Abstract:
We present the design and fabrication advances on active lithium niobate metasurfaces. We determine by numerical calculations a metasurface design with electro-magnetic resonances in the visible and near-infrared, by taking into account the constraints for fabrication on thin films of lithium niobate. We suggest that the optical properties of the metasurface can be switched using the electro-optical properties of lithium niobate.

Active metasurfaces provide unique advantages for on-demand light manipulation at a subwavelength scale for emerging visual applications of displays, holographic projectors, optical sensors, light detection and ranging (LiDAR). These applications put stringent requirements on switching speed, cycling duration, electro-optical controllability, modulation contrast, optical efficiency and operation voltages.

Abstract:
An active amplifying metasurface based on a quantum-cascade gain material at 2.7 THz is studied. The metasurface is first evaluated as the active component of an external cavity laser with excellent beam quality and frequency tunability from 2.55–2.8 THz. Amplification and absorption of the metasurface alone are then separately measured at a single frequency using a probe signal from a CO2-pumped gas laser operating at 2.743 THz. The metasurface reflectance vs bias is measured and compared with expectations from non-equilibrium Green’s function simulations of the quantum-cascade gain material

Abstract:
An active elastic metasurface has more flexibility than a passively modulated elastic metasurface, owing to the manipulation of the phase gradient that can be realized without changing the geometrical configuration. In this study, a negative proportional feedback control system was employed to provide positive active control stiffness for adaptive unit cells, with the aim of achieving the active modulation of the phase gradient. The relationship between the control gain and the phase velocity of the flexural wave was derived, and the transfer coefficients and phase shifts of the flexural wave

AbstractActive metasurfaces, in which the optical property of a metasurface device can be controlled by external stimuli, have attracted great research interest recently. For optical switching and modulation applications, high-performance active metasurfaces need to show high transparency, high power efficiency, as well as ultrafast switching and large-scale fabrication capability. This paper reports Au/VO2-based active metasurfaces meeting the requirements above. Centimeter-scale Au/VO2 metasurfaces are fabricated by polystyrene sphere colloidal crystal self-assembly. The devices show optical

Abstract Active metasurfaces have attracted increased attention due to their capabilities in function switching and wavefront shaping. Here we develop a new paradigm for active control of metasurfaces via integrating a tunable and programmable spintronic terahertz emitter (STE). While compatible with almost all conventional materials for metasurfaces, the STE can empower the passive metasurfaces to be active with increased flexibility. For the sake of illustration, a STE integrated metasurface quarter-wave plate is demonstrated, which enables broadband full polarization control over the entire

Abstract:
AbstractAchieving active tunability in metasurfaces remains a critical challenge, with conventional local metasurfaces limited by dispersive wavefront deflection and broad resonances that lack spectral selectivity. In contrast, nonlocal metasurfaces exhibit high selectivity, offering a promising platform for dynamic functionality. Here, an active nonlocal metasurface with exceptional spectral and spatial selectivity is experimentally demonstrated, leveraging the physics of bound states in the continuum and coupling phase. The metasurface achieves a deflected beam with a quality factor of 22 an

Abstract Reprogrammable metasurfaces enable active modulation of light at subwavelength scales. Operating in the microwave, terahertz, and mid-infrared ranges, these metasurfaces find applications in communications, sensing, and imaging. Electrically tunable metasurfaces operating in the near-infrared (NIR) range are crucial for LiDAR applications. Achieving a NIR reprogrammable metasurface requires individual gating of nano-antennas, emphasizing effective heat management to preserve device performance. To this end, here we propose an electrically tunable Au-vanadium dioxide (VO2) metasurface

Abstract The emergence of metasurfaces has enabled lightweight, compact imaging with degrees of freedom which previously required complex optical setups to achieve, such as polarization, wave vector, and spectrum. To date, most metasurface-enabled imaging systems have thus far been ‘passive’, and therefore subject to fundamental information and thickness limits set by the coupling of light to their sensor arrays. We discuss the use of active metasurfaces in low form-factor and low pixel-count imaging systems and introduce a prototypical lensless imaging system concept which employs an active m
