlling and processing the quantum signals traveling into condensed matter. An important operation when manipulating particle beams behaving as matter waves concerns filtering with respect to their own energy; such an objective can be well-served by a single planar inclusion of specific size and texture embedded into suitable background. A large number of inclusion/host combinations from realistic materials are tried and the optimally sharp resonance regimes, which correspond to performance limits for such a simplistic structure, are carefully identified. These results may inspire efforts towards the generalization of the adopted approach and the translation of sophisticated inverse design techniques, already successfully implemented for nanophotonic setups, into quantum arena.
