In recent years, interest in infrared (IR) imaging has grown, motivated by applications in surveillance, quality control and healthcare. However, conventional IR imaging devices are limited by their low temperature operations and high-noise levels. Nonlinear metasurfaces offer a promising platform for up-conversion IR imaging, potentially allowing multi-color IR imaging in compact devices, at room temperature. Here, we demonstrate up-conversion IR imaging by employing a nonlocal lithium niobate metasurface supporting guided mode resonances. Driven by the resonant enhancement of the incident field, we demonstrate up-conversion of short-wave IR images at 1530 nm to visible images at 550 nm. Our study has important applications in the future development of compact night vision instruments and sensor devices.
