Polarization switching of quasi-trapped modes and near field enhancement in bianisotropic all-dielectric metasurfaces


الملخص بالإنكليزية

A general strategy for the realization of electric and magnetic quasi-trapped modes located at the same spectral position is presented. This strategys application makes it possible to design metasurfaces allowing switching between the electric and magnetic quasi-trapped modes by changing the polarization of the incident light wave. The developed strategy is based on two stages: the application of the dipole approximation for determining the conditions required for the implementation of trapped modes and the creation of the energy channels for their excitation by introducing a weak bianisotropy in nanoparticles. Since excitation of trapped modes results in a concentration of electric and magnetic energies in the metasurface plane, the polarization switching provides possibilities to change and control the localization and distribution of optical energy at the sub-wavelength scale. We demonstrate a practical method for spectral tuning of quasi-trapped modes in metasurfaces composed of nanoparticles with a pre-selected shape. As an example, the optical properties of a metasurface composed of silicon triangular prisms are analyzed and discussed.
