“…Figure 3 e shows one type of polarization rotator based on coupling of waveguide mode and plasmonic mode. [ 100 ] By combining the contribution of both the LSPR and surface plasmons polaritons (SPPs), arbitrary rotation angle has been accomplished by simply modulating the thickness of the S-shaped through apertures in silver fi lm. Particularly, a near-complete rotation (90°) at wavelength 1089 nm was obtained at a 245-nm-thickness silver fi lm (Figure 3 f).…”

Metasurfaces, two‐dimensional versions of metamaterials, retain the great capabilities of three‐dimensional counterparts in manipulating electromagnetic wave behaviors, while reducing the challenges in fabrication. By judiciously engineering parameters of individual building blocks (such as geometry, size, and material) and selecting specific design algorithms, metasurfaces are promising to replace conventional electromagnetic elements in nanoplasmonic/photonic devices. Significantly, such concept can be readily promoted to other disciplines, such as acoustics, thermal physics, and seismology. In this article, the latest advances in full control of electromagnetic waves with metasurfaces are briefly reviewed from a functionality perspective. A broad avenue towards real‐life applications of metamaterials has been opened up, although they are still at their infant stage. At the end, several promising approaches are suggested to extend the applications of metasurfaces.

“…In 2008, Li et al achieved 45°polarization rotation of the zero-order transmission with a single-layer perforated Lshaped structure [12]. Very recently, by tuning the excitation of localized surface plasmons (LSPs) and surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs), 90°polarization rotation has been reported with a single-layer perforated structure [13]. However, the PCE of this 90°polarization rotator is lower than 0.5.…”

Efficient Broadband Transmissive 90° Polarization Rotation Using a Single Layer of L-shaped Particles Inside a Glass Cube

We realize 90°polarization rotation with both high polarization conversion efficiency and broad bandwidth by using a single layer of L-shaped particles inside a glass cube. The simulation results show that Fabry-Perot resonance effect enhances the transmission for both co-polarization and crosspolarization light in the L-shaped layer. And the copolarization electric field component has been suppressed in the far field because of the destructive interference. The simulation results also show that the spectral band of peak polarization rotation can be shifted by changing the size parameters. This broadband polarization rotation mechanism may be very useful in designing polarization rotators.

“…One is as shown in Figure 3a, which is an enhanced optical rotator of the zero-order transmited electromagnetic waves through a silver ilm with an array of perforated S-shaped holes [36]. The fundamental mechanisms of these kinds of polarization rotators are as follows: the incident wave interacts with the subwavelength structure and creates orthogonal polarized component due to the surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs), or localized surface plasmons (LSPs), or both.…”

Polarization state is an important characteristic of electromagnetic waves. The arbitrary control of the polarization state of such wave has atracted great interest in the scientiic community because of the wide range of modern optical applications that such control can aford. Recent advances in metamaterials provide an alternative method of realizing arbitrary manipulation of polarization state of electromagnetic waves in nanoscale via ultrathin, miniaturized, and easily integrable designs. In this chapter, we give a review of recent developments on polarization state manipulation of electromagnetic waves in metamaterials and discuss their applications in nanophotonics, such as polarization converter, wavefront controller, information coding, and so on.
