Revealing topological phase in Pancharatnam–Berry metasurfaces using mesoscopic electrodynamics

Abstract: Relying on the local orientation of nanostructures, Pancharatnam–Berry metasurfaces are currently enabling a new generation of polarization-sensitive optical devices. A systematical mesoscopic description of topological metasurfaces is developed, providing a deeper understanding of the physical mechanisms leading to the polarization-dependent breaking of translational symmetry in contrast with propagation phase effects. These theoretical results, along with interferometric experiments contribute to the develop… Show more

“…[ 85–89 ] Further, two arrays of anisotropic resonators with relative angles, continuous phase control from 0 to 2 π can achieve circularly polarized light in Pancharatnam–Berry metasurfaces. [ 90 ] Circularly polarized light can also be generated from metasurfaces of resonators with spatially varied orientations, where the amplitude of the scattered waves can be controlled by resonator shapes and phase‐by‐orientation angles (Figure 3a,b). [ 91–96 ] Plasmonic metasurfaces also attract extensive research interest in color generation with resolutions beyond the diffraction limits (Figure 3a,b).…”

“…Such metasurfaces allow manipulating light on a subwavelength regime, changing properties such as phase, amplitude and polarization. They have been recently exploited to realize interesting effects in the field of flat optics 15 , 16 , topological photonics 17 and generation of geometrical phases 18 , 19 . Recently, the focus has shifted to vertical stacking of patterned layers 20 where the interlayer distance and the layers number may act as a new degree of freedom to modify the optical band structure.…”

“…They are flat optical components made of arrangements of scattering objects (meta-atoms) of subwavelength size and periodicity. Currently, four light modulation mechanisms are used to create metasurfaces: light scattering from resonant nanoparticles 36,37 ,geometric phase occurring during polarization conversion (Pancharatnam-Berry phase) 38 , accumulated propagation phase in pillars with controllable effective Refractive Index (ERI) 39 and the topological phase in vicinity of singularities 40 . Usually, MSs comprise inherently passive components, designed to perform a fixed optical functionality after fabrication.…”
