Resumo: The field of two-dimensional (2D) materials-based nanophotonics has been growing at a rapid pace, triggered by the ability to design nanophotonic systems with in situ control, unprecedented number of degrees of freedom, and to build material heterostructures from the bottom up with atomic precision. A wide palette of polaritonic classes have been identified, comprising ultraconfined optical fields, even approaching characteristic length-scales of a single atom. These advances have been a real boost for the emerging field of quantum nanophotonics, where the quantum mechanical nature of the electrons and polaritons and their interactions become relevant. Examples include quantum nonlocal effects, ultrastrong light–matter interactions, Cherenkov radiation, access to forbidden transitions, hydrodynamic effects, single-plasmon nonlinearities, polaritonic quantization, topological effects, and so on. In addition to these intrinsic quantum nanophotonic phenomena, 2D material systems can also be used as sensitive probes for the quantum properties of the material that carries the nanophotonics modes or quantum materials in its vicinity. Here, polaritons act as a probe for otherwise invisible excitations, for example, in superconductors, or as a new tool to monitor the existence of Berry curvature in topological materials and superlattice effects in twisted 2D materials. In this Perspective, we present an overview of the emergent field of 2D-material quantum nanophotonics and provide a future perspective on the prospects of both fundamental emergent phenomena and emergent quantum technologies, such as quantum sensing, single-photon sources, and quantum emitters manipulation. We address four main implications: (i) quantum sensing, featuring polaritons to probe superconductivity and explore new electronic transport hydrodynamic behaviors, (ii) quantum technologies harnessing single-photon generation, manipulation, and detection using 2D materials, (iii) polariton engineering with quantum materials enabled by twist angle and stacking order control in van der Waals heterostructures, and (iv) extreme light−matter interactions enabled by the strong confinement of light at atomic level by 2D materials, which provide new tools to manipulate light fields at the nanoscale (e.g., quantum chemistry, nonlocal effects, high Purcell enhancement).
