ABSTRACT When arranged in a metasurface, the collective enhancement of field interactions within scattering elements enables precise control over the incident light phase and amplitude. In this work, we analyze collective multipolar resonances in metasurfaces that arise from the spatially extended nature of electromagnetic interactions within these structures, with particular emphasis on MXene metasurfaces. This collective scattering leads to unique and tunable resonance behaviors that reach beyond the simple dipolar approximations, thus enabling advanced manipulation of light at subwavelength scales. We also explore resonances in the scatterers and metasurfaces made of different materials, categorizing them into lossy materials, including transition metal dichalcogenides and conventional metals, and high‐refractive‐index materials, such as silicon. We observe the excitation of MXene multipolar resonances across the visible‐ and infrared‐wavelength spectra and demonstrate their control through the design of scattering elements of the metasurface. We show that periodic lattice arrays support strong localized resonances through the collective response of individual nanoresonators and that one can control multipolar resonances by engineering metasurface nanoresonators and their distribution.
