Meta-optics based on optically-resonant dielectric nanostructures is a rapidly developing research field with many potential applications. Halide perovskite metasurfaces emerged recently as a novel platform for meta-optics, and they offer unique opportunities for control of light in optoelectronic devices. Here we employ the generalized Kerker conditions to overlap electric and magnetic Mie resonances in each meta-atom of MAPbBr3 perovskite metasurface and demonstrate broadband suppression of reflection down to 4%. We reveal also that metasurface nanostructuring is also beneficial for the enhancement of photoluminescence. Our results may be useful for applications of nanostructured halide perovskites in photovoltaics and semi-transparent multifunctional metadevices where reflection reduction is important for their high efficiency.

In this paper, we propose a new approach for realizing antireflection coating using metamaterials. In this approach, a subwavelength array of metallic pillars (with square cross-section) is used for implementing antireflection coating. The effective impedance of the array can be duly adjusted by the size and distance of pillars. Therefore, we design the effective impedance of the antireflection coating to be the geometrical mean of the upper and lower mediums impedance and we choose its height to be a quarter of operating wavelength. Consequently, the reflection vanishes at the desired frequency and fractional bandwidth of 56% is achieved with a criterion of 10% reflectance (the refractive index of the substrate is assumed to be 4). The proposed structure is symmetric in both directions. So, it is not sensitive to the polarization of the incident wave at normal incidence. Furthermore, we show that using the multilayer Chebyshev matching transformer of transmission line theory increases the bandwidth of the antireflection up to 107% at the expense of pass-band ripples. This structure can be used from very low frequencies up to infrared regime by appropriate scaling.

We show that it is possible to achieve a perfect impedance matching by designing an antireflection temporal medium, which is omnidirectional and frequency-independent in an ultra-wide band. Our approach is an extension of the antireflection temporal coating by Pacheco-Pe~na et al [Optica 7, 323 (2020)]. We demonstrate that a specially-engineered multi-stage discrete or continuous temporal changing in the permittivity of the temporal medium allows ultra-wideband reflectionless wave propagation, which has been confirmed analytically and numerically. As an illustrative example for application, the proposed approach is applied to match a dielectric slab with free space for an ultra-wideband pulse.
Recently, we proposed a metasurface design for chiral sensing that (i) results in enhanced chiroptical signals by more than two orders of magnitude for ultrathin, subwavelength, chiral samples over a uniform and accessible area, (ii) allows for compl ete measurements of the total chirality (magnitude and sign of both its real and imaginary part), and (iii) offers the possibility for a crucial signal reversal (excitation with reversed polarization) that enables chirality measurements in an absolute manner, i.e., without the need for sample removal. Our design is based on the anisotropic response of the metasurface, rather than the superchirality of the generated near-fields, as in most contemporary nanophotonic-based chiral sensing approaches. Here, we derive analytically, and verify numerically, simple formulas that provide insight to the sensing mechanism and explain how anisotropic metasurfaces, in general, offer additional degrees of freedom with respect to their isotropic counterparts. We provide a detailed discussion of the key functionalities and benefits of our proposed design and we demonstrate practical measurement schemes for the unambiguous determination of an unknown chirality. Last, we provide the design principles towards broadband operation - from near-infrared to near-ultraviolet frequencies - opening the way for highly sensitive nanoscale chiroptical spectroscopy.
The improvement of light-emitting diodes (LEDs) is one of the major goals of optoelectronics and photonics research. While emission rate enhancement is certainly one of the targets, in this regard, for LED integration to complex photonic devices, one would require to have, additionally, precise control of the wavefront of the emitted light. Metasurfaces are spatial arrangements of engineered scatters that may enable this light manipulation capability with unprecedented resolution. Most of these devices, however, are only able to function properly under irradiation of light with a large spatial coherence, typically normally incident lasers. LEDs, on the other hand, have angularly broad, Lambertian-like emission patterns characterized by a low spatial coherence, which makes the integration of metasurface devices on LED architectures extremely challenging. A novel concept for metasurface integration on LED is proposed, using a cavity to increase the LED spatial coherence through an angular collimation. Due to the resonant character of the cavity, extending the spatial coherence of the emitted light does not come at the price of any reduction in the total emitted power. The experimental demonstration of the proposed concept is implemented on a GaP LED architecture including a hybrid metallic-Bragg cavity. By integrating a silicon metasurface on top we demonstrate two different functionalities of these compact devices: directional LED emission at a desired angle and LED emission of a vortex beam with an orbital angular momentum. The presented concept is general, being applicable to other incoherent light sources and enabling metasurfaces designed for plane waves to work with incoherent light emitters.
Actively tunable and reconfigurable wavefront shaping by optical metasurfaces poses a significant technical challenge often requiring unconventional materials engineering and nanofabrication. Most wavefront-shaping metasurfaces can be considered loca l in that their operation depends on the responses of individual meta-units. In contrast, nonlocal metasurfaces function based on the modes supported by many adjacent meta-units, resulting in sharp spectral features but typically no spatial control of the outgoing wavefront. Recently, nonlocal metasurfaces based on quasi-bound states in the continuum have been shown to produce designer wavefronts only across the narrow bandwidth of the supported Fano resonance. Here, we leverage the enhanced light-matter interactions associated with sharp Fano resonances to explore the active modulation of optical spectra and wavefronts by refractive index tuning and mechanical stretching. We experimentally demonstrate proof-of-principle thermo-optically tuned nonlocal metasurfaces made of silicon, and numerically demonstrate nonlocal metasurfaces that thermo-optically switch between distinct wavefront shapes. This meta-optics platform for thermally reconfigurable wavefront-shaping requires neither unusual materials and fabrication nor active control of individual meta-units.
