Abstract
Abstract The mid‐wave infrared (MWIR) spectral region (3–5 µm) is important to a vast variety of applications in imaging, sensing, spectroscopy, surgery, and optical communications. Efficient third‐harmonic generation (THG), converting light from the MWIR range into the near‐infrared, a region with mature optical detection and manipulation technologies, offers the opportunity to mitigate a commonly recognized limitation of current MWIR systems. In this work, the possibility of boosting THG in the MWIR through a metasurface design is presented. Specifically, a 30‐fold enhancement in a highly nonlinear phase‐change material Ge 2 Sb 2 Se 4 Te 1 (GSST) is demonstrated by patterning arrays of subwavelength cylinders supporting a magnetic dipolar resonance. The unprecedented broadband transparency, large refractive index, and remarkably high nonlinear response, together with unique phase‐change properties, make GSST‐based metasurfaces an appealing solution for reconfigurable and ultra‐compact nonlinear devices operating in the MWIR.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
