Plasmonic Fourier Surfaces Revisited: Relating Bandgaps with Bound States in the Continuum

Alexander A. Antonov, Connor Heimig, Hannah Niese +5

Periodically corrugated metal interfaces supporting surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) belong to the earliest nanoplasmonic platforms. Even simplest reliefs described by a few harmo…

Optical Control of Chirality by Ultrafast Symmetry Breaking in Membrane Metasurfaces

Nikita Glebov, Alena Mamonova, Olesia Pashina +7

Chirality underpins a wide range of light-matter interactions, yet methods for its dynamic control in photonic systems remain limited. Here, we demonstrate ultrafast all-optical co…

Rewritable Chirality of Metasurfaces with Permittivity-Asymmetric Flatband Quasi-Bound States in the Continuum

Tao Jiang, Haiyang Hu, Dmytro Gryb +4

Flatband eigenstates are widely applied to enhance angle-robust light-matter interactions in metaphotonics. However, controlling the polarization of flatbands remains challenging,…

Observation of Janus Chirality for Coherent Thermal Emission from Metasurfaces

Kaili Sun, Yangjian Cai, Maxim V. Gorkunov +2

Metasurfaces emerged as a powerful tool for controlling thermal radiation, yet achieving coherent emission with opposite circular handednesses remains a highly challenging problem.…

Nonlinear chiral light generation from resonant metasurfaces

Fangxing Lai, Jun Yin, Ivan Toftul +6

Chiral nonlinear response has been explored for decades due to its extreme sensitivity to molecular and structural dissymmetry. Conventional approaches often require bulky systems…

Topological Control of Polaritonic Flatbands in Anisotropic van der Waals Metasurfaces

Connor Heimig, Thomas Weber, Cristina Cruciano +9

Anisotropic van der Waals (vdW) materials exhibit direction-dependent optical and electronic properties, making them valuable for tailoring directional light-matter interactions. R…

Maximal optical chirality via mode coupling in bilayer metasurfaces

Brijesh Kumar, Ivan Toftul, Anshuman Kumar +2

Recent advances in the physics of resonant optical metasurfaces allowed to realize the so-called maximum chirality of planar structures by engineering their geometric parameters. H…

Chiral Nonlinear Polaritonics with van der Waals Metasurfaces

Connor Heimig, Alexander A. Antonov, Dmytro Gryb +10

In the strong-coupling regime, the interaction between light and matter reaches a hybridization state where the photonic and material components are inseparably linked. Using tailo…

Substrate-induced maximum optical chirality of planar dielectric structures

Maxim V. Gorkunov, Alexander A. Antonov, Alena V. Mamonova +2

Resonant dielectric planar structures can interact selectively with light of particular helicity thus providing an attractive platform for chiral flat optics. The absence of mirror…

Chiral Dichroism in Resonant Metasurfaces with Monoclinic Lattices

Ivan Toftul, Pavel Tonkaev, Kirill Koshelev +4

We demonstrate that chiral response can be achieved in resonant metasurfaces with a monoclinic lattice symmetry (the so-called Bravais oblique lattices) where the mirror symmetry i…
