“…[13][14][15][16][17] Active functionalities have been demonstrated on the basis of hybridization of a silicon metasurface with a liquid crystal, 18 two photon absorption on silicon metasurfaces 19,20 and nonlinear optomechanical reconfiguration in a free-standing silicon membrane metasurface. 21 By virtue of their compositionally-controlled high-index, low-loss characteristics, which extend over a broad spectral range from the visible to long-wave infrared, and can moreover be reversibly switched (electrically or optically) in a non-volatile fashion, the chalcogenides (binary and ternary sulphides, selenides, and tellurides) provide an exceptionally adaptable material base for the realization of optically reconfigurable meta-devices. Their phase-change propertiesreversible transitions between amorphous and crystalline states with markedly different optical and electronic properties-have been utilized for decades in optical data storage and more recently in electronic phase-change RAM.…”

“…We predicted that it would exhibit a giant nonlinear optical response and nonlinear asymmetric transmission with a forward/backward optical extinction driven by resonant optomechanical forces in a structure comprised of dissimilar dielectric nanobars on a flexible membrane. As we have already noted above, we experimentally demonstrated highly nonlinear, dielectric, optomechanical metamaterials two years later [71], thereby offering a path to fast, compact and energyefficient all-optical metadevices. In 2016 we demonstrated an all-dielectric phase-change reconfigurable metasurface [102].…”

“…They can also be reconfigured by the light-induced forces that occur between elements of illuminated metamolecules. We have shown this in both plasmonic [70] and dielectric metamaterial nanostructures [71]. It is now clear that the nonlinear, switching, electro-optical and magneto-optical characteristics of nano-optomechanical metamaterials can surpass those of natural media by orders of magnitude.…”
