## Description

- description: Atomic-layer and two-dimensional (2D) materials have emerged as essential
    building blocks for next-generation quantum and semiconductor technologies, where
    atomic-scale control over light-matter interactions is critical. However, their
    inherently small interaction volume poses fundamental challenges for efficient
    integration into quantum and nanophotonic devices. Addressing this limitation
    requires the development of photonic platforms that can effectively enhance atomic-scale
    optical coupling. To this end, freestanding nanomembranes with extreme thinness
    and minimal radiative loss offer an ideal framework for integrating these materials
    into photonic systems. Here, we demonstrate an ultrathin photonic nanomembrane
    enabling atomic-scale control of light coupling. This architecture supports strong
    field confinement at the surface and significantly enhances light-matter interaction.
    Through the integration of atomic-layer dielectrics, we achieve Å-level thickness
    modulation, where each deposition cycle leads to an ultrafine shift of the high-Q
    resonance. High-resolution spatial mapping further confirms uniform and deterministic
    resonance tuning across the nanomembrane surface. Furthermore, by integrating
    a WS2 monolayer with the photonic nanomembrane, strong field localization within
    the monolayer and a significant emission enhancement are achieved. This approach
    offers a scalable and versatile route for atomic-scale light coupling, helping
    to overcome the limitations of conventional photonics and opening opportunities
    in quantum photonics, optoelectronics, and advanced semiconductor technologies.
